I can accept failure, but I can't accept not trying. Michael Jordan Daily Mail - Wigan Athletic No known famous fans. Town apparently goes into hibernation when rugby league season ends.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1956.jpeg

Quote: The Ginger Pearl "Knifes arent out for McIlorum just because hes had an off night, I've never rated him and I cant see anything in him (other than his defence) as to why people think hes so good? He constantly makes the wrong decision. I've lost count of the amount of times this year that he has tried the Kieron Cunningham barge over try and failed every single time. Its a waste of a tackle. '"


When you say you have never rated him you make it sound like he was 33 and not 23. Sam takes plenty of wrong options but is given the benefit of the doubt and rightly so. Not sure why MM doesn't get the same leeway. It seems he has to be the finished article and as good as someone like Buderous or Piggy when nearly 10 years younger than some.

I would have thought MM's Grand Final performance would have silenced his critics at least to some degree but apparently not. He's not the worlds greatest hooker but neither is he as poor as you make out and time is on his side.

You're not sure why MM isnt given the same leeway as Sam when it comes to decision making? Probably because Sam makes up with the wrong decisions he makes with absolutely spectacular plays of Rugby League, When has McIlorum ever done anything remotely like Sam has which would make fans give him leeway for always making wrong decisions?

Whats wrong with me saying i never rated him even though he is 23? He made his first team debut in 2007, thats 4 seasons ago, when would you like me to decide whether I think he is good enough to make it at Wigan? When he's 33? icon_rolleyes.gif

Yeah he's had one good game in the Grand Final good for him, do you think thats good enough? Are any of his other perforances on par with the GF performance?

Let me ask you this - if he was born in Sydney, would you want him at Wigan?

Anyway i've had my say on this, i think he is a very good defender but never a hooker in a million years, I would keep him at Wigan but not as a hooker. We need to sign a hooker for next year.

Thats the last i'll say on this with you because i've noticed you always get into debates with other users and never change your opinion no matter how wrong you are, always seem to get dragged into arguments, which is strange for a mod icon_ask.gif

And you are 100% right and will change your opinion on this? Give me a break. You have made your mind up.

As to being a mod that is about deleting/locking offensive or libellous stuff on here for me not precluding debate. It doesn't stop me from having strong opinions on anything. And I won't stop you or anyone else having the same. So lets have a proper debate about MM on another thread (which I will let you start) because we have hijacked this one.

Which means I almost forgot, top 3

Mossop just misses out.

PS

2 tries for Sam, pretty sure he made 3 and saved 2 with 2 x remendous tackles when we were only 12-6 up!

[quote="Headingley Rhino"]Great win yesterday at our place, there is no denying you are probably the best team in SL as you have proved it all year so I think it's justice done that you have got to Old Trafford. I thought wigan was excellent in the second half and showed why you guys are top dogs this year.:

[size=50:2fqgwsdo]"The mid-to-late 1980s and early-to-mid-1990s is the most successful period for the club to date, however, even without this glorious trophy laden period, Wigan would still have won more trophies than any other professional British rugby league club due to their successes throughout the club's history."[/size:2fqgwsdo]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_52674.jpg
