| Quote: Rogues Gallery "I've edited my post above to show the reasons.
Higham was never a consistently good performer for Wigan in his three seasons at the club.
His errors and penalties conceded were disgraceful for a so called top class hooker. His passing was abysmal.
So that leaves his scooting and metres from dummy half.
Riddell is doing better at that ( see the stats)
Higham was a badge kissing scarf waving failure.
Higha is the third best hooker at Warrington.
Do you not think that their improvement in form has coincided with Highams absence?'"
Statistics damn Statistics.... If only the game was played like a game of Topps Trumps... I can only say what I see rather than spouting stats... micky had his faults as do all players but he was effective and was very dangerous at times in games... Like I said many on here were calling for him to stay (along with Stevo & Eddie)... Could the same be said for Piggy on the form he has shown up until the last few weeks??

This witch hunt against him from certain sections is stupid. His form is improving and has never been that bad anyway.
We've had and have far worse players.'"
Not a chance............what games have you been watching? Riddell needs benching or dropping if only to give him the impetus to get fit. Leuleui starting and riddell off the bench......otherwise your other option is bench leului (which is FAR from deserved), or start with Sam and Tommy in the middle, and then mess around with the halves again just to give fat boy a breather after hes knackered from 20 minutes of hooking ....and as we saw early season, we dont want to go for the option of messing with the halves AGAIN!
Of all the options I prefer the first one. .....Gleese to S/o....Sam to S/h...Tommy Leu to Hooker.....fat boy keeping the bench warm if hes lucky.
The only other feasible option is Flannagan on the bench to interchange with the pig....but frankly i dont think flannagan is up to the standard required to play as a SL interchange hooker yet, just as much as the pig isnt the required standard to be a starting SL hooker!

39110_1363272058.jpg Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

I understand what your saying and partially agree but you need to be a little more open minded, Riddell has improved vastly since the Celtic game IMO. The Hull KR game he was not bad tbh just McIlorum had a really good game.

I agree with your comments...lets hope he just gets better and better, he's some way to go to meet the expectations I/we have had before he arrived... + he's here for another two years so lets he does!!

| Going back to the squad, Catalans will have all their big men on the field Friday, we need to do the same. Pryce and Mossop must play.
If Hansen has damaged the ligaments in his hand/wrist then he shouldn't play. A bad knock could make it worse and really put him out for weeks.
Hansen and Flanagan to miss out unless there are other injuries we don't know about.

3076_1671446335.jpg SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

My thoughts exactly. We need to use Pryce effectively, get him running at their defence close to their line.

Wigan 178 - 64 Leeds
Wigan wins - 6 Leeds wins - 0[/color:1fnfdzuc]
I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubblegum.
Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight!

| We must keep check on Jean Philipe Baille he's been in absolutely superb for them in the centre's, he's incredibly strong and pretty quick and we must make sure he doesn't get any one on one's or we could be in trouble.

If we keep and respect the ball and strave them of possesion, their big forwards will tire and it will be happy days.
Simple but true.......but not always easy has prevoius games have suggested

I also think that we should avoid getting into a forward battle and look to attack and move the ball around the edges...

Kick early, make them return from deep.
Not pretty, but it should work.
