Could be a quality signing if he's used properly. Since he lost his aggression he's not been the same player. Wide on the right he could be a world beater.

I'm taking it he has been signed as back up anyway. Our 4 props when all fit next year will be fielden,prescott,mossop and lima. However we all know injuries happen so Lauaki will be there as cover I am taking it. I'd like to see us bring an experienced prop in (O'Hara?) to cover the gap left by Coleys pending retirement.

When did half the people on here become an expert in coaching all of a sudden? The Wigan coaching staff have obviously seen something in him and want too pursue his signing and in the past couple of season with IL at the helm we have not got much wrong IMO.

Dont write him off before hes even wore the cherry and white (If his signing is indeed true) We have already been half the cause Karl Price has turned out a flop with the constant boo boys on his back.

in IL we TRUST!.

I don't think we have been the cause of Pryce being a flop at all. All through his career he's been a player with a pea sized heart.

[quote="Mark"]Great game of rugby league. Fantastic atmosphere, Wigan were breathtaking and dominant in all areas for the first 25 minutes, coupled with us making alot of dumb mistakes,then fortunately they brought McIlorum on which helped us back into the game. I thought some of the tries we scored to get us within two we're out of this world stuff. Towards the end we had to force it a little and we had a few things go wrong, i.e Monas kick on the first for King and Solomona going off who was causing havoc. Wigan were clinical in their eventual execution of us. Proud of Wire today and gave us a little glimpse to the future. Silverwood was awful as per, but I expect no less. Tomkins is a world class player and by far the best english player in SL. Wigan are a champion side and would be a worthy winner of taking our title as challenge cup. Good luck over the next month and a bit.[/quote]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_23997.jpg

No but It obviously didnt help his progression at the club when his own fans are booing him does it?.

Without intent on derailing this thread my post was just pointing out that we should not write of a player before hes even played for us.

He's much better as a back row forward in my opinion. If the club want him to play prop it seems like a big risk because he's never looked any good in that position.

In response to your post

1. Yeah it is a forum and everyone is entitled to there own opinion I respect most of the people that post on this forum BUT everyone is writing of a player before hes even played for us. IL Wane & Madge have obviously seen potential in him so why cant the fans place trust in them 3? They was not moaning when we liften the Grand Final last season was they.


2. Karl Pryces try scoring record in his career suggest other wise maybe hes not a world beater but booing your own player on home soil is not obviously not going to help him.

Any professional sportsman should go out on to the pitch and give 100% every time they play. If a player is criticised, especially by his own fans, they should do everything to prove their ability. Karl Pryce did the complete opposite of this, and spent most of his time looking uninterested and stood with his hands on his hips. Pryce turned out to be a flop at Wigan because he didnt try hard enough, and then some fans got on his back. The final nail in Pryce's coffin had to be being allowed to play against us when on loan at Quins and his resulting performances in those games (especially the game at DW)

1 Madge is not here next season so i doubt he had anything to do with the signing IL is not a coach so is the signing down to Wane?

2 I dont agree with booing players, Pryce had so many chances and didn't step up to the mark all his tries my nan could have scored them either walk ins or against small wingers, look at goulding he is no world class winger but was 2nd top try scorer last season cause of the team around him another example is that bum Ade Gardner from saints he's gash but had a bag full of tries cause of the team around him

Not sure what IL's policy is, but Mo used to sign players. Apparently John Monie was not to pleased to hear that we'd signed Frano Botica, thinking that he was told old and small to add anything to the great side of the early 90s (and he was worried about his dodgy knees). To be fair to Mo, that was one decision he got right!
