[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

[quote="Susan":1cwsq9hj]I've had enough, lets not go down the shouting for the coaches head route, Brians done a fantastic job. He took the club over in dificult circumstances and the team punched well above there weight in the play offs. We've got to be realistic, our glory days have gone, we're no longer a Saints, Leeds or a Warrington.[/quote:1cwsq9hj] [img:1cwsq9hj]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a208/wires4eva/MikeGregory.jpg[/img:1cwsq9hj]:19801.gif

Don't worry - It only seems kinky the first tiime you try it!:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_2554.jpg



Text from the game says that Mathers didn't have a bad game - he was fu£$ing Abysmal!

One good game last season v Leeds, and that's about it I think. Not a full back, not a RL player. Top waterboy though!

Should not have had his contract extended yet Noble did.

Should not have played today after his poor showings in the friendlies yet he did.


Can you spot the pattern here?

Mathers takes Matt King's head of last year and the whole rugby community pleaded "He's not that kind of player" icon_lol.gif Pathetic, he's had more yellow that the Arsenal away shirt.

I think Richie Mathers deserves a knighthood! icon_lol.gif As expected Riddell knackered after 15 minutes too.

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg



Mathers is the only guy in SL that makes Wellens look like Bolt icon_biggrin.gif

Mathers
Coley
Bailey

3 players who continue to be a waste a space week in week out, why should anyone be suprised by the standards witnessed today i'll never know.

As Noble stated, players will be picked on form this season. I fully expect these three to be missing from the Hull game next week.

Mathers is a lad without any confidence. However the booing of him prior to the game was pathetic.

That being said, time has to be called on him. Roberts to FB with Goulding back in next week. Or even Bailey to centre. I dont care for those who want attacking rugby, we need a defence first.

Didn't notice any? icon_confused.gif

Even if there was I think today proved it was completely justified. He was hopeless last season, yet we extend his contract?

Proved a good move so far from Noble and Lenegan.

I think that was aimed at the decision to put him on the pitch not him personally

All 3 were and are truely awful and shouldn't be anywhere near the side next week. Nobles team selection today was woeful and his unwillingness to ick anybody who's not below the age of 25 or foreign is a shambles.

Mathers jas no bottle whatsoever and doesn't want to command the situation like a fullback should. To think i had pipe dreams that we may see a Richards style comeback from him icon_eek.gif
