Quote: 21-12 "Pat Richards, top try scorer and man of steel, has that got nothing to do with playing outside Carmont then? I am not saying Inglis isnt world class, I am saying that we won the grand final with these 2 centres so no, I wouldnt want a new centre, id rather stick to what we know we can trust.'"



Chris Riley scored a shedload and he's average. the centre mean's little. I rate Carmont though.

All fans tend to lean towards their own team. But that is a stupid comment.

yes it it. Gleeson probably finished the season as the form centre I'll give you that. But the notion that Carmont is brilliant and one of the two best is a reach. Matt King for one is much better.

on last seasons for I disagree, Carmont is one of the best defending centres in the league and the amount of tries Richards and Pryce scored outside him this and last year and Ainscough last year speaks for itself

It doesn't reallky though. Like with us, alot of Wigan's play is created from the slick passing on the middle with the centre alot of the time making the final pass. In O'Loughlin you probably have the best passer of a ball for a forward in SL and with Tomkins chiming in the line, alot of misdirection is used. It's not as if Carmont is beating three or four through his own brilliance then putting the wingers in is it.

Carmont has a great passing game and runs some fantatsic lines to create the extra man and also enables him to be used as a dummy runner. Sam didnt play fullback 2 years ago and not that many games there last year so that negates the point that he is the reason for all the tries, maybe some but not all. For his age also he still has plenty of pace and is tough as nails often playing injured.

I rate him as a very good player. But he isn't on the top 2 in the league.

Quote: 21-12 "Im not comparing abilities at all, read my post, im talking about sticking with a CHAMPIONSHIP WINNING TEAM. Carmont and Gleeson have been absoulutely superb for us last season and my point was, why would we even consider buying a centre?? At no point what so ever have I said Greg Inglis is not a world class player, he is, and would love him at Wigan when Carmont's contract is up, but for the time being im quite happy with having IMO the best 2 centres in SL.'"


So you really think Greg Inglis wouldn't this team better then it is? Crazy.

If you had done a Leeds three in a row I could maybe understand it but off one title I can't.

Ok then, name the SL team that has a better centre partnership then.

Depends of what means "better"

Assists wise Gleeson wasn't that good last season and Carmont was average.

Greg Inglis is a freak of a player & would make an impact with any club he played for. I think the argument us Wigan fans have is that, for the money Carmont's on compared to Inglis & the job he does for us it wouldnt make sence to break the bank for Inglis.

At what point have I put that?? All I am saying is why disrupt a winning side? how could you possibly drop Gleeson or Carmont after the season we have just had?
