Whatever happened to Billy McGinty's pineapple? "unless you hit it directly at Paul Wellens, it's several minutes before he'll arrive at the ball." Saddened "I'm done. Brown out.

Not actually criticising, we all would have if the three way comparison had worked out our way.

If you think about it tho, the question was (as i recall) who was the best scrum half or stand off (let's say halfback)

In that regard based on this seasons form it is Myler hands down, ( tomkins the better player i agree)'"

Zombie, did I miss the bit where this became a comparison between half backs? It would see stupid to include a full back in that debate, don't you think?

Agreed.

I was pointing out that that is how the debate started.
I'm sure a few would deny that now tho...

As a half back myler is the better of the three.

Tomkins is the better fullback and had the most impact this year.

Eastmond still had thr most potential for me. Just looks very unlikely to fulfill it due to his attitude.

myler is not better than Tomkins and has shown himself to be little more than another average support player.

The bit I underlined.

'Hands down' Myler is a better halfback?

I'd sooner have Sam at 6 or 7 any day than Myler.

But everyone's entitled to a view. I just don't agree with yours on this matter.

Myler isn't better than Jonny Lomax, never mind Sam Tomkins.

Eastmond is a good un and it's a shame he's gone but he was never better than Sam.

The comments though in the original post, just go to show how bitter and twisted some posters are. They must go to bed each night and pray that all things Wigan are obliterated from the earth. Suppose it's the old british thing of, whilst not exactly admiring failure they just hate success.

Attention Dire fans and trolls: NOT on the bandwagon, despite the join date. Those of us who were forced to watch Dennis Moran play in Cherry & White deserved to see Lockers lift that trophy at Old Trafford.

I wouldn't bother. This is the poster who stated on the Wire board that Matt King is better than Pat Richards. Some people just have the tinted specs superglued on... icon_rolleyes.gif

Tomkins is a great player, he'll make a break out of nothing, one flaw he does have though is he's not much of a passer, when Sammy boy gets that ball he won't let go unless he's about to have his head taken off, hands like velcro!

hey dont stop there pal..... your on a roll...

Fielden is better than James Graham and Adrian Morley
Paul Deacon is pace and youth personified (and a Wigan lad) and no way would he be swapped for Myler or Lomax.

Gaz Hock is simply the best in the world and if he hadnt took drugs he would be in the NRL ripping them pansies new backsides as we speak....Ben Westwood and Tony Puletua are crappin emselves right now.....FACT

Funnily enough, I didn't see him say any of that, just that Matt King is no better than Pat Rcihards, which is true.

Your extremely raw nerves are duly noted.
