Snapping the pole is just an innocent phrase though right?
I'm an opinionated Wire fan on a Wigan section of a forum, I didn't expect Wigan fans to agree.'"
No your quite right you are entitled to an opinion but bringing up a subject from 3 years ago to cause a reaction is fairly close to trolling don't think any Wigan fan would have a problem if you did it on your own board.
Snapping the pole, ok so how does this refer to launching into the back of a players knees or below? For a Fact i know you don't have any more of an idea as to what that call was than me. how do you know it didn't mean hip or above the knee? Also nobody has answered this yet, how many players got injuries from being tackled around the legs or "snapping the pole"? He also used to endorse aggressive defences but thats closed to being banned now as well.

Answer - he got a losers medal which is unusual for a Wiganer!

| Quote: Wire Yed "Weasel off?
Maguire used tactics that are now banned...fact.
Do these tactics severely injure people?
Well obviously otherwise why ban them.
Did Wigan employ these tactics before Maguire?
No
So your problem was again?
You could take it up with my superiors if you think I overstepped the lines'"
So since the time Maguire came to Wigan, how many players have been injured and had to stop playing because of foul play by a Wigan player?

| Quote: tank123 "I do have issue with a player going in 3rd man below the knee. It was about time any contact by the 3rd player below the knee on a player was banned from the game. Every supporter sees his own side with rose tinted glasses. All sides will do anything to get an advantage sometimes it goes beyond that and rules come into the game to attempt to eradicate it from the game.
Problem i have with Westwood is the same as a 3rd man. The player is in a vulnerable position and can not defend or protect himself.'"
Good post, agree with all of that.

Don't forget the 'gentleman' of RL......Les Boyd.

I will always remember a Lancashire Cup Final at St Helens ,Wigan v Warrington in the eighties.
Les Boyd had been trying it on when Nick De Toit slammed him down, Boyd being rather angry started to get up but when he looked up and saw Nick stood over him laughing he decided that discretion was the order of the day and wisely stayed down until Nick moved away.

| the past is the past, its obvious every fan other than wiganers truly believe we only ever win things by cheating but when the shoe is on the other foot they don't like it - who cares. that's what makes being a fan of such a successful team so much more fun!
tonights game will be more than tasty, after the issues from last years Grand Final, not forgetting the result, and the bas taste tactics employed by Smith in the build up to the WCC.
gonna be a cracker!

| Another thing I don't get.
Wires trip to Australia was booked before the Grand final, we were always going to train with Roosters.
Wane trained with the Rabbitohs,(Roosters main rival) if he was so principled why didn't he just refuse?
After Wigans asset stripping in the off season and Roosters retaining a champion side you were always getting your backside handed to you regardless.

Not to mention Westwood has clearly said he intended to punch him but not as flush, shows what a a dirty bugger he truly is. Would love to remember who the poster was saying he didn't intend to punch him and how would i know it was a broken cheekbone with out him having an X-ray.
