His dad received the same call before the final. I'm sure Andy got it before the final too. Didn't 2 employees of the JJB stadium get the sack shortly after that incident?

forgot rugby league was invented at the start of SL

Obviously musn't be the most successful club ever now then because we havn't dominated the "SL era"

So let me get this right. Fans boo wigan players like tomkins because wigan completely dominated the sport 15 years ago?

No, don't be silly.

They boo him because they realise that he is the most naturally gifted talent in SL and isn't playing for their side.

And because they are scared to death of him.

The glorification of death, destruction, suffering and pain that you and Suzy Banjostring share is not something that I personally would find humour in.

However at least one of those statements is incorrect. Surely the Northern Irish have the 'Best domestic terrorists' on grounds of range of operations, expertise, longevity and scope of operation?

No wrong. Thats the reason everybody hates us as a club, well that and the fact we are the biggest club in the country.

Did I read somewhere that Cummins has said Ganson got the decision wrong for McGuire`s try?
How ironic that would be hey.

Forgot to put the

and the

at the end.

How blinded you all are, people don't like sam because he is a conman end of.

who said that?

Where as Ryan McGoldrick is a model pro!!!

What a classically pointless thread!

The reason most fans dislike Tomkins is purely down to his cheating antics and gamesmanship. Don't kid yourselves you don't know what we mean; the trapping of an opposition players arm under the ball; the holding on to an oppostion players shirt whilst being tackled etc. Its nothing to do with the fact he plays for Wigan, nothing to do with us being jealous that he isn't in our team. He simply doesn't need the chip on the shoulder. Hopefully as he matures the arrogance will dissipate. (Moonlight Fit : can you understand that word - it means reduce)

I find it funny that you think that Tomkins is boo'ed because we're all jealous of him, but you admit to booing McGuire as you think he's a cheat! Classic Wigan! How does the chant go again.... oh yeah, "cheat, cheat, cheat" Brilliant that one



As for McGuire's try, it should have stood. I say that not simply because I'm a Leeds fan but because surely every drop goal should also be considered a knock on if that is the rule?

Enjoy your time Wigan, we most certainly did. Just hope you have a better coach replacement policy than ours.

Don't worry though, we'll be back

People trap the arm and hold shirts every game. Why is it only Sam who gets booed for it then?

As for a Leeds whino giving us a lecture on cheating

Your comment would mean you believe that ONLY Sam does this? Crabtree at Huddersfield always uses his free arm to wrap it round the back of the neck of the tackler! Do you Boo him?
We didnt Boo McGuire last week! I dont recall any Wigan fans Booing an England player do you?

If your suggesting McGuire was going for a drop goal then oh dear!!

Remarkable lack of lateral thinking (and no, that's not a reference to a flat pass!)

No, you wazzocks.
Im suggesting that if you have hold of the ball, then drop it to the ground with the intention of kicking it, it should (based on last fridays decision) be a knock on. Yet a drop goal is disallowed unless the ball has touched the ground first! Very inconsistent.

As regards big Eorl, never noticed him trapping with the ball, but I'll look out for it and boo accordingly

ironically enough Leeds wanted to sign the big fella, but ended up with the better prop from Hudds

Indeed, but they're the mighty Wigan Warriors remember, the biggest team in the stratosphere. Maybe after 3 successive titles we'll start listening/understanding.

Happy Birthday by the way

Answered your question! If its dropped its dropped regardless if they then kick it!! If they are attempting a drop goal thats completly different.
