| Hasnt done it for me I'm afraid, dont rate him so far. His defence is also lacking, like the tackle he missed and just turned around with a "oh well someone else will get him" look on his face. Granted this is probably down to match fitness, but he needs to book his ideas up.

Romain Navarrete: “I’m very happy to have signed for Wigan Warriors. As soon I knew that Wigan were interested, they were the only team that I wanted to sign for. To me, Wigan is the biggest Club in Rugby League and it will be an honour to pull on the famous Cherry-and-White jersey next year. I look forward to working with Shaun Wane and the players at Wigan.”:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10172.jpg |

| I understand the frustration with Finch and Lima, but this seems to be a pattern with Australians at Wigan - they seem to struggle the first year. I remember people not being that impressed with Richards when he first started with us. Amos Roberts was the same, but last year at the beginning of the season he was blitzing it (I know he is not the same now).
I really don't understand why. You would think with the level of professionalism and intensity that they play in Australia, they would come over here and burn it up at the beginning and lose the intensity over time. Seems to be the reverse. To be fair to Finch he is coming back from an injury, and having to settle into a complex position, which requires knowing the other players. I am hoping as the season progresses he will come around ... the old story that class is permanent, etc. Well I hope so anyways, because it is the halfbacks where we are struggling.

| What I don't understand is that we have Paul Deacon on the pitch and yet the majority of the time an attacking kick went up in their half it was Finch. I think we should be utilising Deacons kicking more in attack. Thought Finch played better than he did against Catalans but I'm still not thrilled with his performance, especially with his kicking.

[quote="Headingley Rhino"]Great win yesterday at our place, there is no denying you are probably the best team in SL as you have proved it all year so I think it's justice done that you have got to Old Trafford. I thought wigan was excellent in the second half and showed why you guys are top dogs this year.: |

| I think he does a good job as a leader and organiser and apparently joker behind scenes

| I thought Finch was excellent when he came on today, some people just wont even give him a chance. If he was from Wigan everyone would be up his .

His short kicking was dreadful, especially first half. He's showing gradual improvement though, week on week.

| Finch...is over-rated. You were far slicker with Deacon on.
Out of the Melbourne trio Hoffman is by fat the best whilst Lima [are you Feka in disguise?]

| Finch had a better game today outside of a couple of poor kicks and Lima was very solid again. I honestly can't (well in can) believe the attitudes of some Wigan fans in writing these guys off already. They both need time especially Finch who is coming back from his first ever injury layoff. As for Lima I don't quite get the criticism full stop. I've read a couple of people call him Feka Mark II and that's really puzzling as I don't ever remember Feka getting through 15+ carries and 30+ tackles a game! He isn't an impact type prop and should in no way be compared to Feka. He's a workhorse and is doing a fine job for the team.

You know it's wrong to talk sense when it comes to Aussies on here NK, I remember folk wanting Piggy out after a few months and wishing we still had Micky Higham. How ironic now that Piggy is one of the bigger losses in the team this year.

| I'd actually like to see some of you lot watch a game of rugby. Look what finch does for organising the defensive line. He positions everyone in attack and people follow. The only game where he has been poor this year was the catalans game.
we would not have got the draw at leeds if it wernt for finch
he scored our only points against wire
people are expecting too much too soon. he should be praised for giving a very good account of himself today.
