I don't recall being harsh on KP last season? In any case Bailey's performance v Quins was probably his worst as a centre in a Wigan shirt which is surely the point? I am not saying he was great as a centre in the past compared to Gleeson or Carmont but I am not sure what that has got to do with it re Pryce as he was so bad last week Ainscough was on a hiding to nothing IMO.



It might be hard to believe but it's not support but simply attempting to call a spade a spade as I see it. For example I don't feel any need to be contrite about criticising Roberts last year because last year he just wasn't very good for such an established pro. This year he's a different kettle of fish. When Goulding got a lot of flak a season or two ago I defended him because I thought it was not justified but I do recognise that sometimes players just aren't that good. I happen to think Ainscough will come good just as Goulding has changed a few opinions this season.

I don't recall you backing KP either when the wolves were on him in less than ideal circumstances for the player - in much the same way that the Quins game isn't really a reflection of Ainscough's abilities, hence i've come out and said as much in defence of him.

It's not meant as a dig at you btw Dave, i'm sorry if it comes across like that, I was merely curious.
