Did you say this after magic weekend or did you stay away from RLFANS for a week? Same applies weekend team against the all conquering Leeds team (at the time). Fairly hard to win a game of rugby with only 2 fit forwards on the bench never mind one being 18 and the other 22 not to mention having 2nd rows playing 80mins with no interchange.

Sorry got the wrong guy, both had numbers in your username lol.
Not really, two of our rivals for trophies played this weekend and there was a fallout afterwards, natural to be interested in it really (didn't give a damn about your lost to Wakey last week as it was just a lost simple as).....but go with the "others are jealous/obsessed/bitter" idea if you want, it's amusing to see you use it as a desperate retort as you can't think of anything else.

You were self-selecting, no need to be desperate.
Anyway, Brown is a whinging Aussie. Something I think all right minded people will agree with.

Not saying it wasn't an impressive win, it was. But only several months earlier you were 16-2 down in a GF approaching halftime and scored 28 unanswered points. That the Leeds game was considered by your coach to be his best win ever makes any mockery of Saints celebrating this weeks win "like a GF" a bit silly. I believe Cas were also mocked on here for celebrating their cup win over you as if their won the cup itself.

| As Tony Rea said on SSN tonight Brown is doing exactly what he's accusing Wane of by whinging about it himself.
Brown has been the biggest whinger in superleague for years and everybody knows that. I'd have thought a guy who's taken so many beatings by Wigan wouldn't have wanted to give us any extra motivation tbh!

| I know how to sort it put them both in the ring and let em go at it for real, like two cats in a sack! I know who my hard earned cash would be on, and it wouldn’t be Brown.

Haha you're probably right. As much as I dislike the bloke, I wouldn't fancy a right hand off him.

| Not sure if this has been covered before, but has Brown thought this through? While he may get playing to the gallery points, he has ensured that Wane has even more motivation to put them back in their place. He is like Suarez - trapped in a spiral of self destructive behaviour - it's as if he has forgotten that his head hunting jibes at Lockers and Flower hadn't already lead to a swift putting him back into his box.
More generally, i was surprised how well Saints played, even allowing for our injury list and much heavier June workload, as I didn't see them anywhere near us in terms of talent. We will need a couple of more men back if we play them in the play offs if we are to be certain of victory again.

We didn't do too bad considering the players we had missing.

| Quote: The Yellow Giraffe "You're clutching at straws here mate. We were without our best prop for a start so you haven't seen the best of us yet. We had an 18 year old prop starting the game and a 19 year old off the bench. We also played 60 minutes with 16 men with our organiser, kicker and play-maker going off early.
With regards to being worried, not in the slightest. Wigan fans are talking as though we played a reserve side; you had 4 or 5 guaranteed starters missing and a few squad rotation-type players. We had slightly less missing.
Nobody is fooled by this "oh but it was only our kids so we should have been battered" routine.'"
Mate, are you really going to hammer on in this delusional way? We've covered this on your board. We had 6 first choice players out (7 if you count Goulding and Thornley as first choice centres as per squad numbers) and several first choice reserves. Whichever way you count it we had around half a team out or unavailable. That's before we get to the fact that next time we meet only 2 of our starting pack are likely to start as we have Joel Tomkins due back well before then. If you seriously think that is the same team (or even close to it) that will meet you next time then by all means carry on trolling. I'm pretty sure though that you aren't that stupid really.

Squad numbers are given out before the season; a lot changes after that. Most Wigan fans now consider Gelling to be ahead of Goulding, would you not agree?
Also, at no point have I ever stated that the team on Friday will be the same team that plays us next time. So you're right, I'm not stupid. Nor am I trolling.
If people actually read my posts instead of assuming it's a trolling attempt then things would be a lot more straightforward.
It's a shame as there are a few on here who CAN have a conversation with opposing fans without resorting to insults.
