They are busy at our local schools making the squad we have now basically a local high school dream team. How the hell can you say they don't do anything. Look at the squad and under 20 squad and see how many are local lads. I know many a player that passed through St. John Fisher past and present. When i was there you couldn't get away from the endless list of stars it produced. Needless to say that is a portion of the rest of the schools that produced players. You my son are obviously either too young, naive, thick or all 3 to understand.

How long are we giving it before he decides he wants to go back to Australia and wants out of his contract early?

I think he'll stick it out for a year, but that's it.

Local rags quoting around 100k:

Why? According to everyone I have spoke to, he loves it in England and so does his Mrs. He's already been here a while at Hull KR so I dont see your logic in that post at all.

The usual comments have come out all over the net

Not wigan standard, he aint no barrett, what does the wigan club see in him, he aint good enough for wigan.

Wigan lack ambition, move sam to 6, our half backs are sh@, we will nothing for next 5 years, why pay so much etc etc.

Jesus H Christ please change the tune its becoming monotonous drivel, ill give some people some credit they are consistantly tedious with the same comments over and over and over again.

The club has made its decision deal with it as there aint no amount of moaning going to change it

Leneghan out

Well said that man

'"

A demise not caused by the club, but more the doing of the governing bodies introduction of the salary cap and other levelling measures brought in, on that basis the fans should level there moans,groans,complaints etc to the powers that be at red hall and there lack of ambition to drive the game forward and promote the quality side of the game which is taking a real hiding.

rather than clutter facebook etc with very silly and mis-informed posts about a player who a lot havent even seen or seen very little of. id back any moans, groans,detailed petitions and protests against the governing body who are to an extent stifiling the game.

Nothing like touching a raw nerve, I guess.

Your explosion of outrage is noted ... and found to be suspcious.

Don't be surprised if your views aren't shared by the junior coaching staff at St Judes, Orrell St James, Shevington Sharks, Hindley ARL and so on.

I think certain people need to take their rose tinted glasses off regarding the 'superstar' quality across the whole team in years gone by.

Dave O posted the team that Trent was in a few years ago. Look at this for a backline:

Calderwood, Vaeliki, Bailey, Colbon

Personally I wouldn't want any of them to replace any of the team this year. If that is the price of having a NRL superstar than i'll be happy with Blake Green and our current backline.

People also seem to forget we have one of the most exciting young english superstars the game has produced since the like of Hanley and Offiah.

Rather than worrying about whether the Wigan team is as good as years gone by, the problem this sport has, is that bar 2 or 3 other clubs, the standard and consistency is still as poor as ever - to make the game attractive to watch week in week out you need to say games of the intensity of wigan v wire/saints or leeds every week.

Sounds like sour grapes from you as well.

Do you honestly believe that Wigan scouts or any other club scouts don't watch St Judes, Orrell, Shevy Sharks, Hindley or any other club in Wigan? Talk about blinkered!

If you're good enough then you will be spotted and picked up - FACT!

Stop believing the crap that a lot of disgruntled junior coaches/parents constantly push just because little Jimmy isn't good enough.

Blake Green is a very good player, he has a brain, pace and is strong as an Ox (ex back rower). Playing with your pack I reckon he will be even better than he was for us in 2011 will definately cause defences an headache as he isn't predictable. He is at his best inside the oppositions 20m area, where he has scored some excellent tries as well as making tries for others.

If he is just a fill in for 2 seasons, can we have him back in 2015 please.
