Potter didn't complain.
That makes three. |

That shows exactly what I mean. Yes your playing well at the minute, But I really dont think the RFL or anyone are going to be changing the rules to "Bring down the Level" after 10 games. Yes you have looked extremely good for 10 games, but I wouldn't say that you have took the level up any further, it's certainly to early to be saying this after 10 games.
As for Cum in the commentary box? I really think this is something you have to get over. Which ever fans you talk to, they always believe that Eddie and Stevo are against them!'"
Its all about opinions though isnt it?
Every fan has an opinon on Wigans defence, there was as of this morning a 36 comment thread on the bbc website, the nearest other thread had 9 comments, and the vast majority wanted the rules changing, Eddie and Stevo were nearly crying on friday saying "they have got to penalise them", even though we were doing nothing worst than the saints defenders! I may be a precious Wigan fan but i can admit it, how many opposition fans can admit to only wanting a rule change because its wigan?
Just because im paranoid, doesnt meen the whole world isnt against us!  |

Didnt he say on the radio that our defence wasnt in the spirit of the game?
Not sure what that means to be honest, but i dont understand it when someone says "spirt" of something, either its a rule or it isnt!
If he didnt say that then yes that makes 3 |

I don't want the rules changed, admittedly it doesn't look nice at times, but it's up to other coaches to come up with ideas to try and break this down if that's what's being done. All times hold down to an extent, Wigan are just doing it very well at the minute, by getting more into each tackle. I've no complaints with it.

Non from me either bud, if it sees the end of the scooter hooker and lets players like, sam and eastmond learn how to unlock defences scoring great tries like they have been doing, then im all for it!
How running 8 yards every other play can be deemed creative rugby ill never know! |

When was he on the radio? The man can hardly speak as it is. I don't remember him being on the radio. But his recorded comments following the match on Good Friday were not crticial of Wigan's tactics. Quite the opposite it would seem.
He has criticised a referee this season. Smith, I think it was. I can't remember after which match. He had a word with the RFL. Has Smith been seen again? I don't know. I'd be happy if he wasn't. |

lol the comedy is back folks! You don't like what the poster said so you pick to abuse them or try and insult them. Do try harder or just stay away from making yourself look a fool.
Even your own fans laugh at you on your own board with some of the drivel you post, does that not tell you something?

SaintsFan gets owned wherever she goes. She even embarrasses her own fans.
A++++ would read again.

Seriously, teach your players to offload and you'll soon stop Wigan's tactics.

I imagine you to be one of these pretend die hard fans, the ones who think they know everything in the game and fail to see the bad in their own team and anything wrong said about them can't be right. When a decision goes against Saints you blame the ref when really you don't know the rules or why it was given. I mean for goodness sake, you thought the pass to Meli wasn't forward! It was so forward he was almoast on Billinge hill when he caught it!
