Mate no offence but you are a fool. That is exactly what Kear has done throughout his career (punched above his weight), something Noble has never to do.

I love how stuborn you are.

I'm not going to extract the urine out of Wigan, proud history and plenty of success make it laughable to do so, but seriously, what has gone wrong at your club?

Yet you fail to explain your stance?

Coaching.

We were also taken apart in the World Club Championship. It was no myth, Hanley didn't rate Martyn. Don't you think its a bit odd for Hughes e.t.c just to drag Pachniuk up at random too?

Uncle's Dave & Maurice started it. Its been a steady decline since.

It is his choice ot play Coley when we have Prescott who can't be any worse.



He doesn't have to play Smith at 6. Like he doesn't have to play Mathers at full back. But he does.



Perhaps as I kept saying at the time there players were not on as much you you thought? Barrett's first year was was subsidised form his old club and Jinkin Jimmy posted on here what he said Millward told him Higham was on. It wasn't mega bucks.

But as was also said at the time several young players got new improved contracts and we did sign Riddell on a three year deal. Do you think he came cheaper than Higham? I don't. I said at the time it was a myth that we would have a lot of money to spend based on releasing these players




IL may have failed to deliver the squad Noble wants but as Jonh keeps asking do you think Noble is making the best of what he has got? It is plain to everyone else he is not so what do you think?

Dave

Yes I am sure. I know players there at the time were unhappy with Hanley. Thinking about it now, we had also been knocked out of the challenge cup by leeds, and beaten at home by Bradford. Hanley's signings also failed in major fashion namely Trindall and Phil Adamson.

Imagine an NRL team being better than a Sl team?!

A lot of coaches never rated Martyn hence his lack of international apperances.

Whats your opinion of Millward?

I also know players there at the time who loved and still do love Hanley, but lets not allow that to deflect from the question about Millward.

Ian Lenagan was seen having a KFC in Ince with Andy Gregory last week - draw your own conclusions.

You mean like Brisbane were against us twice? Or Melbourne were against Leeds? Or Wests against Bradford? Oh wait a minute, they werent!

I think Millward was a decent coach, who did well on the whole. However, the side was made much better by Daniel Anderson.

He fancied a bucket of the Colonel's finest?

If you seriously think the NRL teams were better than the Sl teams you clearly lack a valid view.


Who was the more successfull coach Millward or Anderson at Saints?

Was Millward a decent coach at Wigan?
