| Quote FC Wembley 08="FC Wembley 08"I'm not 100% on him either yet.. Had 2 fantastic performances (Wolves & Leeds) around average the rest. Had more bad games than excellent this year, Friday in particular.
Should be nowhere near a kicking tee as he is IMO the worst goal kicker we've had in years!!
I agree he is an improvement on what we had but wouldn't be worth the reported big money!!
We really NEED to invest in a goal kicker next season, they win games!! DJ has cost us too many points this year never mind competition points!!'"

| Had 11games in total. Had Aaron, Horne, n miller as partners(not in sequence) back n forth. So not even built a real partnership yet. Take him away we get no points at saints, lose v wire n would probably lost v Leeds as well.
Also the argument about standing out as a big fish in small pond baffles me.(Salford) surely it's harder to stand out with no platforms to work off/with.
Seen plenty of players bigged up at top teams who've been shown up at lower teams

| I don't understand the complaining about his goalkicking. Yes he isn't to good at the minute but he's not our 1st choice kicker, maybe he's just the best of the rest. There's got to be some reason he keeps been given the responsibility & I doubt it's because he demands it.

Yer, give him a go and get ticks training him for rest of season. DJ is the worst goalkicker for a long time and terrible this year in SL overall. He generally has an excellent in game kicking game and has a 40/20 in him but his passes are sometimes like he's blindfolded he misses quite a few and drops a lot of ball.
I think he is an average player and there are so many better halves out there. That said, Miller will improve and showed DJ up on Friday night. When he starts taking control of games both players should look a lot better!!

| Quote tonyanl="tonyanl"A good kicker, yes, takes the team round the park,yes, but a top 4 halfback, no.Really good halves, e.g. Briers,Edwards, Long, Dobson, Schofield, etc. also take the ball to the line, hold the ball, time the pass and put players through the gap, make breaks and support breaks, and score tries. Holdsworth is ordinary at all these things. In fact when putting on a move it often breaks down because of him - this happened twice in the warm up at Cas! He is an improvement, but not the answer - how many tries have we scored this season?!
I`m amazed people still wonder where Horne will fit in. He is still a class act, until injured our best player by a mile - how we have missed him. He should be the first named half back on the teamsheet. Even his kicking game, until this season a weakness I admit, has improved enormously.
Are all the players at Wigan naturally gifted players, or are all the teams drilled and drilled again in passing and running lines? Whoever plays, the ball still seems to zip down the line, whereas we seem to break down so often. I wonder what we are doing in training!
anl.'"
Who is this half back called Schofield?

Not from me, no.
I think they will be a good partnership but I was merely commenting on statements from some people saying that DJ is a great halfback and our saviour when, in fact, he is far from it!!
But hopefully Friday will have opened Gentles eyes and that he'll make the decision to give another kicker a chance..

But he will be next season will he not??
As I've said, he has and will cost us points this season with inconsistent and poor goal kicking!!

| Can't believe what I'm reading, holdsworth is the most important player in our team, first name on the team sheet for me. It's completely unfair to start questioning him just because he's been out of form with his goal kicking, I mean seriously? If he kicked a few more goals at cas this thread doesn't even exist, pathetic.

| Dear god, you moan about not having a decent half back combination, then you get one and some want to rewind the clock. Beggars belief.
