Nope - and how you got that from what I said, I don't know. In response to NSW criticising our youth policy as one which might "alienate" our youth players, I simply intended to point out that signing Ellis, who hasn't set the world on fire, on a 3 year deal might cause some disenchantment among the Wigan youth players. I also, in no way, wished to compare the relative abilities of Ellis and Crowther. If I'm honest, I can't recall ever seeing Crowther play. I've seen Ellis a few times and I though his performance in the CC against us was one of his better ones.
Of course, having to spell out every nuance of what you write can often take away from its effect.
Had I realised my comments were going to stretch your 3 GCSEs to bursting point, I might have kept my powder dry...
So you were speculating about how our 5 SL middles under 24 could be feeling aggrieved by us resigning a current team mate whilst letting 3 older lads who have played as middles this year go?
Whilst defending the fact you are bringing in a player on a short term loan who cannot get in the bottom of the tables team at the expense of dropping one of your youngsters. How ironic.
