Just following on from a post in tonights Wigan game thread. Someone said that Currie is 'shot'. I must say, as an attacking force, i fear he may never get back to that level? Our twitter page rolled some tries scored at the DW over the years, and theres one from Currie where his turn of pace couldnt be further away from where it is now......

I suppose the question is, if you agree, when does Price get to the point where he makes the change? Or do we persevere and give him more time?

What more can he do in the positions he was put in?
He started a few breaks on the left with good hands
He defended strongly and doesnt really miss tackles.

Hes gone from having sandow next to him creating space and opportunities to having nothing now, everyones goes right or he gets in passed to him with 3 defenders in front of him.

I agree hes still missing a bit of his confidence but they're asking him.to work miracles in some positions

Whilst it's not looked great for him, I think we need to see a bit more before he's written off.

Would it not be better to loan him out and try to get his confidence back up rather than just dropping him? Send him somewhere where he'll have more space to run and make a few breaks. Like a strong Championship side? I half watched most of your game as I cooked my tea and did other stuff and I didn't even notice he was playing.

Still, he's in a better place than George Burgess.

I was waiting for that after half way of 2019. He did well coming through the season without injury. However, theres only so much grace you can give. I want him to return to the player he was 2/3 years ago, however this type of injury never ends well in my opinion.

Very happy to be proved wrong though......

The way we play, with players running laterally means the edges get squeezed and we end up with 2 or 3 players in very limited space. There is a reason our wingers weren’t scoring last season, this affects the second row as well as centres and wingers.






Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.
