(still reckon Rocky should've had a call)



The same Rocky that couldn't get into the Wigan team? Should've had a call to play for England? The lads shown some promise in the academy but it's unbelievable how over rated he is on here.

When he has been given time on the park there's been some pretty good stuff from the lad. Maybe undercooked for these tests, but I don't understand why some have such a downer on him. I can see him come back with Cas & sting us next year

Although, back on topic, what's this "underlying issue" with ST's knee that McBanana is bleating about? Who's done what to him?

Sam doesn't become a Wigan player until Sunday. I guess it'll be sorted out pretty quickly from then. Rumour has it that its a posterior cruciate ligament problem.

Just need Lockers, Faz and Bateman to pull out and it's happy days.

Get them at Wigan and concentrating on what matters - knocking Leeds off thier perch.

I am hearing 4 months out, will this put a block on Hampshire's loan to Cas?

Sounds ominous given he had such a bad reaction to training on Tuesday. Shame for Sam Tomkins. Think it might be a case of him having to reinvent his game a bit like McGuire did for us after 2010.

He will have a way to go to become as big a toe rag as McGuire has become.... McGuire did not have a bad season, but is still a horrid little grub on the pitch.

Can completely understand why he isn't being risked. After all, he's coming back from quite a serious injury. BUT I still want to see the best England team out there playing on Sunday. Club rugby should never be prioritised over playing for your country, especially if we ever want the profile of the sport to grow...

Looking forward to seeing Hardaker given a chance at FB though - he obviously doesn't want to play centre. Time for the Man of Steel to stand up and be counted...

Think you may prove to be correct. He'd lost some pace before he went to the NRL and I'm convinced he's got long term knee trouble as it seems to have been effecting him for years now.

I have total faith in his ability though. Even if he is now more of a creator then a try scorer he'll still boss it in superleague.

We just need to get him sorted.
