Christ, the Wiganers make a good point in some cases when they say we're the worst fans in SL.

A good signing for Catalans.

Catalans will always have the huge advantage of the area and the weather when trying to sign top players from the NRL.

Is that why Hull are so good at it? Lovely area and the weather is superb.






Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

FIOS

You can hardly tell the 2 places apart when you visit them :lol:

Better grub in Hull though.

You are correct , Coley or Bailey in the second row is a no brainer.

Bailey by miles.



Bailey vrs Coley, it's not even close,Bailey is miles the better player

Both Jason's are leaving Catalans, Croker and Ryles.
Johnson could replace Croker with perhaps Fakir moving to prop.
What a pack!

I just don't see the hype around Bailey.

I'd pick Coley every single time before him as he is IMO the superior player

Not in the second row he isn't.






SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

We should start a pole!!

For me the guy with greater speed, flexibility in playing positions on the pitch, greater leadership, 5 Ozzie caps and a heart of a lion beats a prop who hits the line at just over 0mph, is very error prone and has lost the speed he needs to dip into the 2nd row.

Added to that during a game (someone remind me) Bailey, due to injuries on the field filled in after about 20mins at prop for a game (and got MOM i think), so he might be a bit light (I have been saying for a while get a stone and a half on him and he could prop) but he tackles like a prop as well.

Bailey adds more to the team both on and off the field. Coley for me is turning into a right plodder. Maybe MM will sort that, I sincerley hope so as I want all Wigan players to perform.

Johnson's departure may now mean that Lima stays at the Storm, although we were an outside bet for his signing. He is/was probably going to Wests.

One of those two had to go so perhaps he'll now stay put.
