Why exactly were wigan there for the taking last night? Because for an hour we were in the game? That doesnt mean they were there for the taking, it means that we did well to hang in for that long. You say we must not waste time practising attacking moves just because last night we couldn't score freely against the second best defence in the league when we have a better attack than Crusaders, Wakefield, Harlequins, Salford, Bradford, Hull and Catalans.
Now we come to the most embarrassing bit of all. You claim to know exactly how Vella is going about his contract negotiations, you don't. You claim to know that Carvell came and begged to sign for us for £105,000 a year, he almost definitely didn't. You then attack a player who has been selected in the SL dream team every full season he has been here and another who has been probably our best player this year. Oh, and you also try and guess their wage packets again. What exactly makes you believe we could have had the elderly Darren Lockyer? You want rid of Morgan (and one of our HBs) to be presumambly replaced by yourself and I suppose you will do the job for free so that "Hudgy baby and the cuddle crew" aren't wasting any more of their hard earned cash. I'm not sure who the other 3 Aussies who you are talking about are, possibly Clint Newton, Ben Fisher and New Zealander, Jake Webster, but if those 3 are earning £250,000 between them I think that is good value. And then for good measure you have a little guess at how much Justin Morgan is being paid per year. Seeing as you sign off by telling the board they need to become as wise as you, is there any chance you will offer any actual solutions to these problems you have made up or will you just keep pretending to know more about the club than anyone else without ever saying anything of substance?
Oh, and by the way, learn how to properly use an ellipsis.
Well said!
I don't see it as a job. It is a passion and love that we all share. Neil Hudgell

IMO we made it easy for Wigan, we didnt really ask any questions of them, we kicked OK near there line, but other than that we never really threatened them IMO, even when the game was getting away from us we didnt chance our arm, we didnt look to offload that much, why didnt we try a little chip over the top? we just kept doing the same things we had done all game, We need at least 1 new hooker for next season. someone who can give us direction, cos at the minute we dont have any. Wigan were a joy to watch, throwing the ball wide whenever they could, whereas we hardly went wide, did either of our wingers get passed the ball whilst on the wing?

I am also not from New Zealand.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

I love Lazza now a days, he's great.
I actually agree to some extent, just perhaps not as vehemently.
