That can't be right. It's not wearing a Leeds shirt!

People have been banned on the Wigan gloat thread for less.

I am surprised Ulugia hasn't got sponsorship yet, for a player that could be scoring a try every other game played he would be a good option for a business to get regular mentions

Will he be part-time, or will he have to pack in reading the news?

Can we have all the Jameses? And maybe Jack and Jake thrown in too? That would be awesome.

Out of my whole year at high school in the 70s there was one James & a few Michaels. No other Christian name off that list. That is bizarre.

I was going to ask for something sensible like a prop a 2nd row a half back a back and another, but changed my mind to something sort of random: can we have the five (at least the ones I have identified) who have first names as second names?:

Callum Ogden
Ethan Ryan
Jack Giorgiou
Michael Paul
Liam Kirk

edit: yes I know these days that anything goes, Chassagne-Montrachet Grand Cru Smith or Widdicombe Jones, but these have a degree of history behind them ( eg Ogden has been used as a first namefrom since the 19th century. Ogden Nash is probably the best known example)

We will go with majority vote. Thanks once again.
