Mate, you can blame the coaches for that, he has to maintain a weight that, in my view, is unrealistic.

You don’t, he plays on the other flank.

A few from the highlight reel for Walters last year and I think we’ve ended up expecting too much of him and he just doesn’t have what it takes. He won’t be the first to freeze in the shirt but I’m sure the club will give him some very honest feedback.


He’s a prop.

Bad, bad decision from our point of view. His dummy half play is on another level from Leeming.

O’Neil is a top class player and a future captain but I suspect he will eventually end up at 13. For me Forber could be another Martin Dermott in terms of his natural ability and his great fast accurate ptb. We’ve cocked up big style when he goes.
A great win tonight after a very iffy first half. Nsemba just keeps on improving.


That’s the comparison I have been making. I said the same to his step-dad, his delivery from dummy half is aka Martin Dermott, and he is the best passing 9 I have seen at Wigan.

Lester Bangs wrote:Nsemba is turning out to be everything I thought Walters would be. Walters in preseason I thought was going to be a star. The game at Hull he played really well, tough. Then in the last minute {I think), even though the game was won, he tries to put on a hero shot and knackers his shoulder. He hasn't been the same since his return, pretty underwhelming. Junior has taken his opportunity with both hands and has gone from strength to strength. He was a colossus tonight. Farrell, when fit, will replace Walters of course. Peet will probably stick Walters on the bench for his utility value going into the playoffs.

Special mention for AK tonight. I think he was a close call for MOM. I actually think he looks a far better half than centre. For me leave Eckersley at centre and let French, Smith and Keighran fight it out for the two spots


Junior is a superstar in the making, end of.

What I like about Forber is that he is perpetual motion. Every ptb is his. A good grafter and a decent tackler. No quibbles or play acting just gets on with it.
Personally I’d start him before Leeming every time irrespective of the balance of the remainder of the team.
Obviously Peet mustn’t agree hence the signing of Leeming.
I hope that he leaves the club with a bang

Saw this coming since he was about ten years ago when he arrived at Judes. Fresh, raw and within a fortnight one of the best players on the pitch.

It's lovely to see, he comes from a nice family. Whether he stays at Wigan for the foreseeable future remains to be seen
No doubt the offers from down under will come calling soon (if they haven't already). Let's enjoy him while we can.

It wasn’t either, was pretty bizzare, ref didn’t see much of an issue, commentary all agreed it was a fair shot but all came to the conclusion he got a card because of a accumulation of incidents which only works when the final one is actually a foul.
