You mean the bit where "the possible England fullback" gets done like a kipper by the 18yr old kid on his first start :lol:

You mean the one where the ex England full back and NRL star playing at home in a must-win game got side-stepped by18 year old kid on his starting debut and couldn't lay a finger on him? :D

We probably only won because of Wigan's "postage stamp" pitch!

If you want a fun ten minutes have a look at the Cas match threads on the Wigan fans forums - wonderfully negative and bitter about their coaching staff and players.

It's this attitude that sticks in my craw. It stops being a sport and becomes a vehicle for a club's God given supremacy, and any fall from that state of grace must be against the Natural Order of things. I'm only just getting used to seeing Cas at the top end of the table but in time I may well end up the same. I hope not though.

IMO, we are too big for these small teams.

Wigan are a team we should be beating every season




said tongue in cheek. It is only like their fans would say, though

This is the very trap we need to not fall into. We need to keep ourselves honest put in the hard graft. Look for projects as well as top signings. Never think it's our god given right to be at the top of the table. I will give Wigan 1 due. They have got to the CC final. In with a shout of the top four. And that's not good enough for them. That is a winning attitude and something I hope we develop. Rather than this inferiority complex and well that will do attitude that at least we tried. I'm always disappointed when we lose and I want to win every game.

I noticed it and he does it a lot, yet hardaker is the one penalised and or carded.

Don't talk tripe. He gets wrong footed by the side step, that's all. Nothing sinister in it.

He does tend to leave a leg or knee in as players are scoring.

Interesting listening to rat boy on sky at the saints match. When asked about his thoughts on man of steel, didn't mention gale or hardaker and thought fonua at Hull. He said that's how he's voted. He's such a bitter horrible man.

Did he actually say the words he doesn't rate them? If so that's despicable.

I've said it before and will say it again. He has no class. Immature and small minded.

It's a leadership issue that drives that kind of culture at the Pies.
