It can't possibly be Nelson Asofa-Solomona, can it?

We are thin and some, when fit and available, are ineffective. A lot are young and unproven. I think in reality we have 2 top quality prop forwards.

e.g) Ask the question "Which of these forwards would you expect to see in a title winning side"

Vaughan (yes)
Harrison (yes)
Musgrove (maybe)
Wood (too early to tell)
Thomas (too early to tell)
Green (too early to tell)
Bullock (no)
Philbin (no)
Dudson (no)

It’s either yes or no.

If it’s “maybe and too early to tell” then it’s no.
They are employed now, so either they are good enough or they are not.

How do you solve a problem like King?

What’s going on again?

He looked to be settling down, playing great tbf.

Now Sam says he has a “soft tissue” man size problem.

Has he brought his dog to training again?

Aldi or Tesco's own are great for blowing your nose on Duckie . If it's tissue for the other end ,let him man up with a roll of Izal or Bronco.

Looking at the King situation, which club needs him or could afford the salary allegedly Wire are paying him.. If King isn’t interested in pulling on a Wire shirt and been committed then let him stew in the stands.. or pay him off, the club have paid players off before.. You’d hope it’s nothing more than fans putting two and two together and coming up six.. and King returns to the fold again and settles and shows the form that made Wigan Grand Final Winners

There's a video of the press speaking to Burgess about King after the game. Burgess is very careful and is very cryptic about the whole thing, but you get the feeling Burgess wants King to grow up a bit.

Just seen the King interview response. Interesing and concering at the same time.

IF he his genuinly injured then fair play but if not and doesnt want to be here, out you go!

Sam isnt someone id like to mess about.

I know that the HJ is falling to bits but the only reason I'd want Tex Hoy is to replace a broken turnstile.
