Excuse the interuption, just came for a nosey seeing as we're playing you next

Martin Offiah comes across as an incompetent fool who doesn't know what he's talking about! I'd be surprised if he actually watched most of the games he comments on! One week he mentioned us losing against Saints and on Sunday he talked about Briscoe who didn't even play! I can't bear to watch him and as soon as we've been on I turn him off!

In fact my biggest mistake was missing the first few minutes one week, sitting through the whole of his inane ummm rambling and ummm finding out ummm that we'd been ummmm on first!

It was nice getting that off my chest See you Sunday

Agreed. He is an awful pundit. He has spent the last few years trying to find a career after rugby, and it has only just occurred to him to try something involving rugby, and he's not that good.

Carney on Friday was a very good pundit, although will need to take off his Wigan hat if he is to make it long-term.

Iestyn Harris would be OK, been pretty good on the SL Show the last couple of weeks - but they'd need to strap his hands to his chair!

You don't see the players out on the town half as much now as you used to 3 or 4 years ago. Unless they drink other places.

They are in town at least once a week and when i say town im including stocking feet, they also like to venture into Wigan quite a bit or round to Westwood's house.

he does a great job of hiding it, maybe he's missing his calling as a spy.
