I have seen enough of the pig in the NRL not to be worried. I think it's worth remembering how a large section of the fans wanted rid of Pat Richards to go after half a season. Give him time, he has the class and will come good.

ANCIENT & LOYAL UPON MY CHEST

Ancient and loyal, upon my chest
they are men of wigans best
a team that plaaayed, the wigan way
and won the championship in may

jim sullivan, he was the king
brian mctigue and johnny ring
a team that plaaayed the wigan way
and won the championship in may

when eric ashton was alive
and billy boston by his side
with dave bolton and billy blan
oh what a time to be a fan

in 85, at wem-ber-ly
john ferguson and brett kenny
a team that plaaayed the wigan way
and won the challenge cup in may

in 95 we won them all
tuigamala, faz and paul
a team that played the wigan way
and won the championship in may

I think people can accept that ad I hope he is gunna be a good un. The problem I have is if he isnt fit he should be gaining match fitness in the reserves, not plodding about in the first team looking like a slug. That is one of the things the reserves is for

Have the Reserves had any games for him to do that yet? Personally I'm happy to see him in the 1st team.

He's a better player would be the main one. Like I said, I'm happy to see him in the first team, whether or not anyone else is doesn't bother me.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

Again, you must be watching a different game to me.

Twice, he passed the ball to no-one in particular, and even the Sky muppets picked up on a couple of his head-high passes.


No they didn't.

I've just watched the game again from start to finish and Mick and Montmerency NEVER comment on Riddells passing.

I'll stand by my original comments that Riddell had a good game.

I suggest you watch the game again.

One thing I did notice is that we conceded three tries on the last tackle.
It would be interesting to see how many last tackle tries we have concede this season.

90% would disagree though. He was only brought back on because it was Smith or Riddel and he won that battle. Wigan were a better team without Riddel than with him. You seem to have a real problem criticising Wigan.
