Feared the worst when I watched the replay at Half time under the stand.
It was an amazing try for starters but what a way for it to all end up. As he went for the line Millard came over and his weight went on Roberts leg(which was trapped up against the post padding) which to me just looked to buckle. They signalled straight away to the touchline and Roberts leg looked in a bad way(slightly bent).
I'd be suprised if we see him again in 2010 which is heartbreaking because he's been playing so well but we can't afford to dwell on it. We got so many good options so we'll just have to get on with it.
Definitely puts a dampener on the result today. The suspected broken leg was caused by crashing into the left upright whilst in the process of scoring a try which defied belief. A 50 metre run dancing around and handing off 4-5 Wakey players, absolutely awesome try spoiled by him being stretchered off.
Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good - sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league - Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate - the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever - Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go - Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know - FIOS
I want to see it again to see how it managed to break whilst taking into account the supposed protective padding.
We really need Phelps to be fit and regain his pre injury form quickly.
Phelps Goulding Gleeson Carmont/Bailey Richards
I wonder if this moves Pryce any nearer to an appearance.
We are more likely to see Ainscough recalled or Charnley coming in IMO. If we are going on form it should be.
I'm now pretty worried without Phelps and Roberts, seriously gutted for the guy. Looked like he was really enjoying his rugby, the form player in super league.

I agree, I was just posing the question

I know, the extent of what is wrong with Phelps is vague tbh, I hope he is back in next week. We need his link up play.
