What a distinguished career eh?!?! Who ever signed him at wigan should never be employed again!!

Really dark times for the club then...murry,koloi, lester, Lee hansen etc!! at least now we only have the odd one or two to worry about!!

Mathers must be so pleased for that signing 12 years ago though....but for offering doc murray a trial mathers would have the distinction of Wigan RLFCs Worst Ever Full Back!

We had Mathers for a season as a youngster & he was excellent.

yer it was mate, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desi_Williams

He was given his chance in the first team at Wigan Warriors in 2004. After a decent first game he was criticised for his bad performance a week later against Castleford Tigers in which he dropped numerous high ball's in dangerous territory and was subsequently dropped the week later.

Some Salford fan said to me and I quote "You are by far and away the most Handsome & Knowledgeable Rugby League Fan in England!"

I thanked him and went on my Merry way!

RIVERCAVE DWELLER OF THE YEAR 2015!

"The club used you last night and didn't tell the truth."

Wasn't Monie!

I had a LONG Chat with Monie when He came back to Wigan in 1998 and the main Crux of the conversation was that we must NEVER sign a player as bad as that again!

I think if we cou;ld get to the Bottom of the facts You will find it wasnt Hughes either, I think a certain J Robinson may be to blame for that one!

I remember one game which Moran played in when he was really really shocking and it was almost unbareable to watch and it was the last straw really. Cant remember who it was against though.


Moran played Full back against us in the 75-0 game and had an absolute nightmare. I have never seen a guy look so fed up walking back to the kick off from behind the posts after some of the stick he was getting from a group of Saints Lads.

Poor Old Dennis, if he had worse games than that, he must have been bad!
Who's inspired signing was he anyway?
