Play him on the wing in attack only and switch to FB when defending

That cant be hard to sort out can it?


That's the biggest "WELL DURR!" I've ever heard in Rugby but remarkably noone has ever mentioned it before. :shock: let's hope someone at Wigan sees that suggestion and does it. That'd be great I think. Only problem is if we make an interception up the field and Richards isn't close enough then he may not be able to get to the corner but let;s be honest how often do we make any sort of interception and break? HA!

Conroy - Being a Latics fan i'm already immune to watching sh*te.

Sally Cinnamon - Treat the Saints forum as you would if you met a girl from St Helens. Best policy would be to avoid altogether but if you absolutely can't resist temptation then take every possible precaution.

i remember at one point in the second half at Hull, Amos collected the ball at the posts and proceeded to beat 2 players before being tackled....

When was the last time a wigan full back done that :?


Very true, as much as I like Pat at FB, his kick-return's not good.

Do you not recall his first season playing in the centres? I'd clone 4, 2 wings, a FB and a reserve in case of injury.

I thought Roberts looked fairly good at full back, apart from one mistake in both games he's done pretty well. I'd like too see him run the ball back with more venom though, can't stand seeing players jog horizontally on kick returns looking for a gap that doesn't exist.

Wellens 3/10 Like public transport. Late, slow and stunk

we did miss him, but only as a scapegoat. Hopefully the rest of the team will get their fair share of criticism now.

Not that I am saying Ritchie doesnt deserve all he got (and more)
