Hopefully the rumour about Hock being ok is true and we can move onto the Huddersfield game with our most dangerous player in the side. It would be a massive blow to see him miss any part of the season for us but especially at the minute as we're trying to get back on an even keel after a poor start.

Gutted about O'Carroll is that proves to be true.

Real shame if true.

He's still not big enough to be a prop imo, however, his attitude is top notch, and I like the lad.

Cant argue with that, IMO his future is not at Wigan, sad but true.

How come people are having a go at Eamon now?

He's been one of our best players so far this season

He is still very young for a prop and has bags of potential, he just needs a bit more bulk and we could have a Danny Nutley type prop on our hands for the next 10-12 years

Letting him go would be a massive mistake

I would keep him atm if only for his enthusiasm.

Hopefully he can develop into a decent squad player.

If we are aiming to build a squad to match StH and Leeds, it is key that we keep players like EO'C. Hes a quality squad player, who will never be a World Star but will never let us down. Very similar to Hansen - they may not have the best physiques, but their attitude and effort are impeccable.
Same mould as Mick Cass.

Not ' having a go' its just my opinion, I dont believe he has the frame to bulk up much more, the day of the Danny Nutley type prop are gone, cant fault his attitude or enthusiasm but that can only take you so far.

Thats not enough IMO, I hope your right and prove me wrong about the lad, only time will tell.

I know what you are saying, and I think that he is too small for a prop too.

Maybe there is a role that he can play as a utility forward? I don't know.


I hope he can evolve into something like this as he has a great attitude that can only rub off on other people.

Cant see it.


True, can you imagine Karl Pryce with that attitude, the bloke would be a monster !!!!!!!!!
