So Brown has a track record for threatening violence if things don't go his way. I think even less of him now than I did last ngiht.

Did he get any punishment for this? Surely the second time he's made a public outburst to this effect he should get some kind of punishment, otherwise he will definitely have the green light to say stuff like this any time he wants. It wasn't even a dirty game yesterday, no fighting (unless you count Mason v McIllorum but that was nothing really) and no injuries from foul play. The player who really deserved 10 minutes was Keith Mason who was niggling at everybody.

I can't remember the warrington incident that you mention. The saints one, he was penalised for a high tackle on a player that had the ball at the time. Disciplinary committee ruled penalty sufficient, no warning. It wasn't a late shot off the ball or anything like that. Just a standard high tackle that you see every week.

| good coaching imo - yeah he looks like a whinger but we all know the rfl will give him a slap on thw wrist - the clever thing is what will the ref focus be on for the next few weeks, especially those reffing us? late hits, high hits, attention ished out to small guys.
this is how fergie an mourinho get what they want too.

| According to Sky Sports Lockers is anxiously waiting to see if he is cited tomorrow. (I dont know where they have got that from).
Now I may be cynical but if he gets a ban we play Widnes and Hudds next. So is this Brown's way of weakening our team for the re-match?

Alternatively, the ref's focus might be on the two Huddersfield forwards who Brown rather unwisely nominated to be his avengers. If either of those two get up to anything - and let's face it, it won't be difficult provoking them - we could be seeing a red card (or even two).

I really dont remember that. If he had wanted to leave Rugby League that badly he would have gone. It wasn't exactly Peanuts that the Rugby Union was offering.
As for Internationally, Keiron represented Wales/GB 23 times, Jason Robinson managed 19 appearances for England/GB before actually taking the Money and running off to Rugby Union. Does that diminish Robinson's Rugby League Career?

disagree, brown will get a telling off but the basic jist of the comment is 'if the refs are going to be so bad then...'
so, to avoid anymore bad press, the rfl will ensure their refs arent so bad and will assure nathan brown, whilst rollocking him, that their refs will be watching what he wants.

Yes, personally. He'll never be remembered with the same affection by me as other Wigan stars of that era will.
Call me prejudiced. I don't care. I'm not naive enough to think that players are motivated by anything other than money, but I felt a little let-down the way he legged off at the first sign of a big RU payday.
As for KFC's quote - I suggest you ask around among older Saints fans. Something of that order was definitely said and quoted in a newspaper, and it annoyed an awful lot of Saints fans as well.

| What a thoroughly professional upstanding lover this Nathan Brown is - Nathan I salute you for your completeness in living up to the hype you brought with you from Oz
Perhaps your undoubted talents would be better served in Aussie Rules, with your attitude, I don't think you have anything more to contribute to our game over here.
Owned by Maguire...... again it would seem

I think you’re crediting Brown with more brains than the quotes from him on League Central suggest that he has. Far more.

I'm sort of in agreement with you mate, however, I still think he was an outstanding player.
Do you also think the same about Farrell?
As for Keiron, I will have to ask them, Im 26 but cant remember anything like this at the time. I've done a brief check on the internet too and can't find any quote anywhere that suggests anything like this?

Faz turned down union on more than one occasion.
he sweated blood for wigan since being 17..he was coming to the end of his career at the very top level..if anyone deserved a huge pention pay off it was faz..And i will never slate him for taking it..because of the player he had been for us, and the timing of the move too.

I think Farrell in the end actually ended up doing us a massive favour in the long run. He was on a really big wedge, was getting injured more and more, and we got a nice sum of cash for him. Hurt us in the short term for sure, but for the best all round overall I think.

I think Faz's stop-start Union career indicated that his body had more or less taken all it could.
I didn't like it at the time, and it seemed to send us into a tailspin form wise, but I think that was mainly down to the club being hopelessly mismanaged both on the field and off it.
For these reasons, I can't say that Farrel's departure peeved me as much as Robinson's did.
