| Quote ="NickyKiss"No way is it our trophy already(Well it is but but it's not ours to keep without alot of hard work) but like I say i'd back our work ethic and general fitness over pretty much every other side in the league. I'm not saying we're nailed on by any means but in the same breath I know I can say without being arrogant that it will take a very good side to stop us winning the title again this year. I believe Wire may be that side because theres no lack of talent and on a man for man basis your just as good as Wigan talent wise but like I say going back to a fitness issue and a work ethic issue i'd back us against anyone.
I'm a pessimistic git at the best of times and i don't say it lightly when I say we're a very good side. Thats not being arrogant because it's a fact. No side wins a superleague title without being a very good side.'"
you are a cracking side! no doubt! and i dont think it is fair to say Wire, as a team aren't fit. If i remember rightly last year it was one a piece between our two great teams. It's been said a lot on our board we lost 5 games last year through missed kicks for example. That isn't fitness, that was a missing skill point.
I do think Wigan will win but there are 4 teams who will be there and there abouts, we have (hopefully) shown we can manage injuries so far, can other teams? i always think that has the big say so in a season.
good luck for sunday and good luck for the year (not too much though)

| He's abit like Jarrad Sammut, he has the ability to single handedly win a game, but can also just as easily lose a game.
I wouldnt have him or Sammut at Wigan, happy with what we've got. However if we were offered them pre Maguire, I would have snatched them in a heartbeat.

he got BATTERED.... M.monaghan owned him big style... then Carvell smashed him.

We're not even in March, and you've shown yourself to be foolish. Come June, what are you going to look like
Solomona can resemble Mr Creosote if he wants, just as long he's off loading try-scoring passes.

and dropping the ball over the try line!!... Get over yourself.. this is a message board... and a wigan message board at that... We can have an opinion just like you.. to call anybody foolish for expressing their opinion is just embarrasing... now jog on...before you wake up in the morning with a face...

How much must they eat and drink when they are exercising so much each day?'"
Three former NRL players whom's physiques haven't changed since their Australian days.
Are you deliberately obtuse?

If you don't think its embarassing for any professional athlete to look like a Dart player then OK... but it sure isn't my opinion...

You have no knowledge of the game...he is a game changer!
he will never be an 80 minute player at the top level, he isnt in the team for hard yards, he isnt in the team for massive hits! He is in the team for the sole purpose of drawing in two or three or four mean and still having the incredible ability to get the ball out causing a great overlap! As long as othe people cover his weaknesses then all is good.
You had Feka for a few years and he is nowhere near the player Solomona is. Prime example is M.Monaghan vs Feka in 2009 CC semi final, the way he ran feka ragged and feka didn't get a sniff of the ball shows how these players can be ineffective whereas on the whole solomona has often changed games for us.

I will will type this s l o w l y for the hard of thinking, ie; you.
The aforementioned have not altered their physique, nor style of play since the inception of their playing career in the competition deemed the best in the world.
Does thinking cause blackouts for you?

| All i can say is that i can't believe how niggly & dirty Wire are.
From the first min with Morley's elbow to Briers constant moaning.
Wire are the dregs of SL and that's putting it lightly tbh.

Read my posts... where did I say David was not good at what he does... just like Feka with his barging runs...and in Davids case his offloads... yes he can change a game.. but like feka because of his size he is less mobile in defense and therefore leaves gaps which can be exploited by say Sam Tomkins. If you want to have that type of player in your side then OK... but IMO I would much sooner have an all round player like joel Tomkins/Liam Farrell who IMO offer far more to the team than an offload here and there.. and if you look at the Micheal maguire he seems to think along the same lines..
I still think its embarassing to have a player so overweight in your team.. What message does it send out to young players coming through the system ?

| and he racked up some decent game time, i'd say around 50-55 minutes (two games for feka)
Sol and Feka are different kettles of fish!
you say Sol doesn't belong in a champion team yet remember the offload he did in the CC semi to help us through to the final? He's a former NZ international and wasn't in different shape then!

So you don't think David is bigger now than when he first came over to England to Play??
Feka had a lot less body fat when he came over.. lost it under Maguire and has now put it back on...
Widders.. I didn't really see him play in the NRL
Where did I compare superleague to the NRL?... answer... I didn't... I clearly stated that it was embarassing to have such overweight players trunddling around in our game... whether it be in the NRL or Superleague..

Ha ha ha ha ha.
ATEOTD we are the current SL champions about to play in the WCC. We got there after demolishing Saints in a play off game. You on the other hand have the same record as Cas in the play offs.
If you think beating a poor Saints side is enough to come on here and give the high and mighty then you might wanna think again about what message board you are on.
Come back when you win against Saints in a game that matters.
BTW enjoy watching us on Sunday achieve what you Wire scum never will.

Deary deary me.
Why have a debate on rugby when you can just call people scum eh? Clearly your levels of ability to debate are not that great?
one year of success out of the last ten(ish) and you back to being gods gift to rugby? Dont get me wrong your a good team but your fans are talking like your form of yesteryear have never stopped.
We have won more :3q9bgkl8[u:3q9bgkl8MAJOR[/u:3q9bgkl8 trophies than wigan in the last two years? Are we great? no, but heading in the right direction.
Have some modesty for gods sake.

| Does it really matter? How you can critisize Solomona for being fat when you had Feka in your team? At least Solomona doesn't fall over his own weight, which Feka did on several occasions.
