| To get a chance you have to earn it. If he earns it MM will play him ive no doubts about that. He obviously thinks he is either not good enough or he isnt doing enough to deserve a chance. He wont leave somebody in reserve who is good enough for the first team when we have injuries. MM has been spot on this season and I trust his judgement over anybody elses.

"They're paying an Australian £180,000 plus this season which takes up three players' wages.

"Don't get me wrong, Trent Barrett is great for Super League but none of it's great for England, especially when the 2008 World Cup comes around - and people like Chris Ashton aren't there."'"

Whilst i think that assesment is a little harsh, its very hard to argue against, yes he scored some tries when he played for the first team (not seen any reserve games), but more often than not he didnt burn the house down, now there may of course be many good reasons for this, however if he is on the pitch he should be judged amongst the same criteria as everyone else, and to be fair he has been poor. Like I say there may be reasons we are all unaware of.
The game where he was booed when he touched the ball, was one of the most depressing things i have ever seen at a Wigan game. However booing aside, he got on the pitch banged his head and went back off, now he may have had the worlds biggest hit, but it didnt look like there was much in it from where i was sat. I cant understand why wigan fans where booing him, however i can understand how many think he is a waste of cap space.
He strikes me as one of those people my grandad used to refer to as "would get hurt in mother care"
With all the injuries we have to our back line over the last few games, he hasnt even been mentioned, and for me that silence is deafening, do I hope he goes onto be a wigan great, of course i do! Do i think he will be here beyond this season? To be honest i dont.

I was just going to ask which bits are incorrect.
Fortunately we aren't run like that anymore.

well i was personaly told from one of the players that play along side him. Like i said in my post i have no way of knowing if it is true or not. I have no idea how anyone else has come up with the same figure either.

| The issue seems to me that Pryce has never fully recovered from injury leading to a lack of confidence. I've seen Pryce play twice this season in the reserves and he seems to rub his leg/move gingerly/ regularly after contact. Suggests to me until he's fully fit his confidence and work rate will never be enough to get him into the first team.
I'm unconvinced loaning him would do him much good in his current state. Though if he's judged to be fully fit it would be the best thing for him and the club. As some have said a player with Pryce's attributes and the correct mental strength he would be a huge asset for us.

| He should be given a chance in the Challenge Cup.
Though as many have said it's unlikely he's going to get a new contract - we have a lot of injuries and he's not in the running.

| Whats with all the booing crap anyway??? A few lost games and the same element will be booing the whole team. Is it not better to support and help them try to play better?

He probably will be given his chance in the CC. As will a few other U21's I suspect. If he can produce the goods, good for him. If not then goodbye IMO.

get shut, save the cash, and give it to some of our local lads who at least will give it a go.

I'd personally like to see some of our fans go out on loan, be got rid of etc before Karl.

exactly why karl pryce may never be a success at Wigan. He has never got a fair crack of the whip here. It'll take two good performances and he will win most fans over. Only problem is has he got two good performances in him? Its hard to perform well when your low on confidence, and you know as soon as you make a mistake some fans will be lighting torches, grabbing pitch forks and rolling up their sleeves for a good old witch hunt.

Is that the game when he came on and played out of position and got injured straight away? The crowds reaction made me really proud to be a Wigan fan that day.

| i think we should play feka at stand off and see how well he plays, and if he gets injured all the better, then we will really be able to see how good he is.
get real, how can you judge a player when he is playing out of position (even the noble supporters think playing pryce at stand off was wrong) and in a game when he gets injured.
give the lad a FAIR chance.

| I think if he got a chance in the Challange cup he would get a bit more leeway so to speak with the team doing so well. Surely people cant boo him if he has a shaky start in a cup game with the team top of the league can they?
