Well of the two first team debutantes in todays match one stood out head and shoulders above the other for effort, work rate and presence on the field, and the other did OK and scored a try.

OK isn't good enough for Wigan, if you disagree, take the matter up with Shaun Wane.

And hell will freeze over before i'll ever agree with your astute assessment, get over it.

We never went wide hardly ever today, just kept banging up the middle, but when we did both sides either scored or went close to scoring. Like I just wrote Pryce offers more physical presence than Charnley and thats important for me in that type of game. I'd give Charnley a run out next week over Pryce if was down to me but not today.

Thank the lord you aint the Wigan coach.

We took the ball right far far more and Hudds took it left far far more, Marsh was caught out for Gilmour's try, went for glory when he should have passed (and didn't even come close to making it), and fluffed a pass to Goulding that was a likely further try.

I actually think Marsh had a decent debut and did some good things, equally I think Karl had a decent game overall to (given the amount of play that side)

And thank feck you aren't. =#FF0040The coach however actually did select him, even though he's apparently rubbish, not an RL player and does nothing in the reserves.

Go figure.

Again your missing the point. Read the other posts. Are you seriously suggesting thats all I am saying?

think pryce stands head and shoulders above most people
not impressed with marsh (thats my opinion)missed too many tackles

I've read all your posts on the matter, and I violently disagree with your assessment. Sam Tomkins copped similar flack about 'looking for work' during a particular 4 nations game from a lot of opposition fans, I defended him just as vigorously. If you play a structured team sport, you damn well had better be in the position you've been asked to play, following the patterns both in attack and defence that you've been asked to.

Frankly I couldn't give a flying one whether a player looks interested or not, if he does the job he's been tasked with by the coach and satisfies the coach then that's all that matters.

I have always been confident Pryce would come good and to be fair, i do no think any other backup winger at Wigan would have scored the try he finished, BUT his skill level and enthusiasm today was poor when basically the stage was set for him to make an impact.

I still think he has a future as a good rugby league player but it will not be at Wigan his confidence is shot to pieces.

Hope he gets a run vs Widnes but doubt we will see much more of him in the Cherry and White.

I doubt he will select him much in the future though, Lazy Bones struggled to jog off the pitch.

You need to calm down.

Poor in the reserves.
Did nothing today, he had his chance, he has been here a few years, do you not expect him to come in all guns blazing?
I would rather have another young player in his place using this chance to develop. Would that not be more beneficial?
Save the cap space and get rid.
If you think the performance today was good enough then, ok.


I really really really hope he proves me wrong, I just don't see it.

As for you not wanting player to look for work, well, the best players in the world do. Lockers does and he gets praise for it.

Exactly.

Pryce did nothing wrong whatsoever today.

Pryce did ok today and thats at least a start for him. He really needs to try and get himself more involved in taking the ball out of his own half but maybe that will come in time. He did take his try well and bar a couple of little fumbles looked pretty solid.

We should let him continue against Widnes and take it from there.

Id rather send him to Widnes, id much rather have us facing him than Shaun.

I'm sorry but I won't calm down when I feel some of the things that are being said about another human being and one of our players by a few of our fans are out of order.

Did nothing today? You mean apart from score and stop a try? Now you can feel that's not enough it's your right, but please leave out the bull that he did nothing.

As for Lockers i'd expect my 13 to be looking for work. If however I played him on the wing and either us or the other team made breaks and he was in the middle of the park meaning we didn't have an overlap or had allowed an overlap on his wing, then i'd be really fecked off.

For a winger in his first SL game of the season I felt he did ok.

As jonh stated he scored a try that actually took a fair bit of scoring and didn't get caught out defensively, uninspiring? maybe rubbish? certainly not.

We won't be facing Ainscough will we?

I thought i read we'd said he couldn't play in the cup for Widnes.

In terms of Pryce i'm not his biggest fan and I always can't help but feel rugby league really doesn't matter too much to him and he doesn't look like he enjoys playing the game but he did ok today. We have a few injuries and unless they improve very quickly i'd imagine we'll be seeing him again next week.

Maybe a run of games will build up his confidence and fitness.

Blimey, should Shaun Ainscough will not make it at Wigan, i dread to think how the suicide rate in Wigan will be affected.

Maybe as you are RHJ (i mean you and)



should worry about the nasty man named IL.

There is some drivel posted on here, it's embarrassing to be a Wigan fan really when you have to wade through tripe like it..

Pryce had a solid game, only his 8th SL game in our colours and didn't look out of place at the level, although it's obvious that the usual scapegoat routine rubbish is happening again and that to some segment of 'fans' that Pryce is this seasons Hodgson, Brown, Mathers etc...

What the hell are you talking about?

You know i know..the third person talk got quite boring.

I have no idea, other than you claiming im another poster on here, which im not.

So explain away.

Night Nighy Red Hot Chilli Peppers..

Im amused you think im him. But I can assure you im not, as other posters on here can verify.

So you and your deluded and frankly bizzare fantasy can run along now.
