I saw him at Tesco the other day and he looked like a really nice guy with the way he was speaking to people.

It's also good that he is a Wigan lad, trent would of been a great captain, but no one knows how much it means to the fans as much as people like Lockers.

I think also a reason for people complaining about his captaincy has been in line with our results, had we performed on the pitch since he took over, no one would complain, but people need a player or coach to blame things on.

I think the problem is no matter how good he is as a captain he can’t do it all by himself.

Even the best captains can’t do it on their own just look at Saints who have Cunningham, Long, Cayless & Gidley or Leeds with Sinfield, Burrow, Senior, Webb & Peacock. One of the greatest leaders we’ve had in Faz had players like Rads, Furner, Lam, Cassidy, O’Connor, Newton, Dallas, Renouf etc with him on the pitch or on the training ground.

I’m sure if Lockers had three or four other players who could be the skipper in the team with him he’d be even better than he is now.

What is Rads on about he has clearly lost his mind, there is of course no such thing as leading by example!!





Rads comments just echo the sentiments of most sensible posters on here who do not hold him as a direct replacement for Faz, Hanley, Bell etc but judge him on his own merits and what he brings to the party both on and off the field.

Well he is hardly going to say "That Lockers is a sh*te captain" now is he?


I stick by my opinion of him.

No but if he didn't think it he wouldn't have wrote it in his autobiography would he

If he thought he was a sh*te captain, why would he even discuss the captaincy at Wigan.

"Radders in book signing, complementary comments/inclusions about present Wigan skipper shocker"


Want to buy some snake oil?

What are your reason's for, lets say, not being so keen on him then?

Heard at a parade in Wigan
Look mum
"They're all out of step except our Brett"

Simple really.


I believe that his captaincy has hurt Wigan RL in the past and I am keen for it not to do so in the future.

If you had a day job, I would recommend not giving it up.


If you have an opinion to post, post it. Posting some cr*p juvenille dross simply because you don't agree with a poster makes you look a numpty.

For what reason has his captaincy hurt Wigan RL?

Is this just as a captain or do you think he is a poor and, or, overated player?

If I was someone who put quotes on my sig, that would be quote number one.

Well my comment was about his captaincy. There have been games where he needed to impose himself on the team to turn it around or to bolster the spirit to hang onto a lead.


How he does this, be it through "example" or a boll*cking, I wouldn't have minded, the key thing was the result.

Sadly on far too many occasions it never happened. For that reason I am out.



As a player I would rate him as average. Certainly worthy on current form of making the team but not a superstar as some on here would like us to believe.

And XBrettKennyX in too stubborn to accept Lockers is an excellent club captain at Wigan RL shocker.

You see there is a difference here.


To post an opinion with an argument counter to that of another poster, with evidence to support your opinion is great.


To simply post





or

BK you are a muppet etc

Shows a distinct lack of intelligence, not to mention class.

Seriously pall have a look in the mirror your the biggest hypocrite posting on these boards!

You clearly fall into the ignorant fans category that Rads is talking about, unable to understand the finer points of the game. Thats fine though nothing to be ashamed of.

Indeed. Now let's look at your PM to me again shall we?

mate your as weak s mickey all mouth no trousers and aotl hypocrit. Laughing



You are a genius. Now move along.

I think the first bit is jumping to a conclusion, we have no idea what he says to the players, it could be the players fault for not responding, if he was a captain in a team of world class players who also help lead the team, maybe he would have a different impact.

The second part I beleive to be slightly harsh, he has been our best and most consistant player this season. He is always one of the few players who puts their body on the line every game giving 100%. To say he is average overall is an opinion, but surely with you watching rugby for a few years, you must realise he has vastly improved his game recently and has been quality for us this season.

What has that to do with the price of fish? Flattered you saved it by the way. Still waiting for the info after the last trademark dummy spit.

Lack of class all over, as usual no come back so revert to the old critique of spelling or name calling.

Not one but many many far more qualified people than you recognise Locky as a leader, a player and a captain. You do not, or simply will not accept or understand the qualities Locky brings to the team, hence in the words of Rads you fall into the ignorant category.

Get a grip BK. You're starting to sound like a complete idiot.

Best man for the job in our squad.

And here is he

Ok people.

Let's not get personal over opinions.
