How many times is a player penalised before being sent off?

He looked quite a decent player a few years back but seems to have morphed into a penalty machine, he just killed St.Helens today with his needless penalties that gifted us possesion for long periods of time.

Nathan Brown has a lot of work to do in the off season with this bunch.

Always picked for England / GB, anyone have any idea why?

Wilkin is Wilkin......I was pretty shocked to see him tackle one of our lads round the legs at one point, having spent the whole of the match after the biff tackling above the shoulder

Poor player who has a half decent kick on him

he pooped his pants when he was penalised after a high shot on Mossop after the scrap.

But in the next tackle ended up around Mossop's head and then high tackle on Sam.

Bet he gets picked for the Exiles game though.

He's hardly good enough for Saints let alone England.

He was a good player back in his day 2004-06 then once all the good stains players left he was found out. Says om his twaiitter site that hes an avid tea drinker? I think he should take a real pg tip and retire with Wellens

Couldn't believe how many high tackles he got away with, Particularly after that fight he must have been done at the very least 4 times for high shots, The ref was more than happy to give straight reds after the biff but didn't do anything about persistant high shots.

He should have been off for those tackles - worse than the biff and far more dangerous.

He is the sort of player you could happily take a piece of four by two to. Perhaps he does get picked because if he doesnt he will skweem and skweem and skweem until he is sick! Did he get involved in the punch-up or was he using Thayler as a shield? I will have to watch the replay to decide this one.

On another tangent about Wilkin, could you take him serious if he was sat opposite you at a negotiating table? NO?? Neither could I!!!!

Absolute weasel of a man. He needs a good shoeing.

Wilkin really is the definition of an average player. For years he stole a living in good St Helens teams and now he is playing in a very average one he is showing just how average he actually is. He is not big enough for a forward, is slow (almost Wellensesque) and isnt particulalry skillful. He is Widnes standard and always has been. How he has ever got picked for England is quite amazing with some of the forwards that we have got.

Just can't understand why anyone in the St.Helens side would want to hand Wigan field position, they were the most obvious penalties you could give straight in front of the referee and what made matters worse is that he just continued to do it. Makes you wonder how many penalties you can actually get away with giving without being sent from the field of play, can't imagine he will be too popular with his team mates after that performance.

Testimonial year as well.

Wathcing the Super League Show back. Wilkin is the guest player and he's sporting a peach of a shiner so he got his just desserts for the swinging arm-fest he treated us to

To be fair, he did talk some sense about the brawl - bring back the biff!

Calling Wilkin, try looking at Hock the slap head.

Surprised he's not had his two penneth with the press yet. No doubt we will read all about it in't sintellins star!

Yes Hock has done drugs in the past and he is a ehouse. But hes our ehouse and hes a damn good player and I wouldnt swap him for any other second rower in the world. Especially not Wilkin. I wouldnt swap any of our second rowers for Wilkin. Not even lads playing in the under 18s. He is a waste of space. So glad he is at Saints.

The sad thing is that he is a media whore and is probably going to join the already bad enough Sky team once his painfully average rugby career is over.

And yet who would you have in your side at the end of the day?

Thanks very much. Goodbye.

Hope so.



He can then counter some of the ridicoulous Phil Clarke / Carney / O'Connor blatant pro-Wigan bias.
Come on even a wigan supporter must be embarassed by Clarkey - its excruciating to watch. At least Wilkin (who I agree is well past it and is a one man penalty machine - for opponents) thinks before he opens his big gob.

By the way Sam is doing a good job on Sky as well - is this cynical attempt (and apparently sucessful) to bypass the SC available to all clubs with talented youngsters who might leave for Oz or even worse Rah Rah,

I just love to see you bitter Stains watching your club slide...

Yes because Eddie and Stevo dont more than make up for that apparent pro-Wigan bias?



And by the way no the attempt to bypass the Salary Cap is only available to Wigan as we obviously develop the best young british players

How is it bypassing salary cap rules if players have jobs away from their playing careers? Cameron Smith does media work to the tune of $100,000 a year for Foxtell.
