    For example, Lance Hohaia is one of the worse players I've ever seen in Super League. No exaggeration.
    I don't know why anyone would think you're exaggerating, he was rubbish here too.

      The Baaaaaargiss brothers have given us a taste of what to expect from the English:
      - Squirrel grips.
      - Dangerous tackles.
      - Randomly throwing sign posts through the window of your car for no reason.

      If they pull any of that $hit I'll get Todd Carney to light their pants on fire. Then I'll set them up with hookers and ruin them.

        I stll recall going back to the club one Sunday afternoon early on in the season where they had a signing session after the match There was Mullins sitting there at the end of the table with nobody except myself and my girlfriend who came up and spoke with him
        You're still spoken of in glowing terms throughout West Yorkshire.

            I've always thought the old credit/blame thingy wacked Shandy.

            I mean Mullos, whom I really respect and enjoyed watching, was just a winger with us. Sure he offered some great expierence but a leading hand in the 02 GF, I just don't see it.

            Conversely pRicky as our coach generally gets zero credit for 02 but is blamed for losing in 03 and 04.

            Something doesn't really add up with that sorta shit.

            Credit and blame are often emotional fanboy reactions IMO.

              Seeing this is Rugby League related I shall respond I have always lauded Stuarts achievemnts Moreso on the old wall than here as it is now ancient history

              Mullins did play a leading hand Scoring the winning try scooping up a loose ball and racing away 65 metres to score against Broncos Also he played major hand in the opening try in the GF after being put away down the wing by Fletcher he then gave someone a beautiful old fashioned dont srgue fend to get clear and put Hegarty over His experience as you have touched on was invaluable Make no mistake Mullins did play a leading hand in us winning the GF

                Meh I don't disagree with your facts Shandy but I do disagree with the credit you're giving Mullos on that day but opinions are like arseholes and you're entitled, all good.

                That was a sweet play, the fend and ball were sublime.

                I still credit Mozz and Freddy for that day. IMO they took the game away from The Gorillas attempt at inspiring The Bros.


                Do LOLs count as footy related replies???

                    One of the best things to come from Wigan was the Northern Soul scene made famous at the Wigan Casino Dance Hall during the 70s and later Dexys Midnite Runners - Keep the Faith the motto
