Yes I agree. There was none of the rubbish spouted in the first post of this link prior to 2010.

Those on this site who - for example - imply that Cas are inbreds and backwards probably wouldn't agree.

For most of his SL career he wasn't any sort of good - he was outstanding.

Yep, you definitely got the best of the Bradford and GB front rowers.

You'll be telling us he was better at Union next

Ok... there's banter, there's trolling and there's complete and utter bollox.
The above falls into the latter category.
Moron.

I have noticed you like to use the word "hick" a lot. Quite childish to be honest. You do know what it means don't you?

I have noticed you like to gain pleasure by posting pictures of a player being stretchered off a rugby pitch with a serious injury.

So that would be after he was at Leeds, who you allege signed him [u past[/u his best?
Quote ="warrior1973"Senior never been any good'"
Ha ha. Good one. No, wait. I don't get it.
Anyway, wasn't your first rabid, ill-conceived point that Leeds only signed players past their best? In which case you think Senior was actually better at Sheffield than he was at Leeds? In which case you are Ronald McDonald.
Quote ="warrior1973"JP just an average club player'"
Uh-huh.
Quote ="warrior1973"Harris was better at Bradford'"
If you can find me a Bradford fan who believes that and isn't Mick Gledhill I'll be amazed.
In general, you FAIL really, really hard.

Very good!
The bit I was getting at was "simple English littered with colloquialisms and mistakes esp. improper use of pronouns, contractions and incorrect verb tenses or conjugation".
The poster using the word "hick" a lot fails to grasp the above and if it was any other derogatory term being thrown about I'm sure he would have been warned about it by now!

Hmmm, if us Leeds supporters are jealous/envious of any other side from the Super League era, it could possibly be Bradford or more likely St Helens for their outstanding achievements relative to the other sides in the history of the SL Comp...But Wigan? Oh dear talk about unfounded arrogance...

Dont talk rubbish, it goes back a lot further than Super League. Do you not remember that far back or are part of the new era at Leeds.

Whilst I really appreciate the rich heritage of Rugby League, indeed the very existence of RL is bound to force its followers to have a sharper sense of history than pretty much all other sports, sadly Wigan's dominant team of the late 80's early 90's registers only as a blip. Why? Because your success at the time was simply bought (at a very high price it seems - judging by your current position as second class tenants on your home midden).
Indeed celebrating your success and acknowledging your dominance from that time would be like putting any of the current Super League sides in the championship and gloating at the fact that they won all their games against the part time guys!
For me in the salary cap and full time professional era it makes more sense to of look at teams consistently competing on a (more) level playing field. That means the Super League era an era in which St Helens, Bradford and Leeds have truly dominated

That is absolutely SPOT ON.
A Wiganer will never, in a million years, submit to that argument. Probably rightly so, for pride's sake. But that is a fantastic post.
