Obviously it is a worry having to replace our aged squad over the next couple of seasons. We wouldn't have this problem if they were all as young as Joel Tomkins and Thomas Leulai.

Will you be receiving £250,000 for any of your golden oldies when they retire?

No, but Moran will make that in interest in less than a week.

We don't have to make him look reasonable. He was one of the, if not the best centre in super league in 2011.

This site constantly infuriates me with the number of pointless threads and supposed 'banter' which is no more than primary school arguing.
I'd rather just find out rugby news and talk to other rugby league fans, you know, like you would talk to them in a pub before/after a game. Some people just need to grow up.
This post is in no way aimed solely at the posters on the Warrington boards, I just happened to have my little b**ch fit at this point

I hope you realise that if you had been a Wire fan posting something like that on the Wigan Board, you would have copped a ban by now.
OK, so we have some experienced players who are getting on in years, but we also have a fair bit of very exciting youth coming through. Last year we had to put up with post after post about Joel, and the 'holier than thou' Wigan Taliban were the worst. Then Wigan sign someone who's major achievement in the game is to squeeze one out in a public place and some people see it as an opportunity to get a bit of revenge. Joel has done well and behaved himself since he arrived and things have calmed down. Gelling will find the same if he behaves and keeps his cheeks clenched closely together.
It just so happens that we do occasionally have some good debate on here.

When I said 'this site' I don't mean the Warrington board exclusively. I mean on Wigan board, Leeds, Warrington, Saints etc.

I didn't say anything negative about Warrington fans, players, club or anything in any way.
My point was that there are numerous people on this site (rlfans) that would rather b**ch, moan, and argue like little kids rather than have an actual discussion about rugby league.
I have never or would never go into a pub and start a childish little argument (one step away from 'my dad's harder than your dad) with other rugby fans. I expect not many people on this site would do the same in real life. The internet seems to bring out the worst in people and that was my point. It's just annoying have to wade through all the cr*p to find anything interesting about our sport.

At least the cock measuring is starting early. Before a single game has been played. The new season is going to be greeeeeaaaat on here.

Do you see the irony in your post?

Regarding the old age thing, then surely that is a misconception in regards to actually winning trophies?

Especially at a club like Leeds too?

It's fair comment though isn't it? He is a no-mark. He might end up being an above average player (Carmont) but he is still just a random bloke to put into your squad. A bit like Stefan Marsh. Random. Average. A sort of Rugby playing Richard Ashcroft, if you will.

Bit harsh on gelling that.

To the conga-

Poo, poo poo, lets go and do the Gelling
Poo, poo poo, lets do it on the floor

Richard Ashcorft average

now I know this Wire forum is bad but you really do say some rubbish.

No, but we did get £100k plus a player in return for the passed-his-best-limited-shelf-life-damaged-goods Martin Gleeson off a rival team daft enough to fall for it. Nice bit of business that.

Who then went on to win the Super League and helped massively along the way, great deal in my eyes.

Sorry, I meant crap. Could have been something special but fizzled into nothingness after a promising start. The Amos Roberts of the music world.

As for Gelling, rumours are that he's been late for training. If Wane is as hard as Wiganers think he is, I assume he'll be doing laps round Robin Park in his underpants*

*chased by Tomkins.

i went to watch the verve when they were at their peak after the one album they released that people liked.

ashcroft couldn't sing in tune, the band couldn't play properly.... they were all out of sync with each other.... worst concert i have ever seen..... half the crowd did the wigan walk half way through the set..... awful to watch... which was a bit of a let down for me at the time as i quite liked them..... now when someone bigs them up i just have a bit of a chuckle to myself and feel sorry for them.

gelling might end up a brigantes legend, and put stickers up at a ground NEAR YOU SOON.Watch out for morons wearing balaclavas (red and white, of course).Would have posted this on humbles board but they are a bit hypocritical and dont like receiving what they dish out. Typical Wigan, they will never change.

Shi'ts here, shi'ts there

2012 YEAR OF THE WOLVES







Wane wont be putting him in untill he's 100% fit and understands the drills it is looking like goulding will be starting the season for us at centre

This season you will see a different Wigan playing wane's style is quite a bit different than Madges

I'm trying to remember the last time I looked on the Wire board without seeing a 5+ page thread about Wigan.

Bless ya' trying to come up with little rhymes about our players. Really cute.

I'm trying to remember the last time you didn't rise to the bait. Nope, I can't. You always bite every time.

Keep harping on about the "Year of the wolves" bollox. It was funny when we were sh*t. We've won something for 3 years on the bounce. Kinda doesn't work anymore, get some new material. Wank.

Here he is. The guy who said the CC is worthless and not worth winning. Then get's wetdick when Wigan win it.

Telling blokes they're really cute, is a bit worrying sir. Think you've got your message boards mixed up.
