players who flattered to deceive? : Mon Nov 12, 2018 11:29 pm  
got me thinking, Wigan board had a players who didn't achieve their potential post and got a lot of mentions for likes of ainscough and Pryce... so taking away Karl Pryce for obvious reasons and not as a thread to slate just players who seemed to have a better rep than deserved or player who you felt could have achieved more?

Got to go with the post above. Tame Tupou had it all as we saw at Brisbane too. If ever there was a perfect replacement for Les he was it, didn't he start well enough too 10 try's in 9 games I think.

Another one for me was Shane Rigon, but that was more on the side of only getting 12 months out of him. Quality player

John Woods - Only played with us for a season and a half before we cashed in on him Had a few really good games but I don't think we ever saw the best of him.
Terry Holmes - Blighted by injury but when he was fit he really looked the part, especially at loose forward.
Logan Swann - Came with a big reputation but didn't show much.
Toa Kohe Love - Injured played about 3 times IIRC.

The more he talked of his honour,the faster we counted our spoons.

Re: players who flattered to deceive? : Tue Nov 13, 2018 9:37 am  
Disagree with John Woods as I remember him scoring miraculous tries and breaking goal kicking records.I do,though,wish he had been with us longer.Mercurial imo.

*****Garry Van Bellen*****Thought he was gonna be the next coming.

That game Woods scored 5 tries 8 goals versus Swinton. 36 points. Record stood until this season when Chisholm beat it versus South Wales. I think Woods achievement was better as it was in the top flight then.

While that was a great performance that season was a disaster, we nearly got relegated. We started well the season after but then went on a huge losing run and he was sold to Wire. I think Seabourne signed him with thoughts of him linking up with Hanley but of course Hanley took his bat home :(

Gary Van Bellen was a big nowt really.
