Maguire came from the Storm, who under Bellamy took wrestling and similar to whole new levels. The other teams and coaches mentioned are amateurs by comparison.

Yes but surely it must be Wigan's fault?

Didn't Craig Bellamy once play for Wigan? Coach them? Visit Wigan once?

Come on, didn't you know that Wigan are the only team in the world who play dirty?

You're not serious are you?

Just heard that Flower minutes prior to kick off, was boxer punching the padding on the goal posts as though something was on his agenda, did anybody see or can confirm this.

Mid-season that would have taken him out of at least 14 games if not more, with cup games etc. Reducing to to 10 is pretty weak from the RFU.
