It's amusing to see people suggest his career will automatically go downhill now he has left Wigan. Perhaps he should've stayed and seen his career go on an upward curve, like Ben Flower for example.

I'm delighted this guy has signed for us. Unfortunately u guys could mould him into the robot your team requires, but hopefully with a new environment and coach he can start to fulfil his potential. Not fussed about length of contract, am only bothered about next season

I hope he fulfils his potential and becomes the international prop he should.


So far all we have heard on here is that his partner wanted to move back home but who knows? Perhaps its not so black and white (pardon the pun!).

Life is not always straight forward and the influence of family can be huge.

Good luck to him.

Sorry Stanley for being a bit dim, but who is this new coach you are referring to?

And once next season has gone you can go out and sign another team and then another and another and so on.
Eventually your 50 season ticket holders might get a game you never know

Yeah and it might just improve the game while we're at it, instead of the same old same old predictable results. That's why new fans arn't bothered because they want to see a a competitive league not a closed shop as it's been for 17 years.

You are not wrong there! 2004 to 2008 were quite interesting as a Wigan fan with the threat of relegation, the heaviest defeats in the clubs history, going against the spirit of the cap and finishing in 6th-8th in the league and making it to the GF semis.

and if I'm not wrong your fans were the best they've ever been in that period, it's the uncertainty of a result that gets people off their armchairs and to games.

It might improve the game for Salford but not the game in general and definitely won't improve Salford long term

Charnley, while a good winger is a million miles behind Hall. From what I saw last year I'd have had Burgess in front of him.


Going off the NZ game:
Hall had the best centre in the tournament inside of him who gifted him a score, he still managed to bomb an easy finish and fumble for Nightingale's first.
I like Watkins but he is a winger's nightmare- the only ball Josh had was the cut-out pass from S'OL for the try and another from JT where he skinned Vatuvei but slipped near the FB. Manu's try came as a result of (Watkins?) getting blocked and leaving a two vs two, quite similar to Widdop running out of the line for Nightingale's second, although Hall did have enough cover not to come out.
Overall I thought Josh had much more of a threat to deal with and did much better.

Hall's a fantastic finisher with an unbelievable physique for returning the ball... but his defence isn't as good as Josh's and he doesn't score as many tries- so I'm really struggling with the "million miles" bit.
Also:
Hall isn't as fast.
Hall has less tattoos.
Hall has only slightly ridiculous hair.

But above all they're both stunning players and easily the best two for England. (And there is no way on earth Burgess was going to play in that game, look at what Manu did to the young Aussie in the final. Scary.)
