Sports (Talk about balls here.)
roylew, I have to agree with you about SW. Fair enough, he's had to cope with more than his share of injuries to key players, but the whole philosophy at the club is wrong. He prefers players who run at a brick wall and not round it. His game plan is so simple [five drives and a kick] that other teams are now routinely coping with that. Indeed, many teams have moved on from that simple blueprint and brought creativity back to the game. I hate seeing Castleford do well - I have a long memory and "Hepworth" is still a dirty name - but they are brilliant at moving the ball and doing the unexpected. So are Hull. The team I've supported all my life is now playing the most boring, unimaginative rugby I've ever seen from a once-proud club where fast, flowing and creative rugby was a hallmark of the game. Boring and unimaginative - I never thought I'd be using those words to describe Wigan.
