Can't argue with that

Although I'm not sure what "intensity" actually refers to, but I'd suggest that having competition for places is a big part of effort and enthusiasm in training.
Shaun Wane has the option to drop anyone - we don't. Clubb and Sarginson are fringe players at Wigan, and they have Welsh internationals on loan. He can also cover injuries in a way we can't.
It would be interesting to see if Michael McGuire or Des Hasler could create a culture of intensity in London, and maintain a competitive team. Maybe if I win Euromillions tonight we'll find out.

Suspect that the number and experience of coaching and fitness staff at Wigan is much higher than ours. If so, has to make a difference.

Totally different culture there, former players live in the area and attend games, they reminise about the past as do supporters who meet up socially. schools play the game, there are amateur teams and clubs, sports and social clubs who support the club.. The club is woven into the fabric of the community. Totally different culture. Large squad, more staff, better wages higher motivated players, more proffessional set up and not run like a millitary junta by one bloke.
I'm sure London can one day aspire to be like this or something similar. One day there will be standing room only and a trip to see London Broncos will be the " hottest ticket in town".
