I'm starting to have doubts about Peet. I think he needs to go.

Also, Harry Smith is awful. He makes Denis Moran, Doc Murray and Marc Reber look good.

Oh....and Rads is poop too.


BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

French couldn't shine Greg Florimo's boots.

Granted my post was sarcastic, but that name still makes me shiver

Fair to say KPP deserves some credit tonight?

I’m a big fan and have always seen the potential upside but I have no issue with people questioning him, if he can play like he did tonight and add his offloading he can go to the top no doubt.

Full admission, I'd never heard of Greg Florimo. I don't have the historical knowledge of some of you guys. But Wiki tells me he played 20 games in 1999. I thought I watched just about all of the Wigan TV archive over lockdown (expect I wasn't the only one! ), but still don't recall him. Perhaps I should check back...

I have no issue with people questioning any player but it’s noticeable that some people prefer criticism over praise.

His potential has always been clear to see.

I thought Smithies had a good game and showed decent pace in the open, his first break he showed some wheels and did Dufty around the outside and had nobody else been there he would have scored, even though that came to nothing it was actually a big moment in the game imo as it broke Warrington opening dominance and put us on the front foot for the first time in the game.

He’s obviously not hugely quick Smithies but he’s playing great at the minute. He is really developing his link play in the middle and he’s added more punch to his running game. If he had an ex teammate banging his drum in the media, I reckon he’d be getting rave reviews across the board but not all players are as lucky.

I wouldn't if I was you.

Him and Marc Reber were sold as the next Edwards and Gregory. They weren't even the next Hale and Pace (somethirn neither of them had)

I disagree with KPP. He’s deserved the criticism that has come his way and tonight only highlights why. Where has that hunger and aggression been for the last two years? He was absolutely outstanding and long may it continue. I thought it was noticeable that Peet said his time off had got him excited about the game again. That seemed a back handed compliment, as though he was saying his motivation levels maybe haven’t been quite where they should be previously. What he has done tonight is get me excited that he can end his spell here on a real high and that would be pleasing. Nobody doubts his talent for me.

Agree.

If he plays like that for the rest of the season he leaves with good wishes.
