It's hardly suicide when your coach refuses to play him because he wants to leave for personal reasons. More like career assassination I'd have said but who'd expect anything else from wane?

What a ridiculous post. If you are picking a team, why pick someone who wants away, if you've got other lads who are desperate to play?

Why blame Shaun Wane? And as for career assassination, don't make me laugh. He was plucked from obscurity by SW and given his chance to play for the greatest team in the country. He then proceeds to chuck it back in Wane's face.

Shaun Wane made him into the player he is - a dammed good prop.

I didn't know there was a scale. I thought you either were or weren't. Just like in your case with stupidity.

But Richards had completely fulfilled his contract and was at the veteran stage anyway, and in the case of Mossop and Tomkins weren't their situations settled by the players' new clubs paying transfer fees? In which case, in all three instances the departures were resolved in gentlemanly fashion and the players saw out what remained of their curtailed contracts to Wigan's satisfaction.

The story with Taylor appears to be different. The club he wants to go to weren't prepared to buy him out of his contract and just wanted him on a free - and when Wigan said no, the player's reaction seemed to be to sulk.

I think those situations are very different indeed.
