Plus at least 3 international games for Wales in a 4 Nation competition with Ireland, Scotland and France which starts this weekend.
3 international games, 10 league games and the world club challenge game in australia. Probably closer to 14 games. Also best to remember in super league there are only 27 games. 10 games is pushing half the regular season.
World club challenge games are being played in England next February. Six teams are involved with 3 from each country.Wish it was in Aus!!
Should have put with haha. Just watched the documentary from wigans time over there last year. Looks amazing.
23 games in the first part of the season next year. I also think he more than likely would have captained Wales for the first time in the autumn, plus he's missed pretty much a full game already. It's about right to be honest, his record before this is clean since 2011 so if it was someone with a terrible record I would have argued for a stricter punishment. Plus both him and the club seem genuinely sorry for what's happened and have apologized several times to virtually everyone you can think of.
Met up with some Wigan fans pre and at the match and it was fun. Support all English clubs and England/ Great Britain when they come out here. Will be at the Aus v Eng 4 nations game in Melbourne.
The first part of the season is 23 (12 teams - each one home and away + magic) then the second part with the Super 8s is 7 (3 or 4 home games and the reverse away) and then a max of 2 play off games. He'll miss a third of the first two parts of the regular season, the World Club Series game and the opportunity to more than likely captain his country. It will also be difficult for him to get his match fitness back depending what's happening with Duel Reg next year and the strength in depth and production line that Wigan have got.
He hasn't apologised to me and I find that totally unacceptable. I'd say he should be hanged but we don't do that in this country anymore.
Never mind worrying about the Death penalty. That may well be about to change. Media reports are the police are investigating ppl making death threats on account of that punch. Careful what you wish for. It aint over for him yet.
Was amazed when he had a second go at him with a punch. 1st one emotion adrenelin maybe 2nd one he knew what he was doing. Long ban should have been awarded to him.
