Spot on. I do agree with Josie in that the defence has been a little lax at times but we know it’s there when needed, in the big games. I can’t lie, I was glad it was a contest last night. I was bored to tears in the cup last week. No game against a team in your league should be that easy, especial...

One thing seems to have been missed in all the analysis - though Josie touched on it by referring to changes in the spine: At any point in the season, we could have enforced changes due to injury. If this means changes to the spine, then Hampshire is first in line to come in. Yet he's had very litt...

I think the cup game gave us fans a false impression. Once the game was gone there they had nothing to play for. They have been far more competitive in the league and even beat Salford in their previous game. A combination of them not being that bad and wholesale changes to the spine gave us what w...

Just got back after a magical mystery tour due to nighttime junction closures on the M6. That’s after being diverted over the Merseyside Gateway on my way to the match as the M56 had a 30minute delay on it :roll: I thought it was a poor performance particularly the first half. I don’t hold with this...

Very lacklustre half from Wigan. Another defensive lapse lef to two.points for Cas on half time.

Need to buck up in the second half.

What a stupid try to give away. Cas git their takes up and a penalty.

No O'Neil or Field in the 17. Bevan at 1 Rocky at 6.

Good performance and the young forwards who came in did well. Agree about the goal kicking. It was a strange decision to nominate Smith as the kicker having signed one with a better percentage. While he improved towards the end of last season he did have some real stinkers goal kicking. Now he is th...

I’d like to think that he will be here for another 4 years but I think it’s with demanding a fee if the NRL come sniffing. I don’t think it is. The same was said with Wardle and Field. I think the club is expecting all three to see their contracts through and it seems as if the club is intent on bu...

One issue I have is the talk of the VR saying yellow and the ref reaching for a red. If that happened it’s not really on at all. Wider than the Saints Wigan game I think there are going to be a lot more players sent off this season than ever before and a lot of those sending offs will be for acciden...
