I dont know whether it would be worthwhile for SL too get too the two ref's they have in australia, it certainly makes the game more fluent.

<r>Imo it was expected that whoever won the semi-final last week would lose this week. Tony Smith almost confirmed that by playing the side he did (not taking anything away from us though.)<br/> <br/> However i do think Feka did not deserve man of the match,He gave a few good offloads but yet again ...

I hope they dont renew his contract through, he is a good player. But he has had four seasone in a wigan shirt too shed weight and as far as i can see he has put more on. As soon as teams start closing him down, he shy's out the game imo.

perhaps someone with more experience and who can settle the side down. Which is what we need imo.

I was only saying, that the problem with prescott is that he drops that ball far too frequently, and teams have and will punish us for it, he does it week in week out.

This needs too be identified by the coaches and worked upon.

<r>Possibly, or dare i say it a new coach, Brian Noble's tactics with wigan are the same as what they were with Bradford, play for field position and when the opportunity arises (when we are in the oppositions half/twenty) use some good ball plays and some decent sized players too barge over.<br/> <...
