Looks like Wigan want to emulate that Leeds team who just seemed to be the same each year. Problem is or the worry is if form drops and we are stuck… should always be looking to compete for places and having that incentive to do better. Although I’d gladly have a 7 year contract and sit on the benc...

Surely the rule is in place to prevent this type of scenario?

Otherwise, what is the point of the rule?

Second row absolutely needs to be the focus and ideally replacing Isa. But does that happen with someone aged 27-32 for experience or do we go with someone younger? Farrell isn’t the same player but absolutely worthy of a squad position but may find himself not starting as often next year. Hopefully...

He was excellent friday and ide be tempted play him 13 tomorrow and have leeming at 9.Think it gives us more options and im sure he will be as good in the backrow as newton used to be when switched Did this used to happen? I only started watching in Wigan from 1998 so it may have proceeded that or ...

Like it or not Oneill learnt an awful lot from Powell defensively ,on Friday when he was defending you could see what he’s learnt in defence the big differences of course is his attacking game it’s getting better each game to the point you wonder if Leeming was such a good buy as the lad can stay o...

Yellow card was fair enough but the red card killed us but is unfortunately the rules now and is going to ruin so many games. Absolutely criminal to have unused substitutes and worrying that we look so clueless in a...

Were there any incidents at Wigan?

I seem to recall something with Hastings influencing Jai Field but cannot remember the specifics.

He always seemed obsessed with being a superstar which in itself isnt a bad thing but it seemed to focus most around the glitz and glam rather than the achievement. I think this is why he loved Salford so much because he was treated like a god by their fans but when he came to Wigan we had seen peo...

Glad we have Nsemba back and ready to cement his place in the 13 as Willie Isa just doesn’t get through enough work in attack.

7 runs for 27m is rather shocking. Especially when you see that Farrell did 17 runs for 121m.
