Re: Consistency of officiating

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...

Re: Derby Day!

Playing Saints with a team of 16 players was certainly a daft thing to do. He didn’t use the bench very well at all as Mago and Leeming didn’t get may minutes either it seemed. So hopefully when he mentions we will learn from the game he’s also referring to his own game management. As to Byrne I th...

Re: Derby Day!

Losing the arm wrestle in that second half after the sending off what harm is there giving Nsemba a go? A type of player who can break tackles and change the game…madness not to be used. Considering I’m not his biggest fan I thought Thompson played well, Bryne on the other hand would not make the s...

Re: Derby Day!

It was a great defensive effort today. But like Salford our attack lacks any structure. Bevan is a great individual player as his tries show but he doesn’t bring the best out of the rest of the backs. We struggle to create overlaps and our scrum plays have been poor considering the pace we have. I ...

Re: Derby Day!

I think Field lost his confidence after those two early fumbles and then late in the game didn’t compete and let them score. He is an outstanding attacking player, but his mistakes are too costly and he is becoming a luxury that we can’t afford. Can’t say I’m impressed with our new players. Thompso...

Re: Derby Day!

Can’t blame the ref when you lose if the opposition only scores 12 points. I am not surprised we have lost today given the performances since the WCC which have have been lacklustre. We have been scraping through games and that was the reckoning as Dai put it. On paper we have what looks like the b...

Re: Wigan to face Tigers in Cup Quarter Final

Apparently the draw is a fix because Wigan slipped the RFL a bung or whatever according to Cas fans on Facebook :D

Re: New Deal for Jake Wardle

Gone to the NRL in a year then? There doesn’t seem to have been any talk about him “wanting to test himself in the NRL one day” you see from many players so hopefully he’s going to be like Lockers and is happy to play for Wigan for the duration of his contract. Best centre we have had for years pro...
