This is the key point and illustrates why Watson is a good coach and Lam isn’t. Watson worked out what Wigan were doing and fixed it. Wigan just kept doing the same thing despite the obviously fact it was no longer working.

Lam should have not only anticipated a reaction from Watson but should have had alternative tactics ready to be deployed by simply sending a message out to the players. The plan B.

Instead we just carried on the same way when it wasn’t working. 40 minutes of not having a clue how to change things around. Useless.
Gregory and Edwards wouldn't have needed a coach to tell them, their rugby brains would have worked it out. Collectively, it was a very poor second half performance. The tackling around the ruck was abysmal but it is so easy to fix. Wigan are renowned for being the best and getting the best, IFL may need to consider the appointment of a new coach for next season if the club is to move forward. There are plenty in Australia who would make a big difference. One thing I can't work out, Lam has obviously got a lot of contacts in the southern hemisphere but we have not recruited any good overseas players from those shores, why?

Sorry but I have to disagree on the signings. That’s one thing I think he has got right, maybe one short but good signings.
