All points I noticed during the game and totally agree with. Is Tommy fit? Rarely ran from dummy half and our attack looked the poorer for it.
One point also not mentioned was the number of passes Wigan actually threw that went to ground (irrespective of retaining possession) this also slowed Wigan's attacks down immensely .
When our forwards don't dominate then the rest haven't got any room to work, in the two previous encounters with Wire & Saints we dominated up front, Sam then had room to play, so get off his back, its a team game, which pivots around the forwards... they have a bad we all have a bad day.
