Baz or Tez just said:

“Lots of movement at dummy half (agree), Sam Powell is a master of his craft.

What does that bit really mean? What’s he implying?

I fear Baz and Tez just say things because obvious and right in front of them

Bibby has bulked up. A try, converted by us? What's going on :P

Very enthusiastic attacking approach so far, looking very fit and fresh overall! Deserved lead!

Healthy scooting from Powell and good running from Leuluai!

And a conversion! 😆

Interesting they’ve not put Bibby on the wing the replace Thornley and gone with Hardaker and KPP as centres.

Instead it’s
Hardaker, KPP, Bibby, Marshall

Obviously the refs like some wigan fans are out for Powell this year. High shot my backside.
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

Intelligent play by Lewis or really poor defence there?

Overall, I approve of our line speed and defence so far.

Sick of Baz and Tez commentary. No knowledge or experience just making stuff up.

Our high tackle then was “uncharacteristic”. Was it? Was just an average high tackle that sometimes happens in a scramble.

Why is Hardaker on the bench an eye raiser ?

He’s been injured and hasn’t played a pre season game.

KPP starting means he can eventually move to second row.
