I agree pal but maguire and lowes structure was about total team playCaboosegg wrote: ↑Sun Jul 31, 2022 7:22 pmMaguire was the king of structure........Firestarter wrote: ↑Sun Jul 31, 2022 7:11 pm I think in all honesty wigan have always relied on individuals to win games for some time….. we are a structured team with onlya few allowed to express themselves……. This is why players like powell and isa are vital as they do the boring stuff that doesnt get the crowd excited……. I only saw two coaches that got us slightly away from this and that was maguire and lowe……once cust and faz gwt back too form , along with battys reurn( and possibly tommy) im sure we will be fine

Re: ARE WE WORRIED
When are Thornley, Tommy and Bateman due back?
I think we need to focus on getting second, rotate the squad a bit, give some players who may have some smaller injuries a rest then start to build momentum into the play offs.

Re: ARE WE WORRIED
We do have the players to do better up the middle, and, frankly, we need to. Now that Paddy Mago has scored his first try, he may get a taste for it, which has to be good. As Mat Peet says; with his size, strength and footwork he should be able to. I'm looking forward to it. Kaide Ellis needs to do more. A friend of mine used the phrase 'flat track bullies', which is what the Aussie cricketers called Graham Hick. That is, he was very good on easy wickets and against easy teams but struggled when a bit of dog was needed. I hope Wigan aren't like that, but they need to beat Saints, Catalans, Giants etc before that's certain.
