Eee..Still sat here with big grins on our faces so what to take away from that King is getting better each game good to see,Ellis was very good too,Shorrocks was everywhere,can't really complain about anyone at all today


Cooper is a worry not seen it back yet but he's tough one and to see him hobble off is concerning

We are a far more balanced team when French is not on the wing. Miski, King, Wardle and Marshall give us more yardage when returning kicks which puts us on the front foot. Bevan is more easily contained and therefore we have difficulty getting out of our own half. It reminds me of the days when we had Charnley, Gelling, Sarginson and Burgess.

Miski hasn't let us down despite the one error. Marshy has been great. King's best game for us. And on and on. Smithies phenomenal.
It’s interesting that Morley, I thought Marshy was poor in the first half. He had a couple of opportunities to burn Saints on the outside but took neither. However, he was much improved in the second half and his tackle on Hurrell was worth the entrance money alone.

Only just watched it due to work.

Excellent entertainment in a great atmosphere - only add that the Wife and the Dog are both not talking to me due to my shouting and yelling :twisted:

I noticed Marshy for the hard yards he made at times, some great work in defence including contribution to stopping a try, enthusiasm, willingness to get stuck in. Could say the same from 1 to 17, but he just seemed to be buzzing around and popping up everywhere at crucial times.
I guess, in some ways we all see a different game, though we all seem agreed that it was an extremely good 'un today :D

Hard to find fault at all today, even if we had lost I'd have been happy with the effort.

Smith, MotM again for me, additionally his defence was very good.
Wardle and King chipped in with tries, great yards and destructive defence.
Shorrocks went well, accurate passing and a good long kicking game plus some extra efforts that Wigan fans love.
Miski and KPP had their best games for Wigan.

Should we be saying that Morgan Knowles is the poundland Morgan Smithies :lol: :D
