Maybe Keighran should be given kicking duties next year

Smith should be practicing 8 hours a day. It’s not hard to kick goals!

Well that is what happened when I had to miss a home game. Sounded woeful tbh. But the main thing is the win. I feel good that happened. But gosh, I am sooooo weak with this illness.
I have supported Wigan RL since the late 80s. First game was a cup tie v Barrow. Also a fan of football and Speedway. Have a varied taste in music.

Ref was appalling however we had made 7 errors in 14 minutes at the start of the match you can't do that.

Smith is clearly a confidence kicker and had lost it completely by the end of the match but it shouldn't of mattered we bombed 4 or 5 try attempt we would normally get.

Entire team needs to nuckle down for next week as if we put in that performance vs Cats we will get pasted.
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

Before I turned up tonight I was wandering how we would go without Havard, Cooper and Ellis against what's not a bad set of forwards. I didn't think we did to bad in that department.
We do lack leadership or experience in the ball players and it shows. That was a game we could have lost very easily, it was a Wakefield away performance.
That first 5 minutes if Golden point summed us up we made an easy job difficult with lack of control and execution. I sat after the drop goal in disbelief it was easily the hardest kick of the night but only one we got think it summed the performance up.

Lack of experience throughout this whole team and it isn’t really getting any better next year.
