Wigan vs Hull

[widdenoldboy]

Wow, must be a bit of tiredness from Vegas and some poor decisions on both sides of the white line?

Certainly we could have moved players around differently but theres no guarantee it would have worked out better but maybe worth a shot with Ecky at FB, push Keighran to wing leaving French at half.


I'll add another point, we didn't get anything from Mago/Forber again - I'd like to see Forber taking the line on now and again - scooting off Mago when they had a man in the bin should have been tried?

Peet has a lot to answer for never mind the players. Ridiculous coaching with shuffling by everyone all over the place and pretty arrogant to be honest.

Eckersley should’ve been at 1, you keep French and Smith at 6 and 7 and then have a forward play centre to take Kieghran off and we don’t lose any structure. Absolutely livid with that.

I said exactly the same at the game. The coaching team made some poor decisions but I think they have enough credit in the bank to be forgiven. Las Vegas took the energy out of our legs, it doesn’t look such a good decision now. Having said that I need to credit Hull they knew we were busted and time and again they exploited our frailties. I have no complaints with the result, Hull were great in the second 40, we need to be a whole lot better.

Awful, didn’t deserve to win. Someone needs to teach our wingers to defend their wings, they are stood in field far too often. Sezer threw the same pass 3 times and they scored each time, why don’t we learn!!

We definitely didn’t fix up the problem which is very un-Wigan like.

The team who wanted it most won

I agree

The players switched off after 30 min and it cost the game. Should have been done and dusted after an hour. Smith throwing the wild speculator which led to the second half try showed for me that they treated it as a walk over SL game.

Grand final that pass never gets attempted you would just build up pressure and try for a repeat set

Our lads had nothing in their legs. AK should not have been on the pitch in the second half he was a passenger due to his injury.

I hope that that was the vegas hangover

I think it was.

Oh well can't win em all,terrible second half,not the same team without Jay still save me a few bob on Wembley tickets.

It’s not a question of losing but a question of how you lose.

I'd say that's spot on.

So who goes on the wing?

It doesn’t matter as long as they are fit. Faz is not the answer at centre.

Moving Bevan to fullback killed our momentum , better to have Hull defending him . Instead we are on the back foot . Zak to 1 leave Keiran on, less exposed if we are their half

Bevan was too deep with his pace he should have been playing 15 yards further forward. No way that Seizer tries that kick over the top if he is.

Neither Forber or Mago were on the field long enough.

Agree, but we put Marshall on our right for the last try and he did the same as Ecky.
