He has been exploiting quick play of the balls and making great yards. He’s causing us lots of problems.
It’s just Baz and Tez I’m getting at really, loving leeming is just part of it.

If only we had a hooker capable of doing the same thing

Field French combo anyone😀
Not sure how it fits.

I don’t see either being able to play 6. Both players advertise their passing which you get away with at fullback but not as a half.

Only way to have any chance of making it work is with Cust as first receiver all of the time.

Don’t get me wrong I hope it can happen as both players are electric I just don’t see it working across a season and in difficult games with one of those in the halves.

Good problem to have though.

That first 15 mins from us was poor. Trying to play basketball in our own 22 and giving penalties away. Looked much better in the last 15. Great try on half time.

I have to say I’m enjoying this Wigan team more than the whole of last season under Lam.
We look more up for it and the team are working really hard.
It’s like they gave up on Lam last season

Still more to come as well because we’ve been conceding a lot of penalties and giving cheap ball away.

Also bold from Peet to go KPP at centre, Hardaker on the wing etc.

He clearly has a vision and isn’t taking easy choices.

Your spot on. We’ve gave some bad penalties away, invited pressure and made a couple of bad errors. Cut them out we will go a lot better.
I like that about Peet he’s willing to try things. It will be interesting what he will do when French is fit

To be fair they give the same excitement for KPP every single run.

Exactly. Neither of them can or will play 6.

One of the two will move to the wing when they’re both fit (in place of Hardaker who will probably go to centre) where this leaves Miski who knows.
