Great performance. Feels like there is more to come. Coming good at the business end. Shame Saints and Hull KR won but we can't have everything.
Quick point, that was Marshall's 151st Wigan try. The same thing happened with his 100th, his 101st was proclaimed his 100th. What is the try he scored that everyone seems to forget?

A great game from the whole team/squad.
Paddy and Byrne who played few or no minutes last week played for long periods tonight.
See MP chose not to put Thompson back on. What options the coach has!
The forwards won it but the backs are sublime at times.
Now looking a lot better with a pack dominant and our halfbacks back together and playing so well.
Things are looking very good for us.
I thought Leeds could have been a game where we slipped up but they couldn't live with us first 20 mins.
Brad Arthur summed it up "We were well beaten, they were better than us 1-17."
A great win. Well done all, players and coaching staff.

Maybe the coaching and conditioning staff know something about loading the players to peak at the right times??? Great job tonight.

was so nice not to have any daft head contact issues tonight and a decent clean game overall. Far better to watch.

Agreed. I thought our discipline was very good tonight, and I can only echo what other posters said. Byrne was good, and his performance gave me further faith in the coaching team. Mago too, although not quite having the amazing impact of the Hull KR game, was effective. French and Field are always a threat, and the sublime Jake Wardle continues to impress. I thought Miski wasn't far off MotM tonight; he put a hell of a shift in.

Well somehow I managed to record the game & am just watching it back!
I always have a little bet on the game. Today I backed Jai Field & Bevan French to score anytime @ 10/1 sadly Jai let me down.
I had another bet Jai Field, Jake Wardle, Bevan French, Liam Marshall & Abbas Miski all to score, £5 @ 80/1
Only bet that won was Kaide Ellis anytime try. @ 11/2
