there's plenty of 'major differences' if you know what to look for.

I honestly do not know what is happening. I am trying to find out if the rumours are true (my guess is most are absurd).

I am beginning to think it is part of what seems to be ingrained in the modern British sportsman/woman. In terms of RL; many, the majority of players are often lacking intelligence and away from RL are miscreants or social misfits. Hence, they are incredibly difficult to manage particularly as they age and they often stagnate or regress in player development. You know better than most how important attitude / desire are in this game / any game. Yes you need technique and a rugby brain but defence even attack is about putting your body on the line. Maybe British people are now fairly gutless You see the reaction online, the desire to blame anything / everything. Sport reflects society I guess.

I was told before the Cats game, Mossop needs to have surgery on his shoulder. Personally, I think Davies should be used more and given a chance. I may be wrong but the players seem to have been conditioned differently this season, they are not unfit but more for the long haul so they peak at the CC, Play Offs (You still have to make them though ) You see how strong the players finish games but are quite dull at the start. People are blaming the Aussies etc but Wigan's worrying home form started last season and continues so the let's blame Finch campaign is stupid. We Brits love to blame somebody.

I am hoping and thinking the injuries, new players, pressure on Wigan re rules, different fitness regime, crowd (people talk about fabulous Brit support but it works both ways, very quick to turn)

Wigan / the rest of SL are showing IMO why we fail interntionally. No disrespect and he is a fabulous professional but when Beaver looks better than your whole forward pack then that says so much. Dureau is looking like Andrew Johns and whilst he had the odd fab game in Aus, Dureau is not Joey and had some nightmare games too. Wigan / Warrington supposedly our best teams both struggling. Saints better with youngsters (far less brainwashed). Just one thought Hudds went off the boil when Brown said he was going back to Aus, maybe there is some truth in terms of unrest re Madge to the Rabbits.

We Brits are embarassingly fickle

The let's hate/blame Finch campaign must be the answer then
