We should kick drop goals in the first half off every game to stop such things happening, It's no rocket science like

One word RUSTY.Very very rusty and the attack can only get better.It might do us a favour but we will see.We definately need to sort out the last tackle attacking kick n chase for sure

I like this lateral thinking approach.

For me, its hanging about with all these "soccer" types, I understand 0-1 is common in that sport?

The old adage applies "lie with dogs and you end up with fleas" :lol:

Yeh rusty clunky same for both teams ,but it annoys me just sticking to the same tactics kicking it up in the air to their winger with no pressure on him ,so predictable so easy for the opposition no plan b,we shouldn't rely on Field and French to win every close game for us.

Stodgy was the word my better half used and you’re both right very poor in attack tonight which should get better but the inevitable backlash from vegas still to come it’s going to be a rough few weeks I fear

Intense game of players and speccies. We'll get over it.

Do we have an attendance?
I’ve not a problem with the result. But I do have a problem with the way we are refereeing the ruck, it is slow and boring. Leigh has signed some good players and they certainly played to their strengths. For Wigan it’s a big wake up call.

Well I just got back and I am in a bad mood given yet again J26 was closed on the M6. I even checked at half time on the highways web site which said J25 was shut, not J26. Four effing years I have had to put up with this shite.

Of course it would not really matter had we won but instead we were treated to a toothless performance that culminated in a great example of zero on field leadership, zero composure and a hail mary kick when a drop goal would have won at the end of normal time. The entire east stand was yelling for one and the only people daft enough not to see it were the players, especially Smith.

Then in extra time we end up down their end again and the ball ends up going left when all they had to do was keep it in the middle for anotner dtop attempt. Absolutely ridiculous.
