I'm not sure that is our current plan.
It has been for a long time
So your saying that we played a game plan of one up hits followed by a kick in - lets say - Vegas? One of the most exciting attacking displays I've ever seen? Or against Hull FC when we put 30 odd on them in the first half?
We only throw the ball about and try out set moved once we are comfortable.Thats how we have played for a few years now

I'm talking very generally. Vegas was a massive one off. That first hour was as good as we've played for a long long time. Our game plan seems to be four hit ups followed by a kick and turn the game into an arm wrestle. If we get into good positions we do throw it wide, but generally we tend to play safe. It's been the plan for a while. It's worked most of the time, don't get me wrong, but we've struggled this season to make the yards. With Thompson out we will struggle further. I expect 2 starting props and 3 on the bench with Walters, Hill, Byrne, Dupree and Mago. All 5 need big games to get us a foothold in the game.
I haven't seen much one up rugby for the last 2 years, yes on occasions to settle a game we have done but if anything the issue this season is Wigan have been to loose with the ball making the additional pass we didn't need to.
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.
