Getting Better

For what it is worth I think he is a troll. He only ever comes here after a defeat and slags our team / posters off.

Cherry coloured spectacles. When you have a moment maybe you could come up with a new phrase. Starting to lose count of the times I have read this particular one in your posts.

I've never said cherry coloured specticles before..that was my first.

Gilmore should have done better in the opening moments of the first half and Scullys poor knock on then there was Dallas scoring off a forward pass.
There you have it...Saints should have trebled your score.

IF you draw your conclusions from ifs and buts you will need to include the decision by Kline to play on following an obvious knock on. You will also want to include the bombed try by Dallas because of the pass by Dobson just been too high and the missed oppertunity when Wigan should of done better by backing up Pat Richards Knock Down. The two gifted trys that Saints scored without which there score of 4 trys to our three looks pathetic agains a bottom of the table club.

Thanks Mike for you I guess thats some kind words on my behalf.

Look you pie lovers....
Some of my comments might seem like a splinter under your finger nails, but the harsh reality of it, is that you are under the quash.

Dobson is a kid (happy birthday) who although is a good aquisition is no magic wand.

Playing Saints is not really a good yard stick to gauge any improvement in Wigan but what I did see against Saints tells me you are marginally better in attack with Dobson than Moran and his defence seems as good as Moran's at this stage.

That does argue for better performancies overall, but Saints still got beat by Hudderfield and should have been beaten by Warrington on their own ground too in recent weeks so their form is suspect.

The four teams that you have a hope to catch...
OK lets break it down.

Wigan(4 points)
I see that there could be enough improvement for you to win 5 possibly 6 max at further improvement from all your remaining fixtures.
(14/16)max

(1)
Quins(9 points)
McLindon is returning so I think they will improve a great deal!
Under previous form there are 3 games not including Wigan v Harlequins(home/away) that the Quins should be nailed-on to win but I think they have a good chance of winning 5 that'll give them 15/19 points.
15 points means if you beat them home and away, with the further improvement to win 6, you'll stay up on merit. Your best hope is that Salford beat them.
(15/19max)

(2)
Reds(10 points)
They have a chance of winning 5 games not including v's Wigan although I think that they may only win 2 if they get beat tonight...which will give them 14 points and you could, with the further improvement needeed to win 6 games, beat them. But should they beat Harlequins then their old form will have returned and will be a top six contender.
(14/20max)

(3)
Wildcats(10 points)
They have a good chance of winning 2 of their remaining games but no more than 3, that will put them on 14/16max not including the games v's Wigan
(14/16max)

(4)
Tigers(10 points)
Like Wakefield, they have a good chance of winning 2 of their remaining games but no more than 3, that will put them on 14/16max but unlike the above teams Castleford control their own fate as you don't have a remaining fixture against them.
(14/16max)

There are lots of variables still at this stage but one thing is for sure..you cannot afford to drop a single point against the above rivals.
Lose any game at any stage and you will be relegated with almost a month of the season remaining.

Sorry to be there bearer of the grim outlook once again but thats what a reality check is!!
