It's a fair point you continue to make TrueBlue Warrior. But I think you are missing the point. We had a full strength team at the beginning of the season but we were still sh**e Our attack has been aweful all season just look at our points for. Wane is ruining our great club and must go soon!!

But it's not all bad luck is it?

You say 2 top class backs I'm assuming your including Tomkins in that? Well we knew before we signed him he would be missing most the season, despite this we signed him on the most money in the squad and didn't think that maybe it would be a good idea to sign a 1 yr deal with some decent cover

Mickey Mac - we sold our only other back up hooker so now we have no back up when he is out unless you accept Powell is now a hooker and in that case we are OK in that area according to the club

half back - we have a player who is desperate to play 6 and be given a run and he is playing for another club so we have a junior 2nd row playing at 6 - regardless what you think of Hampshire surely he could have been given a shot before patching up with players who could have their confidence damaged in those places

Wing - well we had 3 good wingers we lost one so we had 2 - expecting them both to stay injury free?

Injuries happen we have about 600 2nd rowers so at lest they can carry on getting injured
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure

Unfortunately TB there is zero acknowledgement / understanding of our situation in terms of game plan / tactics and even with a full squad we would pursue identical tactics / stretegies. Wie were right pre game; we are blindinglyb predictable. Aoron C Rescue sats so are most clubs. Far from it. You can map beforehand who will take the hit up in x position on Y tackle. A clever coach would use that predictability to make Wire think they are seeing the usal Wigan play BUT it becomes a new different play. Whatever happened to chip kicks? whatever happebed to kicking early in sets, whatever happened to kicking direct from scrums. Wane did not even acknowledge how our own stupidity / foul play handed the game to Wire. Wire did not have to beak sweat to beat the boringly predictable badly coached Wigan RLFC.

A point the Wane apologists like to ignore and the truth!

Same old story, no organisation on field, Smith dire, Gregson out of his depth.I do not agree that Tautai was poor,2 of those penalties were harsh and I thought he ran and tackled hard.Burke and Isa add little on the field and Powells passing is shocking at times.Mr Lenagan take a look at these results and fans reactions, at the moment we are an average side.Spend some money or we will continue to slide and perhaps SW has reached his sell by date.

No trophies this year he has to go!!
He won't TB and that is part of the problem. IL and Rads will never sack Wane and there is zero pressure on him.

No we didn't, both Tomkins, Crosby and then Williams 2nd game plus we beat Cats and Hudds which are 2 tough games!

I never said it was bad luck it is just a fact big players are missing, but if they come back and we don't improve then I will be worried, at this moment I will just cling on to the fact we have a full pack and 2 quality backs missing!!

Again like I have always said he would be gone for me but because SL is so poor I hope that with players back we can win something! My love for Wigan and winning trophies far outweighs my dislike for SW!!
