No, compare the precious MM who was back to his mediocre self tonight, Powell has nothing to prove, he did that all last season and in the GF and the WCC

Can Gildart actually pass to his winger. Burgess sees less of the ball than anyone else at the club. Young he maybe but he seems never to pass the ball.

Based on what? Luck that they end up with half a team missing before the final?

Hull (unlike Cas who they beat on the way) have shown they know how to beat teams. They change their game accordingly. Their coach has Wane's number.

Wigan will have to play far better than they have all season to win and if they do, I defy anyone to be remotely serious in suggesting it was all building to this.

Hull have a better pack, better backs, better half backs and a better coach.
Yes they have Wigan's number!

Our centres last night were poor, Gelling awful in every sense and Gildart does not pass the ball.Mcguire totally outplayed Williams who is so overrated its not true.Lockers, Farrell and Bateman outplayed by their Leeds counterparts.Shocking display and Wane seems lost.

That's the season then.

The worrying thing here, and it is VERY worrying is that the standard of Superleague has plummetted.

The Leeds team of 5 years ago would have put 50 on the current Leeds team.

Wigan are very poor in a very poor competition. With the talent pool available to us, we should not be.

Admittedly the short arms/long pockets of our chairman compared to other chairmen doesn't help.
