Centres we need proper centres not wingers - not second row - I hope kris radlinski reads this I hope he realises he’s a moron! And he needs to understand we need centres!!!!!

Also powell - yeah I know “he’s a great guy” “coaches must see something” “oh we’ve heard it all before” ok

At 35/6 mins incase you want to fact check please see below the images - we were on Leeds line starting the 2nd tackle and the images below are how the receivers of passes from Powell had to receive the ball this isn’t over the match this is 3 back to back passes


Pass 1

Pass 2

Pass 3

I doubt roby throws that many bad passes all season
Be careful WiganForever.
You’ll be accused of bullying when your judging Powells ability as a player
Oh I know I’ll get told I’m a bully or I have a personal vendetta or change the record but hey if anyone can look at those pics 3 passes back to back that are awful when we are in a attacking position and say that’s good enough well then I guess we have different ideas of what is good enough
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure

That was rubbish. I can accept an off day in attack, but the defense was abysmal. Pete's got to earn his wages this week. He cant let a team get so complacent after a big win. He's got to turn that around and very soon.

Oh well annoyance over with,it may do the side more good than harm long term but unacceptable and mustn’t happen again,Peet has to show his mettle and knock some heads together.

Where did that come from?

Dog Shite, straight from the Lam playbook....zero game management.

OK, please, refs out there surely "that" try is a non try - running into the man playing the ball is offside? OK not relevant to the score but thats v. poor, again.

Things I noticed - a makeshift hooker outplayed our lad, makeshift halbacks outplayed our lads. Shorrocks and PArto ineffective.

There should of not been any complacentcy from last week, we played a extremely weekend Hull.

It's only a concern if it can't be fixed though.
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

Ha! And, I guess, no surprises there. But of course, a poor performance all round, too many handling errors, the passes didn't stick, Cust didn't look right, Field was snuffed out fairly effectively, Cooper made some clumsy errors early doors, but we'll forgive him for that, and so on. A bad day at the office, and I trust Peet to put it right. We are still on track.
It’s no surprise there are more comments because this was in Sky and the Hull game wasn’t so more people saw it to pass comment. So no, no surprise at all :roll:

I agree. A test for his coaching. I have seen coaches react two ways to defeats like this. One, say it was out of characters and more or less the same side the week after giving the chance to redeem himself and two, drop players and make changes. I hope I see latter next week. Halsall needs to come in for Isa at centre is one obvious change I don’t think would be controversial.

He wasn’t much better last week against Hull. He was back to doing his stupid double movement thing with the ball where he motions to pass, doesn’t, then passes. Drives me mad as all it does is slow down the delivery.

I think Halsall is a must but aside from Mago returning I don’t see where the other changes are coming from.
