Being streamed live on Wigan tv according to one of todays RL papers, as is the Salford friendly.

Yippee Good News, as I can't make these, at least the club are trying to do something postive.

What was the streaming like v Leigh? or does it depend on your PC / Broadband ?

It was streamed live yesterday.

I don't have ultra fast broadband but it wasn't to bad, of course it will be better with faster speeds, I think it's a good idea which should get better with time, they only have one camera but they did a decent job.. The whole match is now available to watch on Wigan TV, not that it was great game to watch.

Agree, in time the look will become more professional and slick given experience etc...

I thought one or two more senior players may have got a spot. However, it gives the youngsters a go with hopefully Waney as their coach.

Wane needs to have a good look at how a lot of these players cope in tough situations because it's not going to be as easy as watching the under 20's and picking out a replacement should someone get injured like it has been before.

Didn't Wane do exactly the same thing last season and get slagged off for the first team looking under-cooked?

I don't see the point of playing what is virtually an entire reserve strength side. As happened at Leigh unless HKR do the same the team will be on a hiding to nothing and I don't see what good that does anyone including the coach.

Playing alongside some of the experienced players even if only for part of the game would I would think, do the young players more good than turning up to a mismatch (assuming HKR don't play reserves also).
