I think TS needs a kick up the "£$%$£



We all knew this team was held together by Lee Briers with 12 hangers on

Well there were lots of problems with individual players tonight; Laithwaite mis-timing his runs, double error by Grix, Riley losing the ball and poor play the ball technique etc etc, but if you look at the broader problems it is a lack of attacking ability and poor kicking. After a run of 6 games it looks to me that GOB is not going to provide the spark at half back, or the much needed field kicking. Unfortunately, I didn't see one threatening attack from Wire and that seems to have been a problem all season so far. I am sure we will do reasonably well over the season as a whole, but we are not going to be top 4 or win anything until TS 'fixes' the half back problem.



Oh, and Roy Asotasi looks to have been a waste of money as well - he is performing as an interchange prop.

Exactly as he did at Souths last season - past his best

That was a poor game contested by two average sides.



Wigan were awful.



We were truly horrendously terrible beyond anything you could imagine with the players we have. You could have picked a randomly selected team with players from every Championship club who'd never played together before and they would have worked out better plays causing Wigan more problems than we did tonight.



Just appalling.



Wigan were awful too, they were better than us, but I wouldn't be getting excited if I was a Pie. Average at best is what I'd describe them. But us...Christ on a bike. It was like they were all offered a million pound to throw the game.

I hope Tony remembers he's a rugby league coach paid to win things and not a social worker! I have heard we have got Clark for next season and we better have TWO halves to come in! This season is gone! Also about time people stopped mocking padders as despite having all the natural ability in the world bridge is utterly braindead and beyond frustrating. Would not be a centre in another top six side

We played one man rugby.

We don't have set play to deal with poor conditions.



Wigan did have and were threats every time.



We had no one and no idea how to break them down.

I think if you were to put your finger on one main problem aside from creativity it's is a real lack of any pace.

Wood Harrison and Currie, and for some unknown reason the two Evans' who are better players than some who were selected to play tonight weren't there.

i wonder if we said that after you beat us? Awful how so? scored break away trys, broke tackles, played around the outside of you, kicking game was class and defence was to shabby either. Just because your team can't kick to save its life or put on a decent set play doesn't mean your defence is terrible, which it isn't. Also did you see the weather its hardly going to low error count either.



Seems some Wire fans are trying consolidate them selves by making out Wigan played poorly which they didn't even with O'loughlin and McIlorum out.

Will offer a bit of starch to the forwards. Always impressed with Harrison when i have seen him, hits hard and is hard to stop.

Dubairl - Wigan were ok but you can't honestly be pleased with that surely?

If that was the case, why did it take Lee Briers a decade to win a trophy with the club?



You are certainly looking a bit rudderless without Briers but its very early for knee jerk reactions.I thought Matty Russell looked very good when he came on and maybe having him as the starting full back and Ratchford in the halves will be the answer.Eventually you will find the right formula and come the end of the year still be in the mix.
