Wire now top of the table again,looking down on the rest.


Jog on Troll Boy.
I'm sure the Wolfs would have had the same result against the Goons without; Morley, Wood, Briers, Myler, and Harrison and then losing Hodgson and Bridge before half-time.

In work today it hit me we (Wigan) were in a similar position against Leeds 3 weeks ago. Looking likely to score a try in the final few seconds. Danny Buderus deliberatley gave a penalty on the tryline knowing that it would force Wigan into taking the draw. Do you think that a saints player especially on the last Mossop tackle should have given the 2 points rather than give the game away.

As a Wigan fan I'd just like to congratulate your team and fans for playing their part in a superb derby yesterday.

Saints fans should be proud of their team as even though they were injury hit they still managed to push us all the way and bar for a piece of magic by Deacs at the end would have took both points.

Fantastic advert for the sport where both teams were fully committed without resorting to dirty tactics and played some really entertaining footy for a full house at DW and tv viewers at home.

Yesterday proved why Wigan - Saints is rugby leagues true derby game.


Well said mate.

A great game between two very good teams.

Friday was the first time I've left a stadium after a loss and not been disappointed. Great effort, and a great atmosphere in our stand, made me proud to be a Saints fan.

Re: Great effort : Sun Apr 24, 2011 2:03 pm  
A great game in which lack of men and inexperience cost us. Losing two men playing in that heat always meant that we were going to be running on empty at the end, which we were as the defence showed.

Not many teams would have gone into a game with Wigan at the Pie Dome with their first three choice half backs missing, then lose their fourth choice half back before half time, and still come within 30 seconds of a win. Our young players made mistakes, the Lomax kick through at the end was an error, but it's the kind of mistake that you must accept that a young player will make in his development. If he's any good he'll learn from it.

We will take more positives from that game than Wigan will.
