Williams was sub par

Thewlis was sub par

Didn't think Walker was particularly great tbh

Sometimes you need a smack in the chops to realise that your aren't invincible.

Kicked the 40/20 and proceeded to knock on in the next set. Sometimes it's just not your night and nowt's won in August so we'll hopefully learn from tonight.

2nd best tonight, rhey swarmed us and we had no answer for their nicely placed kicks which they did in both previous games.

We just didn't get going, it happens,

One thing I will say, after people got carried with the shiny new toy of Ben currie in the middle at the start of the year, he's been very very ineffective since the catalans home game.

Someone needs to say it.

Sometimes the opposition really turn up and this happens. We've done well last few weeks so wouldn't want to criticise selection or individuals. Well beaten though. We have beaten them the last 4 games but they are decent lot & you'd probably expect them to give Saints & Wigan a tough time.

This is so funny. We hold every trophy simultaneously, you beat us the week after lowly Hull put us to the sword and you're suddenly Grand final winners. You hayseeds will apparently never learn that a win mid season against a team going through a trough means absolutely nothing. This poop happens all the time. It happens to us every season. We beat you at Wembley when it actually mattered. We will beat you the next time it actually matters.

Your season peaked when you beat us, well done. But you are the gimps, the also rans, the never weres. You are a comedy sketch. You will always spend up to the cap, and you will always be the bridesmaids (at best). John Bateman lol

You were coming off the back of a run of tough games Rovers were coming off the back of wins against bottom half teams. It showed , Rovers had more energy and desire to bring into this game than you had.

You still have a good chance of finishing above Rovers looking at the respective fixture lists.

I expect we will both be hoping for a Leigh win on Tuesday.

Imagine being a Wigan fan on a Warrington forum after they got beat by Hull Kr on Friday night at 22:45.

Fuk me I thought i needed to get a life

A bit like 'after the Lord mayor's show' for Wire. We (Leigh) were the same last night in the 1st half v Cas, but they weren't good enough to punish us.... but they should have done. HKR will be living in dreamland right now, let's see how they deal with it in the upcoming weeks.
