How did Wigan beat us.



12 man Leeds putting them to the sword tonight.

Cos it's sport. It's great. You want risk and endeavour and uncertainty.

Nice on Matty lad

And Leeds have been pants for most of the match. Wigan don’t really look that great. However, I’d back them against us in the wet at the moment. Something to think about come October time.

Wigan ave been poor tonight.



C’mon Wire let’s get this game in the bag.

Powell needs to give em a kick up the booty.

We didn't start until dufty came on tonight.

The result is very important, means more than a poor first half performance.

100% no brainer he goes back to starting.

Clark is having a good game since he came on.

And that’s what is known as crying it in! well done to everyone involved myself included

Philbin MoM he carried us when he came on.

That's a fantastic win, really good to find a way to win When we aren't at out best.



4 points clear now too.



Powell out

We have now won more league games in 2023 than we did in the whole of 2022.

Quality analysis again, fellas.... In just 40 minutes, we've gone from a failing season and wanting Powell out again, to seeing Wigan bomb against 12 men and Wire going 4 pts clear...





Think you lads want to wait until the end of a game before you start with the doom and gloom...

Yeh Powell out, can’t be giving me heart palpitations at my age

A game of rugby nearly broke out

Bar Catalans away, Wire haven’t proven themselves against the top sides.



It’s a real worry, as is the poor performances in the last couple of games.



Just sayin

2 quiet games now for Williams.

That aged well.

Who are the top sides? There have been no stand outs in the league this year. Saints included.

We beat catalans when they were 2nd didn't we? Now we have just beaten 3rd. Sure we have been a bit flat the last 4 matches and especially the last 2 but we have still won the last 2 and lost the other 2 against 2 of the top sides with practically no pack.



We shouldn't get ahead of ourselves at all because we haven't been good enough for that, but a wins a win and we have won more than everyone else this season so far.

You're kidding right? We have lost two games, that's it. We don't need to prove ourselves against Wigan and St H in rounds 9 and 10. We need to beat them in September/October.

Fairly hilarious thread. And yes I know I am guilty of histrionics on here at times.

Well, much as I rate Thewlis I think the full-back debate is over.

Spot on, thought that was his best game for a while. Exactly what we needed that second half
