Noble has signed some poor players to be fair so has to shoulder some blame.

I am a Noble supporter, something which is well known on this forum. However, there comes a time when even the most loyal supporter must concede that it is not good enough, and after Friday I am considering my position on it. I am not saying I am against Noble, but my position considering Noble is becoming negative.

I'm all for stability, perhaps that's one of the main reasons behind my support of Noble, but if "for the sake of stability" Wigan RLFC are becoming a poor team and a boring side to watch, stability suddenly becomes silly.

Had a brief chat with Nobby on Friday. He is mystified why the team do not execute their set plays that have been practised all week. Expect changes in personnel.

IMO we are reverting to the Basil days where the squad simply aren't cohesive. It was apparent after the game. All the brits together, none of the imports to be seen.

It would seem to boil down to two things then, no pride from the players & not wanting to play for Noble? I hope he will shake up team selection, its needed.

But why, what is driving them to be 2 seperate groups, other than the sheer amount of imports in the squad perhaps.
