We’ve conceded 4 very soft tries too.

Re: Leeds (A) : Thu Jul 21, 2022 8:34 pm  

Worst performance of the season. It's a good job the VR decision didn't actually change anything.

Re: Leeds (A) : Thu Jul 21, 2022 8:35 pm  

I think we’ve thought we would win tonight and just need to turn up, and if I’m honest I thought we would and the meters our forwards are making we should but our defence has been awful, that’s 3/4 soft try’s we have conceded now.

Has shabino turned up yet giving it the big un haha

Re: Leeds (A) : Thu Jul 21, 2022 8:39 pm  

Has everyone forgot we can kick the ball

Re: Leeds (A) : Thu Jul 21, 2022 8:39 pm  

One of those games sadly. Happened under Madge and loads of times under Wane too. I've also seen us do the same to far better Leeds sides than this Wigan one (Thomas Coyle anyone)..

The question now is about the response, attitude and what Peet can learn. It isn't hyperbole to say that certain players shouldn't play for us again.

Re: Leeds (A) : Thu Jul 21, 2022 8:39 pm  

We've rocked up tonight expecting a walkover, and got battered for showing that kind of arrogance.

Bad day at the office, it's a reminder that we can take a beating if we don't take a game seriously. They've played it like a cup, final, we've played it like it's a formality.

Re: Leeds (A) : Thu Jul 21, 2022 8:41 pm  

That VR call is the most blatantly incorrect decision I can remember.

What on earth is going on with officiating this season, absolutely shambolic.

No matter who the coach is, Isa always gets a game. He isn't alone in being terrible tonight but him not being a centre just compounds it and completely unbalances the side.

Oh, and O'neil can't get a game all of a sudden. Part of the reason for the upturn in form was him and Smith and now he doesn't get a look in. Just back to the usual, Isa, Powell and Partington none of whom ever do anything. All plodders. We have a hooker with zip and movement and he get's frozen out for playing well. Peet doing his best to keep the failings of Lam going. No balls to drop the favourites despite talk of players playing on form. Utter tosh.

absolutely bang on, said the same myself

Re: Leeds (A) : Thu Jul 21, 2022 8:46 pm  

It's almost as though the rest of the Wigan team have bought into the French/Field can win games mentallity because some of the rest of the team have been woefu with no ideas at all.

I have defended Isa in the past but he never ever breaks a first tackle which for someone who was/is a second row playing centre is shockingly bad. Faz has gone off the boil since his new contract and I think we have missed Bateman's drive and energy.

Think Peet will have a lot of work to do in training because that was a truly awful performance - so many players looked well off tonight.
