Looking at the match stats we actually made 140 metres more than Cas. Significantly we shut down their two main playmakers, Trueman and McShane who only made 14 metres each. Niall Evalds also only made 37 metres.

We did an excellent job on Watts as well. He only made around 50 metres and that’s a guy who has run in advance of 150 metres in a pretty regular basis against us and other teams. He’s actually had a really quiet start to the season when I’ve seen him though.

I thought he looked a little out of condition, or had added some unneeded weight.

Certainly nowhere near his best at the minute. When we talk about him as an option here, we’d need to keep an eye on how he’s performing now because as much as we’d love a Liam Watts of 2019, things change and players lose form and head on a downward trajectory. We ideally need the next Liam Watts or an overseas prop who will come in and make an impact.

Coming a bit late to this party but I had problems with the code last year and when I tried it yesterday, then remembered last year I was told you had to activate it on the app first as I was trying to input the code on the website and it kept saying oops something has gone wrong. Activated the code yesterday on the app then watched it on the smart TV

I would however swap Clarke & Clubb for Walmsley or Thompson as they'd only improve us and not compromise one of our biggest strengths.

Wouldn't that be awesome if we could swap Clubb for Walmsley! That would have to be the most one-sided swap deal in history!
Saints - We might consider letting you have Walmsley for £600K
Wigan - What if we throw in Tony Clubb?
Saints - In that case we'd want £800K

Re: Cas game live stream : Fri Apr 23, 2021 2:34 pm  

Watched an interview with Clubb before where he seemed to suggest he’d spoke to Lam and put a case forward that he should start and that Bullock was suited to playing from the bench. If you keep a place on 3 carries and 16 tackles as a starting front row then props are redundant at Wigan. We may as well find more back row forwards and play a full pack of them.

it's like swapping a casio for a cartier. Wait a few months and the Thompson rumours will be here again. Will he go back to saints after being slammed by mcmanus in the media? He is from Wigan isn't he? If he isn't happy in Australia and we have been saving the cap space for a mid season signing I could see it happening. My god he would turn into the devil if that happened. Our phalanged challenged friends over the lump will be burning effigies.

He maybe from Ashton, went to school at Edmund Arrowsmith, played alongside Joe Burgess and Oliver Gildart. However he was/is a big Saints fan and gave his address as one of his St. Helens based relatives so that he could be their service area and played there as a junior.

How must Clark and Kilner feel?

Wigan have recently cancelled Clark’s move to Toulouse which was going to be finalised last week.

Very strange.
