The more pertinent question for me is, how did we not beat a team with 44% completion in the first half and less than 60% across the whole game!

Warrington are a very poor side despite their spending, and can only occasionally turn it on and have a good day. Theyre another Castleford, which is why they'll never get near champions this year.

But the worrying thing for me was, Wire were so poor yet we were never really in the game. Dominated field position and possession yet lackluster and completely devoid of ideas near the line. We never looked like making a break and kicks were our best chance of scoring.

For Lam to come out and say that was 'outstanding' is baffling! :CRAZY: He's undermining his own credibility with his post match comments...I think possibly out of mistaken loyalty to the players and wanting to keep their heads up, but you can't give them false praise like that when the performance was dire! I'm no big fan of wanes, but he would have at least told it how it was last night, and ripped into them where he needed to.

You get the sense Lam goes into the dressing room and tells them how good they are, and they were just unlucky and unfairly treated on decisions. Yes, we got some baffling decisions against us last night (the mamo try and the bibby one at the end which should have been awarded), yet even with those decisions, we were still chasing the game and wire always looked the more likely. Regardless of how poor wire were!

Towards the end the players had lost the plot....the victim/ world is against us mentality had consumed them, and all their energy was going into feeling aggrieved (whether with reason or not). Thats a dangerous mindset and you're never going to win like that.

We need to sensibly assess last nights performance as nowhere near good enough against a poor side, rather than bury our head in the sand and find reasons why we were badly done to.


Were not perfect, but were third in the table with a 75% win ratio, your comment just seems to be a bitter one, in the context of SL where Castleford are 42%. Not saying were the real deal and will get to OT, but the opportunity is still there (and for Wigan). SP is not everyone's cup of tea, and most supporters are looking forward to a new man at the helm in 2022. In the meantime, take it on the chin, as there are more important games yet to come.

He did, and if you were along the stand in the right position to follow Mamo and still see Marshall, you would have seen Marshall thump the ground. That wasn’t picked up on camera, the camera was following play. At that point he was suddenly prone knocked out!
And if he has failed a head assessment, I would say he’s let Wigan down, as he has took his kid-ologies too far and made himself unavailable for Sunday. We have all bluffed a bad back to get a day off work or being concussed at some point in our life. It’s not difficult to pretend your knocked out.


Were you there RD? You told everyone on the Warrington board that you wouldn't attend a game of rugby as you didn't want to pass on Covid to your elderly father, who has health issues. Either you've told a massive porky on our board, or you haven't personally seen this happen.
