love sake. Thrown this away big time in the final 10.

Yep sounds like we’ve played dumb rugby and had far too much defensive work to do from our own doing.
Our end of sets are pretty poor.

Appreciate Smith sees the team the most, but Carlos just isn't captain material to me. Sin binned with 3 minutes left cost us the game in 80minutes. Now a man down in golden point

How many goes do Wigan get? I can’t take it.

Snatched from the jaws of victory.

Re: Wigan Warriors - Away : Fri Aug 18, 2023 9:00 pm  

Well a good effort I guess. Didn't expect a win before the game but in the end its 2 points lost in my opinion

Gutting way to lose. 88 min drop goal

Annoying way to lose but heyho.
Sounds like a potentially costly night besides the points though. Houghton failed HIA, Taylor off injured, Carlos possibly banned and Litten potential HIA failed.
Could have a threadbare team next week.

Truth be told people ask for size upfront but for me our backs just arent good enough at clearing our lines.

Litten seems to be making his errors on basic full back stuff. That said great effort considering down to 15 men. Puzzling decision to not have another prop play. Dont think Wigan were much better in the conditions but made more ground going forward.

Whilst its nice to see our goal line D is good we need to stop putting far too much preassure on ourselves. Some games we just seem to be in our own half.

Re: Wigan Warriors - Away : Fri Aug 18, 2023 9:11 pm  

I've said it before and I'll say it again regarding Litten, he is still very young and learning and will have some inconsistencies and errors in him.

in reality nothing to play for in terms of the play offs.
I would certainly recall Balmforth and give him a run of games till the season end.
resilience in spades but offered nothing in attack and it was Wigans errors with Smith once again missing conversions that kept us in the game.
