....I don't care either way, but I never said "Wigan are the best team in SL"....nor did I say will finish LLS winners".

Such a pity this poor run has come in June. In case anyone has forgotten, they're still second.

Would much prefer Wigan to have this form in September.

Keep it up, Pies.

We do have to remember that they beat a well motivated Wire side at Magic Weekend ... so don't write 'em off just yet. Wakefield are a capable side on a good day.
Wigan were penalised three times for dissent ... its about time our Refs clamped down on this.

The last 2 games i have seen them play reminds me of how we were last year. Gobbing of at the ref. Players running across the line with no runners. Dummy half switching off or nobody at DH. Players trying to win the game on their own. I thought Wane had managed disruption in the camp well up until now but it does look like the wheels are starting to fall off. They are still second but can quickly start to drop down the ladder if they dont react quickly. Saints did last year and we were slow to react due to sentiment.

Huh?

Wigan are struggling up front for bodies. The strength of their bench was a white flag waving before the whistle!

Childs gets a lot of stick on these forums. I thought he was excellent last night.

When Wigan brought their interchange forwards on I had to ask "how far away are they?"

I agree.

i wondered the same when i saw number 30, i thought it was one of their academy lads, i didn't realise it was that prop they signed from the gold coast. he's tiny.

I think Hamlin will do okay for them though, surprised he hasn’t had more game time. He seems a bit of a Danny Nutley, and more effective than Tautai.

Despite their current n355, they still remain second, and now have a game in hand on us.

Not at round 23 you don't. ....It clearly says "a tough 6 weeks" and doesn't say anything about Wigan being the best team or winning the LLS. The contents of your rubber jonny seem to have leaked all over your face.

Blimey could of put the supporters in the dugouts...

Why, oh why, do SKY persist in screening Salford and Widnes games?

I don't care if the deal says all clubs have to be on x number of times a season, and I don't care if tonights match is a nail-biting roller-coaster of emotion (it isn't); a match played in front of a crowd who could fit comfortably in a garden shed does the game no service whatsoever.

I'd rather watch Toulouse, Toronto, Leigh or Featherstone.

How poor is James Child. use some common sense !!

The crowd was that low that they announced the names of the crowd to the team.

Lol. You can be funny.

Salford, Widnes, Huddersfield and to a certain extent Wakefield are holding the game back. Poor teams, poor results, Poor facilities, Poor atmosphere, Poor ambition and woeful attendances

I agree the attendances are poor for the first 3, but they all play in relatively modern stadia.

It's grim reading - 2017 Average Home attendance.

Salford Red Devils 4,703
Wakefield Trinity 5,289
Widnes Vikings 5,767
Huddersfield Giants 5,826

Entire SL 8,568

I hold some hope for Wakey if they can get their facilities sorted, Widnes and Salford look close to the edge - Huddersfield are lucky they have a rich (if very old!) backer. Ideally the likes of Widnes & Salford would take a place in a fully professional second tier, but we'd need a team capable of replacing them that improve the competition, Toronto? Toulouse? Other US? other France?

By stadium capacity I think Wakefield have the greater fill level along with neighbours Castleford.

Personally i think cas should be included in this list, yeah they're having a purple patch now, but they've had them before and been relegated, they're as bad as wakey in false dawns and new stadia. It's never gonna happen.

Perhaps they should consider a shared stadium, built on the boarder?
