Shame for Wrench, wonder if Thewlis and Dean will miss out when the other 2 are back.

King - crap defence.

Dean - superb

Nice effort by young Riley Dean. He's going to keep a defensive line guessing which should make us a bit less pathetic in the opposition 20. Good response to going behind there, not something I've been accustomed to in recent times.

What time's Toby turning up?

No one cares

Our left edge is shocking tonight. Currie dean king nbashton cannot cope when field n french are over that side

Great try for Ashton.

It’s fortunate we’ve had help from Hicks to score our try’s.
Wigan don’t need Hicks’s help. They’re carving up our left side like warm Stork SP.

As Powell said “we’ll see where we are after Wigan!”

Their right edge is just too good, just too hard to watch field and French at the same time. The sad one said Field doesn't offer much other than pace and he was very wrong. He's tearing us apart. We are playing alright but they look like scoring everytime they get into our 20, can't see us winning this one.

That’s the winning score for me from Farrell.
We’re already beaten. There is not 14 points without Hicks help in us.

Mr Powell. That’s where we are at.
Now ffs KF buy a loving prop forward.

I'm getting bored of Philbin, that was a pathetic attempted tackle and I doubt he has made 10m so far! Very soft try from a defensive point of view.

Thing is we are offensively better than we have been in a long while but we cant cope with the threat of Wigan in attack. Cant knock our spirit or workrate, we are just not as good as Wigan.
Just hope we are not embarrassed.

We are giving it a good go, but we can't cope with their attacking speed and shape. It is what it is - they are just better than us at the moment, I'm afraid.

Halftime scoreline is fair, they're just better than us. We aren't playing badly but they're a lot more clinical. Pretty much the same move scored their first 3 tries!

They look exceptionally well drilled.

Totally agree.

If we score 2 on the run early this half it will make a game of it but they will still win it. This Wigan attack is very, very good, they're the second best side in the competition by some distance.

At what point do you sub our 4?

Farrell try is game over..hope Powell drops king and brings back wrench..fwiw Williams start earning your over rated salary

It’s now all about keeping that score down as I fear the worst going on that shocking defence.

Have Wigan had the ball in our 20 and NOT scored?

Agree with this, at the minute Riley Dean should be first choice half, he's been the most effective this season so far. Widdop and Williams shouldn't be behind him but they just are, they may even be behind ratchford as well.

Defensively not solid enough there's not only king at fault or not defending well I don't see how some are singling him out everyone from Currie outwards has been poor defensively when field has come over that side.

Saying that we also look a lot better in attack down the very same side were struggling in defence. On the whole this is more of what we've been asking for ? Effort and not one man rugby. While we're in the wrong side of the score line it IS an entertaining game.


And to now make it more interesting now field for this half

There's some tries tonight that we really shouldn't be conceding. Very strange. Fumbles are fumbles. Missed tackles are terrible
