Yet again, we switched off at half time, but having said that, I'd have taken that score before kickoff. George going off didn't help - Hoff certainly isn't a centre, but the biggest difference for me (apart from overall attitude) was McIlorum's absence - he was ripping them apart first half, and was my MoM.

Ah well...another 2 league points, and a +50 points diff - I'll settle for that.

we have no killer instinct as I put on my other post Sam needs to pass, he is SOOOOOO selfish it is untrue.

no killer instinct? did you really watch the same game? have you ever played in a game where you are abosultely battering a team? it gets abit boring and all you want is the whistle to be blown for full time!

Yes and Yes......see Warrington

Give over, Wire only scored a try and a goal more than we did

Arguing over killer instinct? We had a fantasic win! let's work on issues and push on. Wire look the team to beat, but we are the team to beat them. Can't wait for it.

they were 28 nil up at half time, we were 42 nil up! go figure, who stopped playing, who conceded a try and who didnt.

it is a habit we have and why Warrington have a far superior points difference, tonight we had a chance to post more points and didnt, I would also say Cas are possibly better opposition to Harlequins

not arguing over it killer instinct, its just an opinion, you are right Warrington have shown the way and we will struggle to beat them on their patch in their current form.

Still both got 2 points though didn't we?

They put 80+ past them, didn't they?

What are you on about? We didnt need to show up in the 2nd half, the game was won. Thats the most important thing the 2 points. We win our game in hand we go top of the league, taking points difference out of the equation

62 according to sporting life, if thats wrong i do apologise

we beat huddersfield, they havent. where was there killer instinct that game? talking rubbish because they beat a team with more points than we did!

Past Quins, I mean, when they played them. No point comparing with Cas.

Fantastic first half. Boring second.

I do wonder if Madge and Bitcon tell the boys to settle down when we are winning easy to not risk injury. We did not play the same rugby as we did in the first half.

Let's just cut the bull. This thread really is about who's best Wigan or Warrington. Both teams rattled their opposition tonight, forget by how much by that's just irrelevant.
So are we better than them?

my honest opinion is no, we are not better, I think they are better currently which pains me as I work in Warrington.

There is an identical thread on the Wire board, we scored more than them, my dad is bigger than yours etc etc

I don't think there is much in it..either team could win a game against each other on the day.

Big test for us in Leeds away next in the league....that could go either way. I think there are five teams that will be battling for the shield with an improving Hull making it 6 very capable teams.

Great competition and great for the game.

anyone notice sam blatantly trying to beg the ball off sean? that greedy for the ball that he now wants it off his team mates?

he has really gone down in my estimations after that and he wasnt my man of the match either!

My opinion isn't just based on tonight. Intact, tonight has hardly any bearing at all...
They are the better team imo

That was just a bit of fun...but he had a poor game by his own usually high standards, and first time for ages he's not been in my top 3.

i do usually defend him; but i dont think he played well tonight & i think he needs to start thinking more of how he can get the ball out to someone else to score rather than keep it for himself.

We were 42-0 up after 30 minutes, at that point we stopped. We could have easily ran in 80+ points tonight, but for whatever reason, we totally stopped. I can only assume it was under instruction from Madge, because they for/against was there for the taking tonight.

Letting them score was the sickner, though Child did his bit in terms of keeping Quins down there.

If so then it's a ridiculous thread.

We took our foot off the gas in the second half - the game was won and we didn't want any injuries. Let's see how we follow it up - I'm pretty sure Warrington lost to Crusaders the week after a big win.

Who gives a f*ck about Warrington? If we look after ourselves with out game in hand we will be top of the league so everyone else is irrelevant, great first half performance by the boys today, Harlequins have always been a team that play better in the 2nd half so that would have been a big factor too.

I've been a massive critic of McIlorum but he was immense today, absolutely superb. Hope he can keep that level of performance up, we really missed him when he went off!
