What was he doing? Was at the match and haven't seen the game yet.

thought the subject meant another thread about Gareth Hock ..

Looked like he was ripping the head off it.....

he was kearessing his twinkie

I was also crying laughing. Bet they don't show that on Harry Hills TV burp.

I agree with this. I suppose if there are positives to take from this its that virtually all our problems were of our own making. We were clearly the better side and I think now that our forwards are finally getting on top in games, the potential is there for all to see. Again our defense was outstanding though, which is something that was plaguing us even when we were playing well in attack so that's also something to take from it. Other than that, as others have said, a win is all that matters and in those conditions I suppose anything could have happened!

Good win against a team who make it difficult. 2 years ago my wife and I bought tickets for Wembley before the semi final against Catalans. Paid for 2 nights in the Thistle hotel, theatre tickets for the Friday and ended up buying french verets and shouting for the dragons in the final. Not wanting to put the mockers on us again, I'm gonna book the same tomorrow! Hope I don't waste my money this year!

That is a clip for Tarrent on TV

that was a typical cup game and i definately enjoyed it.

a very good performance from our pack in my opinion, in fact it is probably the best all round performance I have seen from this wigan pack of forwards for a long times.

Coley and fielden where outstanding up front with feka working hard and prekky providing the youth, our forwards where definately working the second phase.

JT, phil bailey and gaz hock where great both in attack and defence in the second row. Gareth hock proved why he is potentially the best second rower on the planet with his performance, wakefield could not handle him.

sean o loughlin must be our contender for man of steel- he is a monster in defence and he has definately started applying himself in attack.

my heart is in my mouth this year with wigan! it is the first time i have ever asked us to control the ball- the attacking freedom our lads are playing with is unbelievable.

anyone else think bentham was a twa t again. he called us back and video reffed for everything. when tomkins scored, questioned a dummy runner, lockers went through about ten yards away and drew three defenders, tomkins then stepped two players, joke, the hock alleged elbow, rubbish. any opportunity to deny us, he would, frustrating refereeing, looking for a way to cancel any score. glad we put it out of reach of a dodgy decision

Bentham was shocking!! Worst ref in the league by far.

How about when he had us for obstruction 10m from the line! That was a shocking decision!! Coley was a dummy runner, ran straight through the defence, touching nobody, obstructing nobody, and he gives a penalty??

I agree with the original post. We at times did some stupid things but are really looking the part at times. From the 10th minute upto the 55th is the best all round ive seen us play for a long while. The game was complete control and Wakey never looked likely to score.

The go forward was immense by the pack. Coley was awsome for the time he was on and Feka caused problems. Lockers now is really looking a good player.


Pretty soon some side is going to get a big beating from us.

I thought we did what we needed to win the game. Wakefield always make it hard for the opposition and whilst we by no means ran away with the game we always looked in control and that we could go up another gear or 2 if needed.

I agree. As Nobby said, we found reasons to win the game.

We had more points in us if needed.

I thought we played very well under difficult circumstances and came back from a very poor 1st 5 mins which at the start of the season we would probably have folded.

I though McIllorum played very well, great tackling display, really put some hard hits in and played well running from dumy half and supporting. He does need to watch his distribution though a few probable forward passes in there.

Forwards especially Coley played well - he's a different player this month and big Pat showed his quality yet again.

Overall a very good game and enjoyable to watch although we probably should have got a coupe more scores.

When I read the thread title I thought it pretty much summed up Gareth Hock.

I thought it was going to be a thread about Hock as well

When is Coley's contract due up? Is he playing for a new one? Either way, he is playing the best I've seen him so far!

Kept saying at the game that this side has huge talent but it doesn't know when to play and when to stick.

It needs to learn and learn quickly how to be that bit smarter but if they can we could be onto something.

We've got that many points in the side that if they can be smart enough to keep the ball away from the opposition as much as possible we'll win alot more then we'll lose.

Spot on and something I have been saying for a while.

But no-one can accuse Wigan of being dull and boring can they?

Not now they can't.

The transition in playing style has been amazing to be fair and even though it's heart attack tackle it's thrilling to watch.

I'd say they should now call us 'The Entertainers'

Maybe you should change your signature mate to "the home of kamikaze rugby"

Took me long enough to figure out how to get that thing there in the first place without trying to change it now!

If we carry on like this it'll just look like i'm being ironic anyway
