Maybe if you went to the game you would have a different opinion, he was brilliant today.

It's been a good day for us. I thought we made the game harder for ourselves then it should have been at times but we got the win in the end.

Pat Richards is going to smash all sorts of records if he keeps this form up. He's so consistant in his play that sometimes he possibly doesn't get the praise he deserves.

4 points clear should be 6

damn them bulls

IMO if we hadnt lost to bradford we would have lost one of the games we have won, teams would have tried that little bit harder to be the first team to beat us.

Our tactics have driven Wakefield's fans away today - attendance 4,671.

Did Crusaders bring many?

Dismal attendance, though after the ludicrously low travelling numbers from Wakefield on Easter Monday, that's no surprise.

I have no time for people droning on about the need to support the "heartlands" when some of the so-called heartland clubs have so little strength in either supporter base or player base that they offer very little to the game. At least the expansion clubs help project an image of the game which is attractive to its main financial backer - Sky - and sponsors and encourage amateur clubs in new areas. Clubs like Wakefield need to buck up their ideas or be booted out of SL.

Gotta disagree there mate.

You can't build a house without good foundations and i think it's a principle which works for expansion as well.

The problem is we are using the wrong heartland clubs Widnes should be in over Wakey & Salford and probably Cas as well.

I wanna see SL strengthen its core before it moves into areas battling with sports like RU who punch far above our weight.

You’ve just gotta pick the right heartland clubs.

Actually the line wasn't begging, you was passing it to him when Gibson was standing right infront of him or right at the side like 5metres away from the line waiting for Goulding to get the ball to throw him constantly in touch, wasn't Gouldings fault it was superb defence.

Ref was more on your side to be honest. We did what we did against Huddersfield we wasn't letting you play.

He wouldn't of though, they was giving him the ball he was next to the white wash and Gibson was just waiting to push him out, simples.

Be interesting to see the penalty count ?

I was impressed with Gibson looks a good signing and a good defensive combination with Talau.

If Salford replicate today's effort in the remainder of their home games they will win more than they lose.

TBH from down the other end it looked like the line was begging but at least that explains it. I said to my dad that I would be suprised if he missed 3 easy chances with the form hes in.

It was 9-6 against with about 10 to IIRC.

Not usually one to have ago at the ref and his assistants, but in the second half some of your passes were so far forward it was untrue. Anyway you deserved to win, Pat Richards is sheer class and any team in the world would be lucky to have him. That pass from Tomkins for you last try was out of this world and that was the difference IMO you had that killer punch and we didn't, but i'm so so proud of us today. hopefully we'll carry our recent form into the cup game in France on Saturday!!!!!

Best if luck

You'll definitely shock a few this year if you perform like you did today. I predicted a hard tough game and that's exactly what we got. Probably one of our toughest games all year as it was a real gutsy performance.

Best if luck!!!


Can you tell I've had a beer



Best of luck thats meant to say

I was very impressed with how much your out wide defence has improved, from the leaky sieve of the recent past. Not only did you keep Goulding out, those two tries on the left needed two superb cutout passes and still work to do for Pat to get over.

Good luck in France next week - play like you did today and you'll win.

[iWELL DONE with your win yesterday

Great to see so many Wigan fans at the the Willows.

Good luck for the rest of the season.

Wrote that when I was still pi$$ed off with him, think I wrote somewhere else he was bad for both teams, he was awful for Offside though

I was right in front of it mate and it was brilliant defending, but Wigan kept giving it Goulding when he wasn't calling for it and when he was calling for it they wasn't giving it him.

it's difficult to judge the offside from behind the posts but it looked a very short 10 meters even from there.

Penalty count was 11 - 8 to Salford, but two of the ones given to Wigan were late on. Alibert has a certain reputation for evening things out at the back end of the game.
