O/T but Mary Fa'asavalu got owned by the thug that is Ryan Bailey. Was a fair enough tackle, a little high but hilarious.

Why are you Cruncher>????????????????????

Just watched it now and it was a beauty



The lights went straight out!!!

Bailey is cack mind and got battered in the next tackle by a mentalist looking Graham.

If you mean "battered" by coming 3rd man in to cowardly try to injure someone then.... yeah i suppose so

That, coupled with one poor would be catch was why Roberts was dropped.

If we are going to drop somebody if they're not involved, we'll never have the same right winger for two consecutive games.

Had to be elsewhere last night but have had calls from two different people who went and both said that we conceded far too many linebreaks again tonight and that most other teams would have punished us severely.
True?

Yes. Although it was a comfortable win, without us hitting top form, they got behind us with a bit too much ease at times. Their second try, Smith was just like a turnstile and it was all too easy for them. He's definitely being targeted now. Myler did look useful for them. Thought we looked really dangerous down our left side. Pat is looking more at home at fullback, Riddells passing an awareness of what's around him is excellent and Coley had his best Wigan game. No coincidence for me though that he was running wider instead of straight down the middle and had lots of success because of it. Why we don't use this ploy a little more I don't know.'"

I agree about us defending the line breaks - we seem clueless when we have to scramble back . tim Smith left a gap the size of a bus for the second try

Comfortable win without really hitting any sort of top form. Defence is still a bit of a concern but taking Smith out should solve that as he was the source of most of there linebreaks apart from when Myler managed to squeeze through a gap

Pat was great, positioned himself very well and made great yards. I was pretty suprised to see it was him flying doiwn the right wing to be honest

Pryce still looked slow and unfit to me, didn't do a lot and what he did wasn't anything special at all, he's going to need to make some serious improvement if he wants a contract for next season. Bailey was solid as usual as was Carmont (looked like he was carrying a bit of an injury and got some treatment) but he had one of his best games of the season for us. Ainscough was busy as ever and even managed to take on himself when going for his contract

Sam was very good and grew in confidence as the game went on, his first try was great to watch. Tommy was decent at 7 but miles better when he went to 9 and his broken play running was (as usual) fantastic.

Prescott had a good run out and hopefully now he can leave all injuries behind him and get some decent form together like we know he is capable of. Riddell controlled things really well and had his second best game in wigan colours. Coley had his best game in a Wigan shirt, don't know whether he will keep it up though. Hansen was his usual self getting through a lot of work without doing anything spectacular. Hock was very strong as always and I hope his injury isn't serious. Lockers played really well IMO and had one of best games of the season and has been one of our most consistent performers this season

Feka was his usual monster like self. Fielden got through a lot of work and improved on last week but still not good enough. Smith was like a turnstile and didn't do anything in attack, should be back in the reserves next week. Joel was very good and linked up with Sam excellently in the second half

I was right on that touchline and Pat was about to be bundled into touch, that's why he didn't back himself. His offload to Tommy was perfect though and we got the try. He made the right decision.

He never came inside to look for work, he's a big lad and should be helping out taking the ball up, like Richards did many times. When the ball came to his wing he was stooped being injured. He dropped a sitter in the first half as well. Ainscough has stamped some authority on the game, and I agree he should have scored when one on one with the full back, and with more long distance pace would be even more dangerous. Price needs to get himself involved, get noticed etc. He should be impressive against a team we score 30 odd points against. He wasn't.

Yep his defence was good, but I want a winger to be an attacking option, he was unlucky with the ball he tapped back from a high kick to be adjudged a knock on.

He should be taking the ball up every other set or so, if he can't cos he's hurt he shouldn't be playing. It's nearly 3 months now since he debuted v wire, he should be back in the swing of things etc. I hope he proves me wrong,

Where were you stood mate? I was bang online with Richards when he was running down the touch line towards the Wigan fans. I thought he was gonna get bundled into touch cause he was slowing down looking for the off load? Guess it's just one interpretation of the same even.

In response to Everton1- Ratchford couldn’t move in the first half without Pryce telling him 2. In one tackle he almost cut him in half and he also I thought cleared up a few grubbers on his side.

I’m not saying he had the greatest game but what he did with the ball when he got it was just as if not better than what Roberts has done with it.

We defiantly need to send the ball more down his side tho almost all the play in the first half almost seemed to be going to Ainscough for breaks. Think that had a lot to do with both Coley, Riddell and Carmont breaking thorough the defence a lot, lot easier down that flank.

Another point - Salford fans are the biggest moaners ever.

thats funny because i come frome wigan but support salford and after speaking to a few mates today got the same comments from them about pryce and i dont mean agreing with you i mean pryce is garbage and not fit to wear that wigan shirt big time donkey who coundnt break wind last nite never mind a tackle when i get last nights dvd i will post it on a popular video website of when pryce cuts ratchford in half you joker

No need to get all defensive mate. Pryce knocked Ratchford off at least two times last night and stepped him in the process of hurting his hip. I honestly can't remember Ratchford coming close to troubling Pryce at all in attack. Pryce defiantly came out on top between the two or are you honestly saying Ratchford played better than Pryce?

Add to that the big hit he did on fitzpatrick late on in the 2nd half i'd hardly say he was gash. Maybe you should look at some of your own players for the definition of garbage.

If I could just say that the idiots around Salfords ground [Not rugby fans just your general little scrotes but a downer on the evening for me. Trying to pick fights on the way to the ground and then again on the way back at the tram station. I know it's not the Salford club who is responsible for this but a policeman on ever corner armed with a shotgun would surely not go amiss?

I parked at half seven 5 minutes walk away, no traffic at all, straight back to car at end, no trouble at all. On way with absolutely no delay and no hassles whatsoever. Much easier than at the JJB for me.

1 SAM
2 COLEY
3 PAT/AINSCOUGH

ONLY BEEN WATCHING AND PLAYING RUGBY FOR 30 YEARS I BETTER PACK IT IN BECAUSE I ONLY SEEN THE 1 BIG HIT ALL NIGHT NOTHING ELSE DIDNT BEAT RATCHFORD 1.ALSO NOT BAD FOR A KID WHO IS A STAND OFF

Although there were signs around the estate near the ground saying residents parking only it still seemed a lot fans parked there and there were no residents only badges. Got a few funny looks tho but overall straight in straight out and back 2 the Brocket with a pint for 10:20! Not bad imo

parked the road near the weaste pub n got back vegas at 2230

couldnt agree more pryce is awful

Lol there is a button called caps lock you know you may wanna try it.

Like another poster said he knocked Ratchford flat on his booty with one drive. Funny how you seemed to miss that isn't it? Or did you miss the time he stepped two of your players (Ratchford being one) or did you also miss the excellent jump over Ratchford to palm the ball back for Bailey? Guess none of that stuff happened did it?

Please tell me the one time he was troubled by ANY of your team down his wing? Everything you threw at him he dealt with it clearing up a few grubber kicks in goal and was untroubled by any high bombs your NL1 side did.

Lets face it Pryce could play Wing, Centre or FB in you team and your club would love to have him even if you don’t rate him!

So what if he knocked Ratchford and Fitzpatrick on their backsides - have you seen the size of them? A player of his size should be able to do that.

Pryce didn't have to deal with the majority of our kicks because they were garbage and ran dead



Against a better team he would have been severely exposed last night - can't say I'd want him playing for us at all - looked even less fit than our players last night which is saying something as well.

We parked at Ladywell P+R and used Metrolink.

Only had to wait two mins for a tram back at the end of the game and got straight away with no problems at all.
