The defence was soft last year too.

So Poore was sent off for having a better punch!



That's fair!

we field almost our best team ,wigan well under strenegh ;folk are happy i give up,didnt go , listened to commetary impression i got a second team wigan were half pace expect stick from some dont care

Pretty much what McGoldrick said on the radio. Poore was sent off for throwing a better punch.

So why wasn't he at lest warned?

It got better - but also we controlled the ball much better - from around this point in the season.

This is the level the team are at. They were poor most of last year but the 7 game winning streak meant the squad overachieved. Expect a 10th or lower place finish this year.

And has i said last year we got lucky with a few results, the two drop goal wins for a start, i agree we won't make the 8 this year.

That’s a decent effort,what with Wigan being on fire of late & Poore letting his teammates down again.

It’s the points we’ve dropped this season against Huddersfield, Catalan, Salford & Hull that’s cheesed me off, that’s seven points thrown away, today was always a extremely tall order.

I don't agree with that. I thought we were ahead of the game last year, but I think 8 is possible and below that is realistic.

When you analyse the side we played today we were beaten by a couple of brilliant players, a few good ones and a few kids - it's about the systems they employ and the attitude they take with them and reckon you could take several from each side, put them in the other side and not really notice them.

Very frustrating indeed!

This!

Yep thats the frustrating story of this season, not todays brave effort.

This !

Yes he can he's a professional rugby player if he'd gone down with the punch it may have been Farrell leaving the pitch instead with a potential different game developing.

Some good team spirit but again too many unforced errors. If a player is not 100 % fit don't play them. (Kirmond in 19 instead of Mariano + Raleigh). Hope Mathers is ok for next week? I wonder if we'll go a decade without beating pie eaters at theirs?

324 away fans today.

Credit to the ones that made the trip but I did hope for more.

its only 3 years ago we beat them over there, first game of the season in the snow

Think Trinity conceded less than 20 points in only seven games last season. Three of those were in the last 7 games. With that kind of crappy defence the attack has the be in top form to compensate. In the winning streak it was. This season it has been patchy a best.

Yep, a touch cold that day but it dosen't matter when you win.

TBH after last week i'm suprised that many travelled over.

Its not great mate, i can't afford many away days sadly.

Did they stop the clock that day, the one on the stand

Yeah they did, sem to remember we were unhappy and accused them of cheating once or twice.

A margin of twenty points isn't too bad as Wakefield were down to twelve men most of the game and considering the form that Wigan have shown this season.I expected a much bigger defeat .

I agree with TRB this side are better than this but they let themselves down at times.Hudds game they gifted them a good start from stupid penaltys.Hull players were walking back after our second try like "here we go again" looking at the floor then sloppy tackeling let them in and we went down hill.Thats just two games to mention where the side let themselves down.They need to stop this piggybacking the other side up the field for starters.

How many times do they have to let themselves down before it becomes accepted that they just aren't that good. Trinity are bottom five material. Anything above that will be a bonus.

I know what you're saying, its just an opinion that I don't share. In the 2 Smiths, Collis and Lautiti we have some X factor that can lift us higher and I still think our pack can mix it with most.

Cut down on errors and we can compete!
