I think I prefer starting poor and finishing strong, instead of starting well and then dropping out of the game. Individual errors hurt both ways of playing though.

Wigan missed a lot of chances first half and we still let them back in the game easily. Our kicking game was basic and the forwards competed fairly well but our three-quarter line was rubbish. Tindall tried but isn't up to scratch, Olpherts looks like a mistake waiting to happen, MacDonald didn't really get involved for me, and that leaves one more who missed two tackles that led to tries and bombed the chance for a winning try.

Good call for the analysis on the first try Seth. Gannon didn’t look comfortable defending in that position, and it seemed to have a knock on effect on those around.

Seen as Christopher isn't on here I'm going to lay it on the line players not up to standard Sezer,Fusitua, Lisone, Olpherts,Mcdonald, Austin I don't understand he's average then world beater when he wants,huge decisions to be made in recruitment let's hope Smith bring in some quality people.

Though Newman bombed the try the game was lost when we went away from being direct. How much time do we want to give the kickers? Hopefully tindal goes to hull fc and we have a receipt for olpherts. Big decisions needed on recruitment

smith brought in 3 of them....
dress it up how you want. leaders, lack of quality whatever.
a selfish player cost us a place in the next round.
it all boils down to that. wish I'd been a fly on the wall in the changing room

Lisone added good impact today. Way down the list for criticism.

Hi.

Whoever he brings in you wont like them

Despite the loss it was an excellent cup tie. I enjoyed it. Wigan regrouped well and were very good in the second half - that needs to be acknowledged. Even though we lost momentum in the second half I always thought we'd get a chance to win the game. If Harry Newman wants to realise his talent and become a marquee/ International/ NRL standard player he has to learn from today's humbling. That pass had to go (as did the one in the first half) and it didn't. He's young yes, but he's old enough to do the basics of the game. His ego is getting in the way of his talent at the moment.

Though Newman bombed 6 points the team let in 18. Not fair to only critise him

he passes we win. didn't learn his lesson from the first half. he cost us the game

He scored the first one, that wad probably the issue.
