And Wigan finished top which is what most expect them to do, so should Peet not be nominated?
I'm happy to defer to the other super league coaches on this, but obviously you know better

I thought Lewis, as good as he is with ball in hand, was found out a bit defensively. Granted he won’t be the last person French makes look silly.

His (Lewis) performance reminded me of Gale in 2017. Wasn't allowed to dictate the game as he had all season and didn't show he had the where with all to impose himself. A couple of poor decisions with ball in hand, possibly borne out of frustration.

Wigan just ground them down and counter-punched brilliantly.
Not a game for attacking it was a defensive masterclass from both sides punctured by a brilliant bit of skill from Bevan French and were also unlucky / lucky (point of view) to having another chalked of for being within 10.

Thought HKR played into the hands of Wigan and let them dictate the flow and pace of the game where there was only going to be one winner.

I'd agree with the non testing of the Wigan wingers but if you bugger one of those up your not catching any of their back three from any distance, maybe thats why they went the way they did, bit more conservative.

Thought KR battled very well but were a little bit one dimensional going forward when it really mattered. Enjoyed the game though, full credit to Wigan, they are a very good side. Forward pack is exceptional and French is in the form of his life. Surprised if he's not off back to NRL tbh... Wigan have done very well to keep him - something Leeds have kept failing to do in recent years.

Interesting movements at Salford from 2026. PR to become DoR with assistant Kurt Haggerty taking over as head coach.
