Believe it or not I forgot the game was on (kids sick last night). I turned on with 2 minutes to play, marvelous. I had to remind my self of Southstander's pre match prediction severel times before the dissapointment wore off.
Another performance or two like that from Wigan and the blood will be in the water. Everyone will be fancying their chances to turn over the "Champions". Still, they have Hock to return, he should add some common sense, fitness, hard work and level headedness to the Wigan effort.

Wigan have a number of distinctly average players who are extremely well coached. Not a patch on the depth of quality that Warrington have. They will be better with Richards & Hock back.

I never thought I'd see the words "Hock" & "common sense" in the same sentence.

Think your sarcasm sensors need some re-alignment OF. Hock can be accused of many things, but common sense isn't one of them, and DHM knows this.

It was good to see the mercurial Wigan defence cut to shreds a number of times, it will give others confidence for when they play them.

Playing well in the big game shows the poor performances to be even more pathetic than they originally appeared, if they know how to play like that then they should do it every week!
While I hope the commitment to defence and some of our lesser forwards keep driving the ball in like they did friday we can still improve on fitness and passing the ball backwards (take note Mr Webb) - taking the two should be consigned to the bin as well
