Thought you guys played really well today. Your defence in the first half especially was superb. Some good offloads made too playing like that i can see you guys doing quite well this season. Daniel Holdsworth impressed me today looked dangerous everytime he got the ball. I agree with Mother Feka you should make the playoffs this year playing like that.

Not sure that Mcrae's stint at saints makes Wigan fans the most unbiased of commentators

Not at all.

You could see in the warm up that Salford can ping a ball about with good speed, accuracy and fluency but despite good work by your pack it just didn't come together and the overall structure just seemed to be missing. It could be a similar situation that we had with Brian Noble.

There seems to be a new era of young, overseas coaches who have been in touch and involved with playing & coaching in the NRL in recent years who know the latest & best way to get the best out of current Rugby League players in the modern game physically, mentally and tactically.

Unfortunately, I think McRae's coaching methods are out of date and I think it would a huge, positive impact if they got coach in the same mould as Michael Maguire, Nathan Brown, Tony Smith or Brian McLennan who can bring in an extra dimension to the game.

Was happy with what I saw from the lads yesterday (after I missed the first 20 mins due to the fecking trams again! icon_evil.gif). Defensively we were excellent again and to keep Wigan to 3 tries was no mean feat although I did think the tries they scored were a touch on the soft side. We matched them up front and although I was never confident we quite had enough to win the game we gave a good account of ourselves which is all we can ask for. I think both teams looked a little tired which is understandable but the effort was tremendous. If we can match this level of performance against the mid/lower table teams then we can definitely push for a top 10 finish. Many thanks to all the complementary posts from Wigan fans on here as well, nice to see fans appreciating our efforts and may I return those sentiments to the Wigan team who, IMO, are a major threat to the Saints/Leeds dominance this year. eusa_clap.gif

Now on to Mr Coley. Now I love abusing opposition players like anyone else and feel that an element of abuse/jeering is part and parcel of the game in order to intimidate/put off other teams. I think the time has come to lay Mr Coley to rest (not in the literal meaning icon_wink.gif ). He shat on us by the manner in which he left our club and we are rightly disgruntled with him for that. He also knows he is not going to get the warmest welcome every time he retuirns to the Willows. I thought the effort a lot of fans put into abusing him in the last few minutes (when the game was lost) and after the final whistle could have been better spent praising our own team after what was a gutsy effort.

Finally, did anyone see O'Loughlin getting clocked on the side of the head by one of those stress balls at the start of the 2nd half? Now, I in no way condone "missile throwing" at players but it was a tad funny icon_biggrin.gif .

Yeah I saw it and, while I thought it was a pretty stupid thing to do, I'll admit I laughed.

Fair play to O'Loughlin for seeing the funny side of it and laughing it off.

another fantastic effort by the players making wigan play and show why they are a champions team to finish us off.

Thought we built pressure well and i dont think physically and effort wise we can ask anymore.

Lets hope we can continue in this vain of form for the weeks and months to come.
