I honestly think our pack has improved massively and are now competing for the majority of games.

Outside backs we don't come close to competing with anyone in unfortunately though.

We have nobody with pace to support any breaks we make or catch any opposition players that break our line.

Tasi was the closest to catching one of the players on a wigan break tonight, he's a prop forward for ***** sake, where were our backs?!

Not a Salford fan but can tell there is no chemistry in the team, just whacked a load of big named players in a team and expected to compete

23 - 20 - 4 Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png



It's been said many times, but I don't think MK gobbing off helps the team. It just adds extra pressure on them to perform and that'll only lead to lack of composure and confidence. He needs to shut his trap and let the team do the talking.

I agree about MK, he puts a pressure on the team every game. For me over Easter they should have targetted the Hudds game and rolled over at Leeds, instead they had a go at both and won neither, this then has a knock on effect in future fixtures.

Salford are trying to do it in every game, but teams around the 8ths spot don't seem to be able to, they are better off picking their games.

All teams take time to gell, they should never have got rid of Nobby, should have given him say 2 years, time to settle and make the team work. icon_biggrin.gifAISY:

I'm suprised at the negativity being shown after last night's game. For once, I thought there were genuine signs of improvement.

Clearly a lot of work still needs to be done, but to keep Wigan under the cosh for 40 minutes was good to see despite failing to get any points on the board in the first half.

Bearing in mind, this Wigan team, minus Green, beat Leeds last weekend.

One negative point from me though... I'm confused at the lack of creativity/flair in the final 3rd of the pitch. With the likes of Smith and Chase on the pitch you wouldn't think that this would be a huge problem, but it clearly is.

Onwards and upwards. Keep the faith!

Can anyone see an improvement in our attack since bringing in an attacking coach who people on here rave about? I'm happy for us to give Longy a go in some capacity to help him rebuild his career, but I'm not sure he's the guru he's made out to be on this front.

Trouble is, a coach can teach them and tell them how to perform certain moves. Practice them, refine them. But he has no control over major malfunctions during a game. It's up to the players to be better organised and execute with more professionalism than they are doing.

Salary cap - you're havin a laugh.:



We spent large periods of the first half camped in Wigan territory without troubling the scoreboard, before conceding 25 points in the last 41 minutes of the game. If this is seen as improvement then God help us.

I'm talking about small steps in the right direction, not strides. I thought defensively we were better, although that's not to say we were particularly good.

Personally, I think half the battle at the moment is psychological. That's seven games without a win for a team that had high expectations at the start of the season, with some fans having delusions of Grandeur.

Confidence is a key attribute which is lacking in this squad at the moment, and if we can do our best to encourage and support the players, we have half a chance of getting a few more wins under our belt.

I've got to say, I think one of your biggest reasons for not troubling the score board was Chase. I honestly believe he is extremely overrated. He can do amazing things with the ball in hand, and his work for the Salford try was excellent, but that is no good if the rest of the match he is awful, throwing bad passes and trying to do these tricks and skills that only come off once or twice a match.

I really want you guys to succeed, because I like seeing more good teams in the league, and I do believe you will get there.
If you look at sport, any team that invests big money usually takes a year or two to click.

I do believe that you would benefit greatly from getting Sneyd back if at all possible.

I've had the same thoughts myself recently.

Chase is undeniably world-class when he's having a good one. Trouble is, he doesn't have that many, at least not in a Salford shirt yet. I'm not sure I'd be happy if I was MK. I don't think he's getting enough bang for his buck at the moment.
