Am I the only person who isnt excited. Its early in the season and we have just scraped past a team who couldnt even beat Widnes.........................................................






Oh, hang on, its Wigan

For those questioning Sam as a team player I'm guessing it's simply based on last night? He's been excellent at creating tries for others this season and acting as an extra playmaker as well as a runner.

On one occasion he made a good break and had Hock in support down the middle but covered by a couple of players and Richards supporting down the left. The only sensible pass was one to Richards but with Richards carrying an injury he wouldn't have made 10 yards with the ball before being tackled, so keeping hold was the right thing to do.

Strange that we haven't seen a couple of our goon loving friends on here.

I only saw the 2nd half. I thought we played well in defence and are not hitting top form yet. Wigan looked very dangerous on the break and the result could have gone either way. Wigan do seem a little negative when they get down into the 20 meter zone.

The game was great spectacle. I've read a few posts saying "we didn't deserve it". We defended brilliantly and put in a tough, gritty performance. I think Wigan were unlucky to be on the losing side again and couldn't really have complained if they'd have won. But it was a throughly well deserved win. The frightening thing is that we have so much to improve on.

I agree. It was a great game, highly entertaining but I think both teams were way off their best. Both Wigan and Warrington made a lot of mistakes and are much better than what they showed last night imo. I actually think that Warrington will get a lot more from that game than Wigan but in the end either team could have won it and it will be great to see who wins the games when they really matter.
