I thought that was supposed to be a semi-final. No Wigan intensity AT ALL.
When Wigan had a ptb, Leeds were all over them like a rash.
When Leeds had a ptb, Wigan dawdled upto them, like they weren't interested (virtually all through the match). i.e. a beaten pack.
Yes, I know we battered most teams out of the water, last season, but our pack was rarely "defeated". Wigan played like that, until about 6 weeks ago.
Bar the Cats "whooping" 2 weeks ago, Wigan's pack has been about as effective as Swinton's, since we walloped 'em, on 11 August'"
i think the wigan pack relys on him getting quick play the balls and putting the defending team on the backfoot.... that also makes finch look good....without him they couldn't do that.... their forwards looked static and flat. Leeds coped easily with the likes of hock and lima.
they spent most of the game being turned around by sinfield and they had no answer.
wane had no game plan at all.
