Quote: WersYourMylerGone "Credit to everyone for getting the game on yesterday. Shame the weather ruined the attendance. Haven't been that cold at a match for a while! Couldn't believe how poor Wigan looked yesterday. I know its only a pre season game but in attack they had little go forward and barely got near our line all game! Squad depth is going to be a problem for them it seems.'"
Just glad they managed to get the game on because when I woke up on Sunday morning I just thought there was no chance.
I don't like friendly games because from my experience they really give you little indication of how players will perform when the season starts for real, I have been to many of these games when players either look fantastic or rubbish but when the actual season starts they can turn out the opposite.
Having said that I think that with all the changes at Wigan in terms of players leaving and the new players coming in many Wigan supporters are feeling a little anxious right now. The new half-back combination is obviously going to be important and Blake Green seems to be an unknown to many supporters (myself included). I think a lot may also rest on how Scott Taylor performs too with the departure of Jeff Lima to Souths who I think was an important player for Wigan.
The match on the 8th of February will tell us a lot more about how good or how poor Wigan will be in 2013.
