| I agreed with the gist of what both coaches said in their after match interviews:
Powell saying that Wigan gave Wire a lesson in how to play in wet conditions.
Peet saying that Wigan's game plan was to play off the back of Harry Smith's kicking game, which was very good, and the whole team was committed to chasing & defending on that basis.
Perhaps the occasion, and expectation of the big crowd, got to the Wire players a little and they overplayed and forced a few too many passes, which lead to mistakes, which suited Wigan who were happy to be very conservative with the ball and try to grind out a low scored win, which they did.

It was mate until someone raised the question about Miski and the GF, you are being selective about what you read and comment on.

Do you think it might be something to do with the fact that our two teams have just played a game or that we're posting on an open forum on a thread entitled "tonight's game v Wigan"? I reckon it's a possibility. What say you?
And what's with the 'mate'? It's a perfectly ordinary way to address someone here In the rest of the world, even if it's seemingly unusual in your neck of the woods. Now you've seen it being used perhaps it won't seem so noteworthy the next time you come across it.
You really are quite a strange person, aren't you?

| Quote: wirecation "I keep hearing the calls for Mcguire to start prop rather than Kasiano but the fact is he is not a prop and has barely played many minutes this season as it is. To me there is no reason why Kasiano could not start. I agree he is best suited as an impact prop but St Helens Wolf’s post has it spot on. out 1-13 is arguably nearly full strength and we struggled from the off. Wigan had the better game plan full stop. There is some right guff talked on here about the players we have missing. If any of those had played on friday night i have no doubt the result would have been the same.'"
McGuire is listed as a prop on your website so Powell and the club must think he is. What would concern me is the lack of cover you have in the backrow.

| Maybe that's why we have him the 13 shirt for this season.
He's a loose forward covering prop because he can play there too.

Tell Powell and Fitzpatrick to change the website. There is no such thing as a loose forward in modern rugby he is a ‘middle’.
