Quote: Bunkaib "Great game yesterday, watching it back twice now already.

Not flawless but very good, Thewlis kicking out on the full and not kicking a penalty dead. In another game would maybe have cost us but can forgive him that. I'd be tempted to give him the catalans game off to give a weeks healing to that head wound, put Wrench on the wing, don't know who would kick though.'"


Thewlis is getting a lot of head knocks and now two nasty cuts. I agree a rest on the basis of duty of care.

Quote: Boss Hog "Hard to believe he is at the coaching level he is at now, given he was given the boot by Tony Smith and later Wigan did the same.

He seems to have turned his life around since those days.'"


Agreed - from what I remember TS was right to get rid of him at the time, but it shows that if you do give people a 2nd chance they can redeem themselves.
It was the same with Lee Briers - and after listening to a podcast he did some time ago I can fully understand and appreicate how and why things got out of hand, and have massive respect for him turning things around.

Going back to Gleese, I am really suprised how well he has developed as an attack coach in a relatively short space of time (including his previous stints in RU). It makes me wonder what our previous attack coaches were doing.....

Quote: just_browny "Pace and width. With Ashton and Thewlis on either flank, the opposition has to hold its width in defence. By virtue of them holding their width, there are bigger gaps in the middle of the park for Dufty and Williams to exploit. It's really simple but leads to very attractive rugby. They are also weapons that, sadly, Wigan have too. Tactics for the final will be fascinating.'"


Watching Wigan vs Hull KR, they don't half compress their defence, especially in the opponents half. I think they will be vulnerable if we can shift it wide at pace like we did against Saints and Huddersfield.

I also like the idea of high kicks to Field.

Going to be interesting to see how it pans out. We are rightly underdogs - just as we like it.

Shifting it wide has worked against everyone so far, even catalans big pack.

We're gonna have to work hard to contain nsemba, though you can see fitz and dufty giving him some work in defence.

Tai in defence could be a worry,

Quote: ChiswickWire "I'd say we under utilise the kick to King option these days!'"


I said this to my dad the other week, King is a different player now evidently cus we never kick to him anymore. But now that even the BBC's dream team on Sunday has noticed our latest 4th-tackle "give it to Dufty" ploy, maybe you're right we bring back the kick to King option!

I like Nsemba he’s big unit, good hard runner on the edges, his defence at times looks iffy. Has the odd penalty in him as well.. Wigan have got two very good seconds in Walter’s and Nsemba
