Of course he’s better than Patton- he’s been pretty good the last few weeks. Not his biggest fan but losing today wasn’t his fault, honest. We lost because of lack of composure, poor execution and decision making, not because Stef didn’t play.

Burgess must be so disappointed that they went into headless chicken mode when his coaching team will have been running drills with them for months.

The players need to have a good look at themselves and come back next week & perform as they should.

Usual fayre from the Wire, start off like a house on fire, all the fans think it's their year then it all goes tit's up half way through the season

Thanks for your insightful comments, much appreciated.

The Pulitzer Prize is in the post.

Ha ha that tit has gone straight on to my ignore list

Funny ain’t it. Always get bellends giving it large after a loss who wouldn’t have messaged prior. Mad what A beer can do.

Perspectice please, hardly tits up. We were beaten finalists in the 2024 challenge cup. Beaten by a very good Wigan side. 12 other SL teams wished they could be at Wembley.

Especially for the misplaced apostrophe.

So tit's is really spelt tits?

No you got this wrong

It’s “you’re” you’re mums got a whiffy kipper.

Just read the no try that took an age for the video ref to decide on was not a double movement which it clearly was but for not grounding correctly.

Anyways today as gone now and hopefully we get to the Grand Final and we have learned from today.

Disappointing to watch today. Wigan were no great shakes in attack baring a couple of bits from French. We just couldn't match their intensity. Their defence is top notch and reminds me of Saints a few years ago under Woolf. They just defend you out of the game along with an excellent kicking game. Then take their chances when they come along. I think a lot were expecting a free flowing attacking game from both sides but it was basically a grind all the way through and we came off second best. The second half was marginally better but at no point did we ever look like coming back even with the Dufty try.
One thing i don't think we have compared to Wigan is size in the back row and i think it showed today.
As disappointing as it was today. We only lost by 10 to a great well coached Wigan side. I'd have been more embarrased if Wigan racked up a cricket score as would have happened in years gone by. We have plenty of grit and effort to stay in there. Just not always the game smarts to get us through.

King won't like watching the video back. That shoot out of the line to nail French and then miss was not his finest moment.

Ashton has had better games - knocking on playing the ball is all about composure. Brainless penalties from Bullock.

Abysmal kicking game.

But Wigan fully deserved the win. Our completion rate and errors ensured we would not challenge, and we have something to learn from (again).

Ps I really hope we have another pack signing for 2025
