Sandow has no dummy runner options and is playing behind a pack which is too soft. What can he do? Sims was the only one out there to give it to them. Even Benny Westwood seems to have taken a back seat and apart from Currie (proud that he stood up to Tompkins like he did) we were totally bullied.

Sandow will be great for us if we sort our forwards out. We desperately need another big aggressive forward. I'd go for Cory Paterson straight away. He may get a few cards but it'll give the aggressive backup we need for our younger players to give it some. Sims was the only one to do that and he can't fight a hunting aggressive pack like Wigan's on his own. I think Westwood knew as well that there was only Sims out there capable of mixing it, hence he didn't go in aggressively because it would be him and Sims v at a fully charged pie pack.

Key for me is Morley- a great leader and pack leader being replaced by Assotasi who is the total opposite. He's not only been a poor performer for us, but badly influenced the team spirit in the dressing room. The supposed big replacement and enforcer has more than let us down.

BSW. That is part of our problem. We only have one Thug...Westwood.
Pies have shed loads of them. Bateman, Farrell, Flower, Mikey Mac...and more.

I think this season has been a learning curve, even for the great TS. He looked gutted in the interview and he knows change is needed, hence all the new signings for next year. Everyone makes mistakes. This season will make TS a better coach for next year.

I actually thought the Wigan pack called Sims' bluff. he was taken off after the handbags in the first half, but after his altercation in the second half he didn't take a carry for about ten minutes.

He's been our second best player behind Hill in my opinion.

His stats this season are almost identical to his 2013 stats. Last year was a stand out year, he might only reach those levels a couple of times again in his career.

I agree, but Sims didn't stand down. He seemed to have a breather but then did a full on charge into the forwards. Sims didn't anyone backing him up. There was no one else in that Wire side in the second half looking to put any aggression I to the tackle what so ever so it must have felt like 3 on one most of the time. Even Benny didn't put any crunchers in.
