| We lack mental strength.
A properly prepared team would have scored 40+ points last night and conceded none.
I remember Shaun Edward giving an interview after Wigan won by something like 60 points at Wakefield. He basically said that fixtures like that should be prepared for as if they are cup finals. Once the contest is over, they have to be used as opportunities to get as many points on the board as possible.
That's one of the reasons why Shaun Edwards's Wigan always finished top of the league, and Brian Noble's Wigan never get anywhere near.
To switch off at half-time, just because you're 20 points up, is unforgivable. Yet this Wigan team do it time and again, and never seem to learn that it's a mistake. Again, it's a fault that can be traced back to poor coaching.

Agree with all of that, but I would also point the finger at the captain as well for letting it happen on the pitch.

I care about the performance. I go to watch the rugby because I enjoy the game. Whilst we did come away with the two points, it was hardly the most exciting of wins.
Rugby for me isn't always about the two points, it's about keeping me entertained and enthusiastic. This hasn't happened since the Saints game at Murrayfield.
The first 20 minutes were clinical. The rest was an absolute bore to watch.

I seem to remember in the days of the 'Jugernaught' bradford teams, they never used to switch off. Think this is more to do with attitude from the players than coaching. As switching off isnt exactly a new thing for Wigan teams is it.

Where were his feet when he jumped? That may have been it because his foot may have been on the whitewash from what I saw of it, and you are only as good as where you last touched the ground.
