Quote: Cruncher "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.'"
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.
