The problem was that his lack of attention, changed the momentum of the game and almost lost it for us. I know it is harsh, but that is why experience makes the difference. Didn't think we would pull it back after that, but well done Wigan!! I just wish we would stop blowing it when we look like having the game won.

Sums it up perfectly.

Of course we're all over the moon we won in the way we did but I'm still frustrated that the game was even in the balance in the last minute. You shouldn't be getting mistakes like that from a man of Deacon's experience.

First half he was poor, but second half came good...

Our best kicking game of the season so far. Deacs played well for me. Wasn't expecting the ball when it hit him on the head, he was organising the next play. Ref got it wrong and that changed the game.

He doesn't have the pace any more, but I thought he suffered with not having Gleeson alongside him. There's a player that defends well, allowing Deacon to come in as second tackler, rather than have to commit on his own.

Deacon won us the game and has been the missing link in our team.

Since when has the hooter not signalled the end of play? That was an even better one from Silverwood, and he never got taken to task for that decision either.

Couple of mistakes from an otherwise brilliant game he had.

Everyone makes them, good players make up for them like Deacon did.

Whilst not a huge fan of Deacon as a player in his own right he does have a positive influence on the team when he is on the field and the team has a much better balance to it when he is one of the half backs. I dont think any of our other half back combinations that have been without Deacon have really worked this season.

Agree that Deacon made a couple of errors today but in fairness came up with the match winning pass to Farrell. deacs may be getting "long in the tooth" but he is at least 3 times the player that Finch is (who was again missing in action) Surely its time for a taxi?

Thought Finch was fine today. He missed a kick or two, but otherwise linked up play quite well. Still more to come from him though.
