| Quote: Newton-Le-willows-Warrior "Absolute brutal second half performance and could have been 40 if charnley could kick a goal.
Hughes was fantastic, as was Finchy and gelling was very good on the wing aswell.
If you had been offered at the start of May that we could have beat Saints, Huddersfield, Saints, Leeds, Catalan with your first choice back row missing for two games and that we are sitting at the top of the table 3 points clear and in the semi of the challenge cup I think every one of us would say yes please!
What a team we have here and there is further improvement to come.
Hopefully the lads who arent on international duty enjoy their breaks and lets all get ready for the Widnes game!
The only negative coming out of todays game was the injury to Dudson, I hope its not a broken ankle but I fear the worst. At least Preccy and Flower will be knocking on the door again shortly.'"
Hear hear. Was such a tough run in the season, ad we've won every game. We've got some easier ones on paper now but we still need to keep this form going, maybe rest a few bodies here and there in anticipation for the CC semi in mid July.

I'm certain they are; they're too professional not to. It just hasn't had time to work...yet.

I don't. I was responding to a poster who implied there wasn't much point in getting him a kicking coach as he doesn't look a natural kicker. So if the club are, then great , if not then whether or not he has a future as a goal kicker they need to do it even if it only leads to a small improvement as any improvement is going to be worth it.

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

Perhaps if you had worded this "Not addressing the issue is uncharacteristically unprofessional for Wigan"
"Not addressing the issue would be uncharacteristically unprofessional for Wigan" people may have not assumed you were being your usually negative self...

| A friend of mine watched the players train Orrell on Tuesday afternoon. Both the first team and U20's played a full-on match, the first team dressed in the Queensland Cowboys home kit, the U20's dressed in the Queensland Cowboys away kit. The U20's had been coached to play in the style of Catalans...so in effect the game was a mock "Wigan v Catalans" game, even down to the detail where Finch was shouting "Dureau" is mine...etc. This explains why they were wearing the kits (finch picture).
After the match, Josh spent twenty minutes with Harris and was knocking them over from in front of the posts and the touchline, he was struggling to kick the easier ones - 10/20 metres to the LHS/RHS side of the posts.
He was heard to say "I must just get nervous when it comes to the easier kicks that people expect me to convert, yet when it comes to the touchline ones, I feel more relaxed as I'm not expected to kick them".
Richards was light-training apparently, let's hope he's back soon.
