Quote: St pete "Even so, I'm surprised you couldn't open us up more. We had wingers at fullback, centres on the wing, Backrow in centre etc.'"


We're off form for sure and the win was built on determination and guts. Even so I still think any team would have struggled to really play an expansive game yesterday and cut a team up. Most of the time we weren't willing to take the chance of pushing the ball wide.

It makes the win all the sweeter that we had to play up the middle which is something Saints would have wanted (I know your fans did in the build up to the game).

Quote: DaveO "We are not going to win many games by scoring just 12 points. The frustrating thing is we seem to get into the oppositions 20m area a lot but then have no clue what to do. Did we even try at any point in the game the same move Saints put on for LMS to score when they did?'"


Going by the Wigan website we didn't even score 12.

According to the Sky Sports Score Centre and Sky Sports website Mossop kicked the conversion after Manfredi's try and Smith converted after Burgess's try.

Quote: moto748 "And if we're making comparisons with the NRL, the biggie for me is the faster ptb. If it was policed here as it is there, the game would be a much better spectacle'"

It may surprise you to learn that the average tackle time is actually slightly faster in SL than the NRL has been getting marginally quicker each season since 2012

Yes, it would surprise me very much. Before this season, I might have agreed with you. But this year...?

Quote: Orrell Legion "But for their injuries, before and during the game, Saints would have walked it'"


Not sure about walked it but I'd agree we were one or two halfbacks away from a win for sure. Our forwards put us in the right position time and time again but we had no creativity or guile to make the most of it.

I'm surprised we stayed in the game for as long as we did give the personnel on show for both teams.
