In hindsight, Wigan should of known it wouldn't work as Wire did it 3 times last week and still lost.....

| Quote Grimmy="Grimmy"It's a footnote now, but does anyone agree with us going for 2 when we were 6-2 down near their line? I thought it was a waste of field position, still left us needing to score and basically said to an already-confident Saints "We don't think we can score a try even from here."'"
Thought that was a dreadful decision that gave a really poor message.
Both Wire and Wigan in recent weeks have told the Saints defence they think it is too strong for them early on in games.

It wasn't the right decision. But we wouldn't have scored.

I thought it was the right decision at the time, bringing it back to 6 - 4.
The two decisions for Saints 1st try were wrong.
1) The pass to Makinson was a good metre forward but, 2) the play should have been stopped just before that as Leuluai was being attended to by the doctor with a head injury. I thought that protocol was introduced this season?

Was it just me or were our medical team hugely naive? They got him to move the ten yards to the side of the pitch rather than just getting him to lie down.
It was on the side we were stood we couldn’t believe it.

Not seen it back but I was sat in line with the Makinson pass and thought it was fine at the time.

I called it forward at the time. I've seen it back and it is forward. Wouldn't have made any difference to the result though!

but by taking 2 you relieve pressure, the second one we should have taken the tap and built pressure on them. Some very poor decision making and leadership

We've had quite a few teams now who have opted for the 2 points they also kick for touch on the last tackle when this happens its as though they want a breather and gives us that mental edge, we quite often up the tempo in defence and attack to control the game on our terms.

| Always seems to be that 'taking the two' is a fashion: if one team does it , other follows suit. We see that in the NRL, and SL too. Few years ago it was a rarity, now it's commonplace.
