I hope I'm wrong but given Nsemba's past comments it wouldn't be a surprise to see him off to the NRL at the earliest opportunity. What we don't know is if there are any NRL clauses in the longer term contracts that some of our players have signed recently.

I'm not concerned at all with when we played the likes of Cas, Leeds and Hull and the form they were in at the time or may be in come a couple of months time but I am concerned with how the ridiculous fixture list has been allowed to happen. We've played Cas 3 times and not played Leeds or Hull yet and all I hear on Rugby League podcasts is that loop fixtures are to blame. Loop fixtures aren't to blame for us playing one side 3 times already and no games against a couple of sides. If we take Cas as our example of a team we have a loop fixture against, we should've played them early in the season, in the middle of the season and then one towards the end. We don't have a loop fixture against Leeds, so we should've played on of our fixtures against them in the first half of the season and one in the second half. It all seems quite straightforward but it's been an absolute mess.

We don’t help the fixture format by saying don’t give us any home fixtures in April/May as we are having our pitch relayed!

It’s mid May to mid June, so while that point stands, it doesn’t explain why we’ve had so few home games from Feb to Mid May and why we’ve had to play teams multiple times. It’s not just Wigan either, teams across the league haven’t played each other yet.

Maybe its because there are quite a few teams ground share. Huddersfield, Hull, London must be a nightmare to integrate all the fixtures, pitch relaid not just us.Add Leigh and St Helens to that list.
