| ....To exclude match winner Sam Tomkins from tonights match! Nobby has made some good calls recently but i feel he made a bad mistake in tonights team selection that left the team with less attacking options from the bench..

before the match i would have said yes.
But tim smith was non existant for me tonight, the 3 repeat sets on there line we had nothing was produced.
For me tonight, we missed a sinfield who can put the massive bombs up in the air and put pressure on the defence. Kicking from dobson was the difference between the two teams.

| Some of our Aussie superstars dont like the rain, I bet Sam played most of his footy in it.
I would have played him.

So he was, hindsight can't be used to slate the guy.
Riddell and Smith both didn't turn up tonight for 98% of the game.

they are men of wigans best
a team that plaaayed, the wigan way
and won the championship in may
jim sullivan, he was the king
brian mctigue and johnny ring
a team that plaaayed the wigan way
and won the championship in may
when eric ashton was alive
and billy boston by his side
with dave bolton and billy blan
oh what a time to be a fan
in 85, at wem-ber-ly
john ferguson and brett kenny
a team that plaaayed the wigan way
and won the challenge cup in may
in 95 we won them all

| Noble was completely wrong.
Why change a winning team?
Why bring in someone who is absolutely nowhere near full fitness?
A great reward for Sams match clinching try last week

Sam looked like he needed a rest. To me, that is Riddell at full fitness. The issue isn't his fitness, its his application on the field, he failed in that regard today.

i didnt slate him, or at least i didnt mean to. Sam looked shattered during the wakefield game, i was just meaning that smith disappointed tonight and that was a big contribution as to why we lost.

I didnt mean you fella. Was making the point generally before the witchhunt begins.
Smith threw another world class pass for lockers first try, that aside, he was poor. Was back to his own thing at times with kicks and plays that were never on.

I totally agree, he needs to be rested now and again!! After tonight I think Hock is due a rest.... Can't risk him getting an injury!

| Wrong move.
Why did Mark Riddell merit a place in the squad after the way Sam Tomkins has been playing?

| It was the wrong decision imo - the kid has played off the bench or the past few weeks, and could have done so tonight so fatigue shouldn't be an issue - if it is ease him off in training during the week.

Sam is the match winner from the bench, Riddel isnt, bad call and the result was part of that..

| We will never win anything as long as Noble is in charge just swans round all the Auses.
Look at Morgan been in charge of Hull K R about the same time as Noble and look what he as achieved
