| I thought it was a very determined effort from our boys - not the best by any standard but more than enough to see off a very determined Harlequins team.
David Howell's elbow on Sam Tomkins was nothing short of disgusting IMHO.

David Howell was disgusting, completely unprovoked. TBH a punch would have been less disgusting imo.
Thought Amos Roberts tonight was fantastic in particular, has grown in confidence the last few games and i believe we are genuinely starting to see the player we expected.
Also thought Riddell was improved, but the stand out players were Roberts, Bailey and Carmont.

Agreed. AR is turning into a great player for us, Bailey was solid from start to finish and was involved in someway in nearly every try.
Thought it was an all-round good team performance, not many stand-outs but I'm pleased to see that finally we seem to be working as one unit.

| First of all, what a boring game.
Secondly, I thought Lockers, S. Tomkins and Tommy played very well as did Phelps and Bailey.
To finish with, Ganson didn't do much wrong and finally, I would like to ask the woman sat in front of me to douse herself in something more fragrant than the cheap perfume crap she had one. My lips went dry from the aroma.

| Good for 15 minutes very average at best for the rest against a very poor Quins. Seemed to be a case of typical Noble tactics, we went out there did enough to win the game then simply shut up shop and let them come back at us.
Locky was superb again easily the best player on the pitch, Bailey was very good as was Roberts.
Pryce still flatters to decieve showed his power on a few occasions in defence and going forward but is so badly unfit it is ridiculous, questions need to be asked of the staff as to how he has been allowed to get in that shape, he is blowing too much to get in the right positions or help out more on the drives.
Over all very dull game but a decent win for Wigan, again ther game tonight highlights the bigger issues with the SL.

39110_1363272058.jpg Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good

sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go

| We were great first half and went off second.
To only win 16-6 in 40 mins against 12 men was rather poor tbh. The win was all we needed though so I am happy.
Great effort and there was some very positive performances.

| Both the last 2 home games against Quins tonight and before them the Mighty Salford have been very similar in that they've been all but won after 20 mins which has led to the rest of the game being scrappy and not the best to watch.
I'd settle for it every week to be fair though

Not to mention all the shocking knock on calls and forward passes from both teams.

Trust me I know Ganson (very well).
Not unexpected but woeful.

you run and let someone elbow you in your face and see if you milk it.
I thought that tomkins was very lucky to not get seriously hurt, cheekbone could easily have gone there imo.
