45658_1356296105.jpg [color=#FF0000:1fnfdzuc]Wigan vs Leeds finals aggregate score.
Wigan 178 - 64 Leeds
Wigan wins - 6 Leeds wins - 0[/color:1fnfdzuc]
I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubblegum.
Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight!

| Just got back now and what can I say, talk about bored, the general lack of ideas and loss of direction was atrocious. Hull were bad but god did we try and match them, after watching that it's no surprise when I look back how we lost to wakey and cas early on in the season when we respect are opponents like we did tonight.
We vary rarely ever post big scores against other teams and when we totally disrespect teams below us in the table like we did tonight it's no surprise, while others such as Leeds and Saints rack up big scores because they go into each and every game with the utmost respect for the opposition.
But credit to some players I thought the following gave there all.
Amos
Sam
Joel
Pat
Prescott
Feka
Phelps
Tommy
And finally Carmont, god knows how we'll ever replace him the guy's walking around on one foot yet he's still head and shoulders above most other centre's in the league.
Final part of my rant:
If we want some success in the play-off's can we please have some ideas in attack.
End

| I had no real excitment going to the game and the game itself didn't do much to brighten me up.
Hull tried hard and we went through the motions for the majority of the 80 minutes. We had some decent preformers and showed some individual brilliance again from certain players.
We need to be and can be alot better come the big games in a couple of weeks.
Roll on the play offs.

| Second most boring game of the season after Bradford away. I guess Hudds next week might be a bit of a snore fest too if it's a dead rubber. Bring on the play offs!

That sums up my view very well, particularly Carmont who I thought was our best player by a mile. He certainly didn't disrespect the opposition and was as professional as ever. Our attack was very poor and out I think I would remove TL form your list of players who did well as I thought he was anonymous most of the game (particularly the first half) which contributed to our one dimensional attack .
I think we really need McIllorum back as he is another with the right attitude which would probably mean one of Mossop or Flannagan to miss out but I think we would be a better side with him back.
The pre match entertainment from that choir must have sent the players to sleep because that first half hour was down there with the worst of the games we have played this season. Thank God for Sam Tomkins and Fekas tries to put a smile on the fans faces as it was all very laboured.
Sat in the car the man on GMR asked was that a performance of a team likely to trouble the top two in the play offs? He then went on to make the excuse it was a bit end of term type play and players tried things they may otherwise have not. Whatever, the net result wasn't good to watch.

| Summed up pretty well really, Carmont was outstanding today, i wish he was 24 and we could have him for alot more years to come.
Poor defending at times but i've seen enough of our defence this year which gives me confidence that we can tighten it up for the playoffs.
What really stood out for me today is how much more better we play as a team when Tommy is at 9. I dont know whether thats because Riddell was underperforming today or whether Tommy just has no idea at 7 but at 9 he is just pure class.

| Its a Noble team. Entertainment is irrelevant, just focus on the business end of the season and use overpaid Aussies over youthful enthusiasm and passion every time.

Agreed, I would say it's a little bit of both, Tommy's clearly a 9 yet we play him at 7 because we have no one else to put there, and Piggy well what can be said, I want to give the guy the benefit of the doubt and try and convince myself that he'll come good but so far I've been nothing but disappointed with him.

I thought Roberts had a good game tonight. Chuckle all you want, Riddell was poor.

| I didn't think it was a poor game but it was very flat and Wigan didn't need much to beat Hull - which says a lot about them at the moment.

how was he poor? I haven't said he had a good/bad game, just that people need to look more closely. I didn't think he had a bad game at all but by no means was he poor. We was more dominant when we had both Feka and Fielden on the pitch which is also when Tommy was on the pitch, it makes it alot easier for the hooker/backs to look good then when the forwards get a roll on. Which by the way I'm surprised Fielden hasn't got a mention, I thought he went very well in making some good yards, winning the ground on every occasion and making some good offloads. I'm glad to see that he's put 3 back to back good performances in ready for the playoffs.

I'm not one of Riddell's knockers but I didn't even notice he was playing till about the 60 minute mark. Maybe that was down to talking and being bored out my skull so I wasn't paying attention. Snoozefest and a half last night. Thank the Lord for Sam Tomkins the only entertainment on show.
I'll put it down to having the week off and it being a bit of a dead rubber game but we are going to have to seriously pick it up going into the play-offs.
