Sean Wanes Wigan Lose again in a very important game, do they have the composure and talent to win another big game this year?

Silly mistakes, loose play and daft penalties that have been consistent all year continue.

Can we beat Cas at Home?

Unfortunately it's a very young, inexperienced team.

If we win it all this year it'll be an incredible achievement. If not it's understandable.

It's difficult to get excited about these talented players finishing 2nd/3rd in the league though because they continue to get poached by the NRL / RU.

'There's only one code of rugby.':



Defending for their second try was pathetic...

The youngsters were fantastic, I really don't think their inexperience was the key factor. Matty Bowen, with all his experience in the NRL, stood flat footed for an attacking kick on his own try line. You don't do that if you're 6'1" never mind 5'1". We had done enough to win before that.

Matty Bowen had zero protection from lazy defenders

For their second try, Gildart was complaining to someone, spinning like a top, or he would have had a much better chance to stop the try... Inexperience, play to the whistle.

Edit, My mistake it was Gelling...

We may have lost a big game like you say.But I do think over the 80 mins we was the better side on the 74 minute makinson came up with a match winning tackle and I honestly believe that is what won them the game.

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif

Over 80 minutes quite clearly Saints were the better side.

Not sure about that, you had more possession but our dodgy defence kept you at bay for most of the game. If it wasn't for that awful forward pass decision before the end, we defend like 3 or 4 less repeat sets and the win doesn't come as such a surprise. Thought it said a lot when you kicked on the 3rd despite being 10m out from our line. You ran out of ideas. I said after half time if we cut out the errors, we'd win as we look the better side, and I still feel that way.

Pretty sure that was Gelling complaining that he had been held back.

Dan Sarginson: "This is a fantastic opportunity for me to join the biggest name in the competition" 18/10/2013 Tony Clubb: "This is a new exciting chapter of my life signing for Wigan and I couldn't be happier" 18/10/2013 Romain Navarrete: “I’m very happy to have signed for Wigan Warriors. As soon I knew that Wigan were interested, they were the only team that I wanted to sign for. To me, Wigan is the biggest Club in Rugby League and it will be an honour to pull on the famous Cherry-and-White jersey next year. I look forward to working with Shaun Wane and the players at Wigan.”:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10172.jpg

It WAS a forward pass, so the decision was spot on.
Matty Bowen failed to jump, game over.

I think our tactics of running at Roby 2/3 times every set were spot on - he was absolutely screwed and did nothing with the ball.

Unfortunately we didn't have anything that resembled a last tackle play so couldn't turn out ridiculously weighted possession and field position into more points. And Bowen lost us another game.

As disappointed i was with a few things, Bowen not jumping (again) the inconsistency of the ref (for both sides) some very sloppy tackle attempts and Gelling doing what the hell he wants, in the grand scheme of things the result means nothing.

I still think we will beat Cas next week, Huddersfield will beat Leeds and we will finish top and getting the Saints re-match down here where it REALLY matters.

What a fantastic effort from the boys. Our forwards were immense and we were unlucky to lose that game.
However when you have so much pressure you have to get points on the back of it.
Saints goal line defence won that for them.
We have to find a way to get over the line from close range.
