Jesus Christ Lomax needs to get his act together. Faking a punch rolling round on the floor tonight, he’s a joke

Micky Mac rolling back the years! Interesting listening to the Sky podcast last week, with Wilkin saying he gave him literal sleepless nights and absolutely bullied him. There haven’t been many players as underrated for me (especially among Saints fans).

Sam and Micky still the best. If we don’t win the GF I’d love Catalans to do it.

Wigan, Catalan & Saints are the best 3 teams by a mile .

WW69?

Not just that goof. That's what they all say when they get beat. They can't face the fact that they are coming back to the pack rapidly.

Were not in the top 3 maybe 4th. 5th. I’d say Leigh or Warrington are better than us

I’d always thought Wigan did the right thing letting Micky go and promoting Powell whose was younger. Micky looked like he was going to regress.

Fast forward 6 years and he’s still the best.

If he’d stayed he’d been in his 17th season at Wigan

I think finishing in the top 2 is essential for Wigan to have a slim chance. Can't for the life of me see our forward pack being able to match St Helens or Catalans with a hostile crowd behind them.

Wanes teams had bad defeats too . We will be there when it matters

The way Wire were playing before last weekend, they wouldn’t have got close to Wakey last week (not that it makes it better mind).

Leigh are having a better season than us but they’re not a better team, not by a long way. Ups and downs in the weekly rounds don’t count for a fat lot.

Obviously gutted coming out of the ground last night especially when we nearly won it in the dying seconds but all things considered I'm not overly concerned. That was like a play off game last night but put Batchelor, Sironen and Makinson back in that side and we will be fine.

Losing Roby and Percival during the game and the impact on the interchanges was just a step too far against a big physical Catalan side.

We still look very clunky in attack and devoid of ideas at times, relying on Lomax or Welsby producing some magic and the fact that we have already lost the same amount of games this season as all of last season isn't great. The quality of SL is struggling though when we are still where we are in the league despite this.

On the plus side Dodd looks to be coming back to form, certainly taking the line on more and looks like his confidence is coming back and I thought Delaney was outstanding against such a huge experienced pack. I've spoken about him for a while and I think at 19 he has great potential to be a superb forward. Needs to fill out considerably but his engine and the way he carries gives him a great future.

Leigh next week will be full of energy and are the form team in the comp but in a knockout game played at a high intensity we may hopefully still have too much for them. A lot depends on if the 3 I mentioned above are all back as worryingly Wellens doesn't sound 100% that it will happen.

The 2 extra days rest certainly help as Leigh play on Sunday.
