The ref obviously saw it so if was as bad as you say red would have been automatic and Isa would have been facing an 8 match ban.'"
I’ve no idea why the officials did not take action. Everyone else, spectators, viewers, commentators saw it.

| Isa should have been sent off. No question. The ref bottled it. And the appalling penalty count was down to Wigan players not the ref. This is the worst Wigan team that I have seen since the Millward era. Even the team that got relegated in the early 80’s played better than our current team and I supported them to the hilt home and away. But I don’t feel at all inspired to get off my couch to go and watch this lot. I don’t think that I can bring myself to watch them on SKY on Wednesday - Leeds will know exactly how to beat us. Its probably a little early to say that our season is over as we are still in the top 6 but it is looking increasingly likely that we soon won’t be. And I don’t blame Lam completely- he was dealt a bad hand by Leneghan and Radlinski - Edwards saw that 18 months ago, hence his decision to walk away. But, although I like the guy, Adrian Lam is clearly out if his depth and can’t even get the best out of seasoned international players. I expect changes soon or else we can say goodbye to any more trophies.

| Stats such as below hammer hone what we’re all saying;
5 - The amount of Wigan play the balls in Saints 20
1 - The amount of Wigan play the balls in Saints 10
8 - The closest Wigan got to the Saints tryline in metres.

If I remember correctly the closest we got to the Saints line was off the back of two set restarts and we went for the conversion.

Don’t even get me started on that. I was furious at the time and still am now. Smacked of desperation not to be nilled.

Blew my mind going for two there at 6-0 down. We might as well have waved the white flag there and then.

I’m sure I could hear the Saints end collectively laughing

As we got the penalty I jokingly shouted "Two" but was horrified when they actually went for it.
Two points last night made me think we are going to get stuffed.

That conversion.

I'd never go for goal at 6-0 down because of the obvious mathematical reason - you needed a try and you will still need a try, but I especially wouldn't do it in that game where the opposition are heavy favourites. We needed to take that chance and grow in confidence, maybe put some doubt in their minds that they will have it all their own way. Instead we basically said "We can't score a try against you even with a full set of 6 from 10 metres out."

| I’d rather we got nilled than took the 2. It’s embarassing and to do it when we’re on their line at 6-0 down is as baffling as it is unforgivable

I’d like to know what’s the deal with Bateman being on the bench. If he’s fit enough for the bench, then surely he’s fit enough to start now, considering he’s played a couple off the bench already.
It really is a sign of just how appalling Lam is that guys like Bateman and Hastings will have never hit top gear under him. Hastings is a cracking player, he carries us at times but we can’t kid ourselves that we’ve seen his best.

| It's been stated elsewhere that it is Matty Peet currently running the show and Lam is just the icing on the cake, this has been mentioned by somebody who is friends with a lot of players and staff, If so then Lammy has been ted upon from a great height

Did the Oxford Utd fan tell you that?

I don’t buy this, certainly on a match day. Peet stands there with his arms behind his back all game and it’s O’Loughlin running on, passing the messages on from upstairs when he gets the headphones off the guy who I don’t know.

Maybe the messages are coming from Peet and the guy with the headphones just has music on?
