Agree that Deacon made a couple of errors today but in fairness came up with the match winning pass to Farrell. deacs may be getting "long in the tooth" but he is at least 3 times the player that Finch is (who was again missing in action) Surely its time for a taxi?

Thought Finch was fine today. He missed a kick or two, but otherwise linked up play quite well. Still more to come from him though.

Deacon was outstanding today . for me anyway

I couldn't care less how many mistakes Deacon makes per game as long as we win.

Lets not forget people that deacs is only human and everyone makes mistakes experienced or not its a fact of human life

It was Finchs kick to the corner that Gardner put dead that gave us the field position to set up the winning try.

i thought Finch made a couple of decent tackles, and the kick that Rogues mentions that set us up for the try. Deacon did make a couple of mistakes but who doesn't?

Yes, lets get rid quickly, after all he's a pivotal player coming back from an injury trying to play in a new team that has spent most of this season being under par. Just wish we'd got rid of Richards after his start to his Wigan career, just think of the money we'd have saved...

Be a bloody expensive taxi, that - three year's worth of contract.

Seriously, people ought to think before they post this sort of thing.

Another one I heard today was "Finch is crap - Lenagan should bin him off."

I had this vision in my mind's eye of IL hiring a hit-man to top him and then dump him in a dustbin. It would certainly be less expensive.

It was Lima and Finch who should be binned off back to Aus and "get the kids in" at half time near me. We really do have an embarrassing amount of knee jerk, know nowt, s, who change like the wind.

Bang on mate. Some of the e i heard in the stands today about finch was embarrassing. Come on here after a great derby win, and people are still having a p1ss and moan now! Will never be happy.

Finch wasnt a state of origin player for nothing. Expecting him to light the place up after 4 or 5 games is ridiculous. I thought he had a much better game today. Linked up much better and tried out some different passes.

As for Deacs, his kicking game was great today, plus the match winning pass and regardless of his size, he will throw himself about and tackle anything. Glad he was back.

Deacon is up there with Carmont as competing for the "most undervalued player" award.

If I have one worry about this season it's that MM will use Deacon without bringing anyone on for next season.

deacon organises the team!
its no real surprise that our defeats often come without him in the team.
saints had done the research on him and had 4 men on him the whole time.
much better than finch,

just watched the replay and deacons pass to faz to put him in the hole simply class and it won us the game

I've seen a fair few Wigan games this season and Deacon makes a massive difference, the way you were moving the ball wide yesterday with him in the team was much more effective than when he hasn't been there, and apparently you were much better at KR last week with him in the team. To knock him for the odd individual mistake whilst completely ignoring the way he makes you tick in attack is poor.
