We look a lot better with Carmont in the team I just hope we find a good replacement when he retires.'"
Heard one or two more mentioning Matt King. Can't see it though.

| Quote: Cruncher "He makes errors, but it's a little harsh to only mention his dragging into touch. He was heavily involved in the last bunch of tries.
We can put that win entirely down to fatigue by the opposition if we want to, but that's never always the case. Besides, Rovers had plenty of possession and territory early on, but aside from that lovely kick by Dobson, they never looked like scoring. That was down to strong defence by Wigan.'"
and non existent attack from KR...lets get real here, they were as threatening as butter knife, I hate to mention our friends down the M6 again but they have set the bar this year. They can attack and would have posted more points. I hope Wigan are simply pacing themselves for the end of the year but I do not think if we played them next week we would beat them.

| Quote: Carneys Cover "sorry guys, until the last 15-20 mins we did not play well. the scoreline did not reflect Wigan playing 'great rugby'. HR played the majority of the game with two interchanges and were out on their feet. Had we given Warrington that much possession and territory they would have torn us a new ass hole...period!
'"
I disagree, I thought we were excellent throughout. KR were out on their feet because our pack (especially Mossop) completely dominated them (and it was a great hit by Tommy that put Clinton out). Our left side was ripping them apart at will all game, and our right side joined in second half.
Apart from that one, well constructed, try, they never looked scoring, despite Bentham's frustrating refereeing, yet we could easily have had another 3 or 4 with a bit more luck (and composure).

because we should compare ourselves against the best and thats them on current form, when we sit here saying how f&cking great we have been tonight when we have not a reality check is required! so if you want to ignore the fact they dont exist and we are the one and only, go ahead.
I hope we stuff em into the middle of next week but I cant see it currently.

Yes we know there are there , every frikkin thread says they are there. WE KNOW THEY ARE THERE, that does not mean we have to derail every thread and bring them into it

It's a strange contention that Hull KR's failure to score had nothing to do with Wigan's defence. But by the sound of it, your mind is made up not to be pleased by tonight's performance despite the clear improvement we've seen on the last few weeks, and the much more telling contributions from Tommy and Finchy, so I guess I'll leave it there.

oh ok, we were f*ucking amazing tonight, no one holds a torch to us,the double will be no problem, bring it on. every player 1 through 17 was awesome could not ask for more, we clearly toyed with KR effections betweeen the 10th and 65th minute.

we have played nobodys and were expected to win these games. I am not sure we have improved due to the opposition. we have some hard games coming up so I agree, we will leave it there and catch up in July.

| Yep, scored 40 points against a team who had found some form over the last few week, despite only playing for about 25 minutes. Win our game in hand and we're top, despite not playing anywhere near our capabilities this season.
May as well give the title to the Dire now.

Sheesh, it's like it has to be one extreme or the other. If Wire put in that performance you would probably be saying how it was amazing that they could be involved in such a tight game for the majority yet end up piling on the points towards the end. Wigan played well, not perfect, but vastly improved.

| I seem to say it every week but I will again, Joel will never be a centre
And we miss him at 2nd row IMO
For everyone of my opinion there is one with the opposite. Strange. Suppose time will tell
