The Communist Cap - dragging down success and aspiration to the levels of those who cba.: |

| Quote: stillinthepast "People on here who have been saying for weeks that as long we finish in the top 4 are deluded, Wigan are showing the worst run of form for the last few years.
Maybe Wane is compensating for the amount of flack he received last season by going out to win every match, now he seems to be going over the top by continually changing the team, often citing niggles to certain players (when in the past he would say players play with knocks every week).
Wane said a couple of weeks ago that players would have to fight for their places to gain a place for Wembley, being honest how many players from the last few matches can you say will walk into the final team.
People on here tonight are blaming the forwards, but for me it is the total lack of ideas from the halfbacks.
No flair, creative ideas or any thing from the halfbacks during the last few weeks, I am not blaming Powell as much because this halfback problem has been with Wigan for weeks. It just seems to be collect the ball and then a flat pass to a forward, whereas tonight the Hudds halfbacks put us to the sword.
Finally Sam, for the last few games when he has missed a match the club have announced that he is fully fit (in tonight's Manchester Evening News Sam is quoted as saying that he is fully fit and raring to go) only to announce an hour before the kick off that he is out with a sudden niggle.
This could mean one of three things.
1, Wigan are being honest and it only looks suspicious.
2, Wigan are telling porkies just to keep the ticket sales up.
3, Sam is carrying a serious injury and he is being wrapped in mothballs for the big matches, or to protect any future value if /or when he goes.'"
Our problems are obvious.
Our halves are tripe and we rely on Sam (a once in a decade player) to inject that bit of sparkle to cover for them.
Now, onto our form.
Either Wane has learned from last year and is resting players in (ultimately) meaningless games such as tonight, OR he has been forced into the situation and it's showing just how thin our squad is. |

There's evidence to suggest Wane can't get Wigan winning without Sam Tomkins in the team. This is a major concern.

Not sure if there's any legs to it but a bloke was telling me in the Red Robin that Tomkins has had a fallout with Wane over his move to Aus/NZ so Wane has refused to play him in anymore League games but he will play at Wembley.

Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png |

He had a cracking game again. Mossop has done nothing for a long time, way before his move was announced. On current form, as well as his form over the last couple of seasons, he is no great loss. I have said for the last few seasons that our pack is lacking and it still is. Hansen and Farrell as a 2nd row combination are too similar and we still lack genuine, enforcer style props. |

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

It's easy to be critical of players who are leaving and to suggest that they are not giving 100%. But Mossop, for whatever reason, does not seem to be as effective this season. |

As I said it is nothing to do with him leaving, he has been just as poor for a long time and was poor last season. He has never really fulfilled his potential imo. |
