THE ONE AND ONLY "LATICS" , Ronnie Blair scorer of the goal that wasn't given Oldham Athletic v Man Utd 28th Dec 1975 "Nothing changes":41238.gif



The key for me was the first 20 mins targeting Kelly , worked a treat, last 3 home games have been very impressive , now need to do it away , next away game in France then Magic will tell us a lot , as for last night never mind their injuries , we have them as well , a bit of praise is in order , same again at LSV please

A bit too easy for my taste but a good game for some of the younger guys to gain a bit more confidence.

I did enjoy the number of Wigan lads or lads who came through the system who scored or made tries. IL and SW have had their critics in their pursuit of playing guys who have progressed through the system I am sure that they particularly enjoyed last nights performance and the style of play produced.

Glad that Patrick got some decent game time. Still very unconvinced by him but hope he proves me wrong.
Williams improvement is particularly enjoyable but the return to form of Farrell is for me the main reason for the recent improvement. Those who say he is too little have gone very quiet of late.
A roller coaster of a season but at the moment pretty enjoyable.

Sterner tests to come but at least we now seem to be getting back to good basics. We need to translate this in our away form which so far has been pretty appalling.

Williams is maturing nicely and it is hopefully now clear to most people why Wane has been right to be patient with him. His contributions in all aspects throughout the game were superb. However the confidence he showed in scoring his individual try was sublime. Had that been from a recognised 5/8 then everyone would have been drooling in praise. I was surprised that he didn't get MOTM but actually I am pleased that he didn't. He has more maturing to do and so we don't want him getting too much adulation just yet. For me he now needs to prove that he can turn a game against a top side. I am absolutely convinced that he will in time. How about a match winning performance against Leeds at the Magic weekend to dispel any remaining doubters?

I saw things last night which made me think that the slight changes in play that Wane said may happen this season are beginning to take shape, especially now that the dry grounds seem to be here.

Williams had a super game last night, but I also noticed Matty Smith turning up a couple of times on the left hand side of the pitch which made me think are George and Matty trying to play like a couple of halfbacks instead of what is seen to be the norm of a left side and a right side halfback. All it needs is for George to turn up on the right a few times and Wigan would really make the opposition think.
This change in tactics (in my eyes) seemed to be borne out when Sarganson suddenly appeared on the right to go over.

Sarge has done that before. In fact we've done in quite a lot this season - remember Joel scoring in the left corner earlier this year. Carmont used to do it a bit also. I think it's an NRL tactic, saw it a few times in the Internationals this morning. Can be very effective.

The stats show how one sided it was

Hull Kr missed 56 tackles compared to 6 for Wigan (I wonder what the record is)
2 Hull KR players averaged 0m per carry as they never carried at all
Wigan gained 3 times the amount of metres thank KR

That first 20 minutes we would have put points on any team in the league,we played brilliant.I don't buy into this whole Hull KR injury thing,we have plenty of players injured too,I just don't think they were up for the game and we punished them for it.

Since we played most teams our attack has slightly changed.

Wire was the best example teams thinking we are going wide all the time looking for the gap between centres and wingers but for Williams to cut inside the player who is out of position. What is impressive is the support play if we make a break. Options either side and usually Rocky joining it. Whilst its taken sometime Williams and Smith look the best combination as both change positions with each other.

Friday night was embarrassing to a degree we took the foot of the gas which is the right thing to do. If we went for it for the 80 we might have seen at least 80points if not 100. We were good but HKR were embarrassing for a side who seems a lot better than Friday nights display.

Sutton's stats are outstanding. Very impressive for a 19 year old in only his second season.

einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result:



60-0 I consider a good result after that first 15 mins I feared the worst
