Thought Luke Thompson ran very well all game. Encouraging

Also Forber showed some quality with the setup for Dupree.

Job done. 2 points. All about recovery for the next game.

Well they say refereeing performances even themselves out eventually... We've certainly got our comeuppance for any decisions that went our way last week.

Absolutely horror show by the guy in the middle. Seemed like if Hudds complained, they'd get the decision. How in the world is Keirghan getting 10 for throwing a ball away, but Swift isn't for a late shot on Faz? Which one of the two has the potential to be the most dangerous?

Really soured the night & kept the game closer than it had any right to be.

Job done performance. It felt like we won by 14 points, playing in a low gear and we could’ve raised it as and when needed.

The two centres were strong, Marshall looks set for a big scoring season, Thompson played well, Chan showed promise, as did Forber when he came on and nobody seemed to get injured (any word on why Byrne didn’t play?).

Take the two and move on, always an awful game, can’t imagine many will want to watch that back.
Positives good to see Thompson come through unscathed with plenty of minutes in the tank

I think that's a bit harsh. We scored some nice tries, looked a threat in attack, and despite a few defensive lapses, with a far from full-strength pack, we were always comfortably in charge. Chan and Forber can be pleased with their efforts, and Dupree looks a great acquisition. Ellis MotM for me. Again. I don't think many will think it wasn't worth a fiver.

Stepped up when needed in that game,Ellis great again,Marshy has already been said, looks to having a very good season but still goes under the radar a bit,not many wingers out there (if any) better than the lad.Potential banana skin this one but we did a job all the team did what they had to do ,thought Smith kicked well again,looking like a strong season again.
Fair play to the small band of Hudds fans,Davy must think what can he do to get more Hudds fans to go to the games as it seems a losing battle sometimes,I think if they won the GF they wouldnt get much more to attend.

We should charge them £60 each to make up for that continuously abysmal following. How long are we going to have to suffer Huddersfield in SL? They are the definition of a club propped up by a rich backer.

Taking last week into consideration I thought we were pretty good. Effectively tied the game up in the first quarter and coasted through the rest.

Big shifts from Ellis and O’Neil who I thought was mom.

I was a bit worried about Field at times, thought he looked as though he was struggling a bit and was waiting for him to pull up. Hopefully any niggles will get a rest next week.

I don’t mind them being in SL because I like Ken Davy and applaud him putting the money in year after year even though the crowds are low. I wonder what has happened I know they had their purple patch around the time Danny Brought was there finishing in the top 4, have fans dropped off with them always coming up short? I do hope they could turn it around and bring fans through the door as they have good foundations; decent stadium, decent squad, owner willing to invest

I thought O’Neil played a total cracker.

Massive shift as you say but my favourite moment was after a Hudds play the ball. Jake Connor was squaring up to O’Neil in his usual plastic Hardman style (he really is comical tbh) and instead Of reacting, O’Neil pushed him away and poleaxed the next Hudds attacker with a cracking shot!

I love that he showed the discipline to not react to that clown, yet took all his aggression out on the next Hudds player legally. Cracking player.

Also.

Forber…

Early days but his speed of pass from the deck is Dermott or Hall’esque.

We have had loads of great hookers since the 90’s but none as swift at getting the ball fast.

Looks a talent

And now we have two of the buggers. Both of whom I would bestow with the Title of ‘classy centres’

Both can draw in defenders and get that pass away and we Have lacked that since Carmont.

It’s dead good being a Wigan fan currently. Just wish the game was the same as it used to be.. but that’s a different matter for other threads.

We were talking about that during the game and reminiscing about the days of Bibby and Isa! Talk about worlds apart.

Keighran looks so comfortable in the side and Wardle is just immense. Ian Watson must have rocks for brains!
