Could not quite believe my ears.
Mind you he also informed me that real reason Stuart Fielden did not play was because "he bottled it!" and that he "is always injured" ![]()
Agreed. I was talking to a couple in the Orwell who reckoned our lads weren't up for the game and didn't look interested!

Coley was outstanding last night- we missed him when he went off (and fielden naot being available).
Prescott had a pretty strong game too especially considering he's been getting a bit of flak recently.

I get wound up when I try and talk to them. I really have to bite my tongue sometimes.
No offence to the "older" generation as a whole, but there are a lot of them knocking around who are never happy. They are still comparing players to Jim Sullivan and Billy B etc and would not be happy even if we tonked Saints 100 nil in the CC final
I think its stems from a desire to appear more knowledgeable and controversial, but in reality just makes them look ignorant and dare i say it......stupid?

Bingo. I was talking to someone who said "Wane's team would have licked both sides by 30".  |

I agree, really thought Prescott stepped up last night, considering it sounds like he wasn't fully fit. I was beginning to wonder if Leeds away in the playoffs had been a one off. Coley was outstanding as you say, he should have walked into the England team. |

Coley was Man of the Match by a country mile for me. I recall one defensive set second half in which he was involved in every single tackle.

Coley has been a beast for a while now. He was superb last season and has started this season where he left off.

Im sure any of the St George players who were on the end of one of Coley's many big hits didnt wake up this morning thinking that they played in a pre-season friendly last night!

Watched the game again tonight and wigan finished the stronger without doubt.
Prescott pulled a hamstring , Gleeson off with leg injury we really were a bit threadbare but just seemed to keep going n going.
A lots been said about STI and there discipline on and off the field and how much the players are trusted and a very together bunch but quite frankly for such a young very inexperienced squad at that level wigan where outstanding. Just that bit of patience and class at the right time forced wigan into catch up rugby.
A massive learning curve for the squad and one in which they will be better for !

Did he kick a SGI player with about 10 minutes left? Haha
He definetely had a good game though just looked like he also did that.

I know one thing.
Retirement shouldn't even be crossing his mind..I would give him 2 more years right now.

Coley was absoutley magnificent as was Prescott and Mossop. Lee Mossop played exceptionally well against an Aussie pack when he isnt even a seasoned Prop.

I don't think I would. He was ace at the start of last season then faded out after about halfway through. He was brilliant on Sunday though for sure. If he's still playing like this in 6 months then I'd give him a new contract but we need a better idea of whether time is taking it's toll first. |

No question, but then you'd expect so given Wigan's competitive season is underway. Wigan needed to be in front going into the last 20 and they'd have won the game; just came up short.
Marvellous match though, really enjoyed it. |

Don't disagree FTV also considering the amount of injuries picked up as well
during the game.
Great game as you say ! |
