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!

Time will tell I suppose. Injuries will always allow opportunity for the younger lads, regardless of where they are in the pecking order.

Ken Davy seems like a decent bloke and it's commendable how he's stuck with them. I don't think however, that he's had a positive impact on RL.

Yeah they are a well run club (even tho they make huge losses), but there has to be more than that. RL, imo, is also about passion & atmosphere and Hudds don't bring either to the table. Yeah, they can sign the occasional big name, but when fans look at the fixture list, they know Hudds at home is going to be a dull affair. Even teams like Cas, Wakey, Salford etc, who haven't been as consistent as Hudds, get home fans more excited.

Also, they've been in the league what, 20+ years now? I can name 5 - 10 players of note that they've produced in that time. It's not good enough. They are the epitomy of teams that leech off the likes of us, Saints & Leeds. Let us do the real hard work developing. Let us bring away fans to swell your attendances or cup finals (don't get me started on the 22 CC Final). Let us put shows on like last week, or Good Friday and keep the TV exec's even half interested in the sport.

Apart from an owner who loves his team, what do they bring to the table?

Very happy with the result. I thought that for the first 20 minutes or so we were excellent considering it was less than 6 days since the WCC. Huddersfield showed some nice touches at times but overall they continue to under delivery.
O’Neil for me mom and currently the best hooker in SL. Ellis is improving at a rapid rates of knots and on present form our best forward most games.
A nice little cameo from Forber. Can’t wait to see him given extended minutes. He’s perpetual in motion.
Keighran showed some nice touches in attack but I was a little disappointed that he failed to take the high ball that resulted in a Huddersfield try. He’s obviously an aggressive player, which is what I like in all players, but he needs to channel his aggression as per O’Neil.
Another great crowd. Loads of children with their parents which is fantastic to see. The club are doing most things right at the moment and for me attracting younger fans is very high on the list.
Nice to see Thompson post some good minutes too.
