Our defending is very good. Halsall is as good as any Wigan player I have seen under a high ball, Sneyd targeted him all match, think teams will realize it's not going to work. He also improved with the ball in hand, another solid game. Zak was our main threat but our attack remains clunky, passing across the line without holding defenders in the line is pretty pointless.
Faz was good, Bateman improved, Havard seems to be making the next stride forward in his game. Singleton solid I'm sure he will be fine with a little more experienced help. Shorrocks is busy and you can see a decent player in there. Hastings was probably very good which is pretty much what he does every game shame we haven't more of a clue to make more of him. Bibby Marshall work hard for us and offer strike again in a more organised team they will be fine.
I'm not sure if it's me but I get so frustrated watching us play so much dumb rugby. I'm now thinking this is a mixture of lack any of any game plan linked to desperation in attack and over dependency on having to defend. Glad we won but we make hard work of things.

Pot calling the kettle there old chap

Without doubt a cunning plan

Obviously losing the GF last year was gutting but if we had have sneaked a win Adrian Lam would likely have been given a 3 year + contract. Small silver lining but another two seasons of this snorefest would be a depressing prospect.

Anyone think we could be playing a massive hustle? Come big game time we have an enitriely different gameplan, which we execute perfectly?








No, me neither...

Said that’s the plan at the game today



And I don’t believe it either but you never know

I wouldn't worry about that. I doubt he even considers himself a Wigan player any more.

I'm hoping it's the case as we can't be as bad as we are playing, it's impossible to be that tosh with the ball.

Everything in attack is just so laboured. The passing across the line is unbelievably slow. If we went wing to wing, it would be half time by the time we’d got it across there. Players get the ball and look for runners and there’s nothing. It’s just so unorganised but there’s also very little off the cuff play. Harry Smith made a few scampers today and it was crying out for a couple of runners flooding through but there was absolutely zilch. On the flip side the defence is extremely well organised and teams are struggling to break us down. Nobody will get an easy game against us in the play offs IMO but unless their effort is off, I doubt we’ll out score many.

How did young Smith perform?
Difficult to assess on the radio commentary if anyone played well.
Also unsure if defence was good or if Hull were really really poor?
