Peet has admitted in his Wigan tv interview he didn’t get the timings of subs quite right last week. Nice to see all 4 get on early this week. Dupree had his best game for a while and Walters was a massive handful. Walters on the bench makes too much sense given his versatility.

Very impressive performance. Luke Thompson is unbelievably good. Thought Jai Field had done his hamstring chasing back Barron but seemed OK a few minutes after.

It feels like we've sorted of forgotten how good the lad can be because it never really got going last year for him but that's the sort of performance he's capable of. To have an absolute handful on the bench, alongside somebody like Mago could be a nightmare for opposition teams. You try and deal with guys like Thompson and Nsemba and think you might get a ket up and then lads like those are running at you.

Just been reading the Hull board (so good to see fans able to compliment the opposition, especially after a drubbing like that btw) and someone has posted that Wigan completed at 99% and made 1000 metres more than Hull last night. Outstanding.

Also watching the game back on YouTube, the gap in our line for their break from the 20m restart before their try was incredible you could fit about 3 Konrad Hurrell's in there.

[/quote:tm29oqdk] Presumably defensive errors like ball steals, offsides, dropping the end of set high kick etc? I don't remember any errors in possession apart from the kick being too long at the end of set (which I'm assuming would be both a completed set and an error). Who knows?

With the exception of their sole try, it felt effortless to me. Last week, we clearly hadn't clicked in properly, but it was back to a smoothly oiled machine last night. Hull offered no real threat at all. It just became a case of when would we score next. Very strange. I was expecting a tough tussle, but back in the golden age, I was often guilty of underestimating us and hugely overestimating our opponents.

Why is it, that whoever we play, wherever we play, whenever it's played, the opposition fans rock up with the old 'well you should win because we have so and so injured or suspended' Is it just Wigan that rolls their sleeves up and gets on with it without making excuses for a potential loss? Maybe that is the difference in attitudes that separates the winners from losers.

Injuries don't affect your team as much. Other clubs, (who don't have dynasties named after them,) see the difference it makes when you lose 4 players from game 1 to game 2.
