Phelps isn't really an organiser, though. I'm really hoping we get either TL or Deacs back.

Our enthusiasm for the cause, self belief, confidence and commitment has been the key towards our start to the season. A refreshing change of culture.

We have out enthused virtually everyone we have faced. As a result we are top of the league.

What we have seen at Salford, Sheffield & culminating in last nights effort is a tailing off in those values that have seen us make such a good start. Granted we had injuries but we were out enthused last night. End of. And that is what we have to deal with. Do the team want to return to the old Wigan culture of poor performances leading to an unacceptable defeat which results in a temporary boost in form and several decent wins or do they want o be top o' the league consistent?

Good luck Maguire

That's good preparation for "the exam"

I wouldn't have Ainscough playing at Murrayfield. Huddersfield and Danny Brough in particular would kick at him all day and would take him apart. The outcome would likely be a heavy defeat for us. His kick defence is far too poor for him to be worth the risk. If necessary I would rather see Charnley, Marsh or Veivers given an opportunity than Ainscough.

We played some dumb rugby at times simple as. Why we wanted to throw the ball around when winning by 8 and then 2 I have no idea.

Still, we're 10 from 12 and that'll do me.
