Quote: Cherry.Pie "I was going to say the opposite. I think he looks like he's got a lot of work to do to make it at this level. He just seems to slip off tackles far too easily and never passes the ball. The only time he looked dangerous was when he just had to keep hold of the ball and sprint.'"


The lads a winger without doubt for me. He just never lifts his head whilst in possession and his first up tackling isn't strong enough. I trust Maguire and Wanes judgement fully and they obviously see something in him but he's had a slow start to his first team career and he'll need to improve an awful lot if he's going to hold down that right centre spot.

As for the game tonight it was a case of job done. We weren't great by any stretch but a wins a win and we move on. The fact that we could win a game tonight pretty easily whilst playing nowhere near our best shows the problems we face when it comes to competing with sides like St George. We aren't pushed hard enough week in week out to be forced into getting all the 'little basics' right.

Quote: wardleyred "cant believe the arrogance of some pie eaters on here,yes we know your super league champs,you were not good enough last week and only had 5 day turnaround(just like us)we had a captain out,did bomb chances and a better team would have prob beat you tonight,i dont recall many seasons ago when it was the other way round at our place!!you will prob be in final again,but my money is on the wire to topple you,thanks for boosting the gate and learn to get behind your side without a frigging drum!!all the best'"


May I ask how are we being arrogant? By stating that we didnt play well, which we didnt. And neither did you. But if as a Salford fan you want to be pleased with that performance then go ahead, it will get you nowhere.

Quote: MattyB "Agreed. Thought he was very poor again tonight.
No wonder Goudling kept coming in from the wing, when you have Marsh as your centre you ain't gonna see the ball.

Didn't pass one ball all night.'"


True - but I think that's at least partly because he used to beat people for fun at U20s level, and hasn't adapted to the better defenses in SL. He'll learn, just needs some more 1st team games under his belt (and may get an extended spell now...?)

Most of our players had their faults tonight, don't think it's fair to single out Marsh.

I didn't think Salford were all that bad, actually. Their kicking game was far better than ours, and they showed quite a lot of individual skill, they just don't seem to play as a team. If some of those half breaks they made had been better supported, they could have made things a lot harder for us.

I was very impressed with Sneyd(think that was his name) for Salford.

Is he a young lad? He looked like he could have a big future.

But you have the backup we don't, we had Bailey, Anderson, Holdsworth, Boyle out, and Ratchford went off in the first half, they were covered by Marc Sneyd a 19 year old kid Adam Neal a 20 year old lad and Jack Spencer 20 also none have had a lot of experience in SL where as your back up have all played in big games and won trophies, that’s the difference.

Oh by the way that Tompkins the skinny one really needs to stop lashing out after being tackled otherwise one day someone is going to give him a real good hiding!

So did we not have Marsh + Charnley playing? Must have missed when they both played in big games.

Yes being backed up by current internationals who have bags of experience, it’s like with any good team (saints) (leeds) (wire) you can afford to put kids in and do ok but teams like us who have a thin squad we really struggle with even one of two players out never mind 5.

Quote: 19 Leagues "
Quote: 19 Leagues "ermmm i wouldnt say we were terrible!! i thought u looked rather average after a hard game last week and we gave u a good run for your money!if you had have seen us against saints 2 weeks back ..then that was TERRIBLE!!..bit of credit please'"


No credit from me except for Rachford and Patten. You droppped the ball about 90% of the time when you had a good opportunity. A stronger team would have beaten us well tonight, us on top form would have blown you off the park completely. I was much more impressed with you last year than I was tonight.'"


Amazing!!!! Just how arrogant you Wigan fans have become all of a sudden. You don't think Cashmere played well? He was immense tonight, took it up all night long, made the hard yards and some fantastic off loads. Adamson played well tonight, except getting rather unceremoniously dumped on his ass. Wild and Sneyd had a really good games, and Godwin gave a good performance.

Granted, some of our execution on your line was poor, but Salford never stopped coming allnight and should be reaaly proud of that effort. Especially, when you consider where we were a couple of weeks ago. Anyone outside the top 3/4 teams in super league would have been put to the sword tonight.

Can't believe I'm saying this, but, due to tyour arrogance, I'd rather St Helens or Warrington take the super league title ahead of you this year. I like Wigan and hate the other two teams with a passion, but some of you lot need to learn a little humility.

Good game tonight and you deserved the win, but if we'd been a little more clinical you'd have been on the receiving end of a loss tonight.

One bright spot worth mentioning - 11 of our 17 were our Academy products.

I think I can speak for most on here and say we're heartbroken at this revelation.

I mentioned about 4 posts up from this how well I thought that lad played so your statement seems a little bit unfair!

Sneyd, Wild, Cashmere and Smith were standouts for you guys tonight.

Feka needs a fork putting in him as he's done.

Wigan Warriors is all the town of Wigan have to be arrogant about, but in theory you’re the Champions of the smallest major sport in the country not exactly on par with Man U RL fans can’t afford to be arrogant because apart from other RL fans no one else in the country gives a hoot about RL or Wigan RLFC.

Arrogant because I dont think Salford had a good game icon_lol.gif (and also admit that we didnt either, so I think they need to look up the word 'arrogant' icon_rolleyes.gif )

If Salford fans think that was a good performance it goes to show how sh*t they actually are.
