Another terrible performance. We are so badly coached it’s dreadful to watch. Feel sorry for Hastings, absolutely giving his all but getting nothing back out of this team

Didn’t think we were as bad as early in the year.

Made a lot of breaks/half breaks. Although We came up with a lot of errors at key times. On another day we’d have scored 4/5 tries.

Glad to see Field out there.

Hardaker looked sharp but I feel he’s still better in our half (defence and good early set carries) than he is in opponents half (cut out passes to the winger for try assists etc).

Bateman was class imo, hope nothing comes from that scuffle with Livett (I thought a punch was thrown at one point).

Hardaker had a couple of chances to pull the trigger on a pass to the centre or winger to try and send them in but held on to the ball. It is what holds him back from being world class because at his best the rest of his game is.

Tonight was the first match that I've been to where I was able to sit in my usual seat, which was kinda nice. Maybe it meant a bit more to me than you guys, born and brought up here, but as a relatively recent Wigan dweller, it was nice to be welcomed back by my neighbours. But the game wasn't all that, was it? For sure we looked better with Zak at full-back and JH in the halves, but again I felt, JH will leave massive boots to fill. He has papered over so many cracks for Wigan, and has had a lot asked of him, and my admiration for him has only increased this season.

Awful game with two pish poor teams.

Our tempo is slow slow slow slow.

Without Hastings we are not even half decent

Icouldn’t attend on Sunday due to family commitments so was hoping for a decent follow up tonight but the standard was poor at best

If Lam is here next season I won’t be. He is boring me to death with his “attacking” rugby

His only excuse tonight for the quality of attacking rugby is us being a bit disjointed with a numbers of players in and out from Sunday but it’s no excuse really. That first half was just abysmal and I have no faith that even in a few weeks, with as strong a team as we’ll have out out all season, that we’ll look any better coached. There will be no excuses left for Lam when he has a team consisting of Hardaker at 1, Hastings and a fully fit Field at 6 and 7 and Bateman at 13, Isa and Faz in the pack and we’ll be leaving good players out of the 17 (thus is all being well) but I have no faith it’ll look any better.

As others have said the first half was woeful but once Hastings was moved things got a little better,Wigan need to find a replacement for him or next season is going to be a struggle.

Quote: sergeant pepper "Surprising how differently people see the same game.

I never thought we'd lose tonight. Salford looked poor, unfit and, apart from Sarginson, had very little threat. The ref kept them in it in the 1st half with some very questionable decisions. I've never seen Powell so animated as he was when the ref gave the knock-on before HT btw.

The changes in the 2nd half showed the difference it makes playing seasoned pros in their best positions. We could gave easily scored a couple more and I don't think we scrapped home.'"


It surprises me how far we have fallen, that people can defend that performance. It was a relief to win, it wasn't entertaining in any way, the amount of dropped ball and just general lack of having a clue is pathetic.

I’d be knocking on Lam’s door if I was Marshall saying if Bibby is my centre just play me at prop.

Bibby is really frustrating. He's got a bit of pace, can beat a man but just won't pass the ball. If he could bring a decent pass to his game he could be a pretty good centre.

I’d give Bibby some slack tbh. He’s been moved about a lot, both from wing to centre and from right to left and left to right at various times. Personally I think he’s had two really good games against Leigh and Salford. A huge threat with the ball, eating up the ground and making plenty of breaks. If he can develop that side of his game then I think we’ll have a far better player on our hands then we probably thought we had when we signed him.

Basically describing what we have our wingers doing though. It’s not something he’ll be able to develop, if he can’t see a winger in his peripheral vision then it’s just not going to happen. Isa can manage it, although his execution isn’t always the greatest.

Isa is surely an example that you can develop it to a degree. He wouldn’t/couldn’t pass for toffee last season and has clearly worked hard at it. It maybe that he just can’t do it and if that’s the case then his future may end up being as a full time winger but Id give him some time to settle back in to the spot before judging him too harshly. The rest of his game last night and in particular against Leigh was fabulous IMO. He terrorised Leigh and was a huge threat in the second half last night.

But isn’t Isa a centre by trade originally? It’s not like he’s just been shoved there recently having never played the position before.
