I thought Roberts had a Good Game!

He scored in the corner IMO plus it wasn't the "Easy" walk in some are suggesting!
Helped set up one in the the first 5 mins.
Was perfect on his positioning for Kick return and didn't miss a tackle all night as far as I could see (Struggle sometimes to make out what's going in in corner near West & North!)
He did "Drop" one when he went round the outside 2nd half but IMO the Defender actually punched/reefed the ball out.
Came out the line 2nd half to cut off potential Salford tries and 1 in particular eas a smashing Hit that Salford coughed up possession on and helped stem the "Mini" Salford revivial.

The "Missed" Bomb is a slight worry but he got Up very well to attempt it and IMHO it was as much to do with the lack of Help from Tim Smith as anything!
They put one up 10 mins later and Smith walked back looking at the ball instead of "Checking" the attackers to Help out.
Gleeson was trying to stop 4 coming through on Rberts and Smith Didnt Help.

My View

People looking to find reason to have a go at someone and create a "Scapegoat" for when things don't go so well in games as their usual one didn't do too bad!

PS

2 x convincing wins against Salford who have already beaten Leeds Away, Hull Away,Hudds Away, Wire & Bradford (Although that's not saying much I know!) and still some people only want to focus on Negatives!

Just over a week ago Salford were coming here supposedly "Confident" and we would have taken 2 x wins and snatched your hands off!

I thought we were Very good for the 1st 25/30 mins and then struggled to control the game from there on in until the last 15/20 mins or so.

Smith didn't help as he failed to realise what Salford's Game plan 2nd half was going to be, Niggly,Lay off side etc but we controlled that Tactic better with 20 mins to go!

I wonder Why?

I don't know what Roberts has to do to please some of our fans, if any of you think he was poor last night then there is no hope for him . I thought he was very dangerous and good in defence last night. The team have obviously been told to give more ball to Gleeson and Roberts and both of them had good games last night as a result.

Once he gets all his confidence back, I think we have a very good player on our hands.

Not totally disagreeing Jon but I'm afraid at present the current "Back 3" are the best option we have IMHO!
They form the Best Defesive set up & we are a Better attacking Side with it as well.

TBH I've felt the same since the Maundy Thursday fixture v Saints at the JJB, he played fantastic that night and has kept up his form for us since that game.

Starting to prove a few doubters wrong Phelps.

Special mention to Coley, who ran some hard yards and Hock, who battered them about a bit.

Tommy was MOTM IMO. Tore Salford apart in the first 15 minutes.

Myler got spotted time and time again in defence...

how did the Hitman do at prop?

Smith was brilliant in the first half, most had good games.

He made some hard yards when he was on and i was very surprised at his leg drive strength as well.

in no particular order, and more than 3

roberts - good all round game
coley - a lot of good defensive work, and has learnt when to offload
tommy - awsome first 20
piggy - steadied the ship in the 2nd half

I thought he was very poor and was one of your worst players. He made loads of mistakes and looked very dodgy at full back. Wigan surely have better players than him to play full back.

I thought Leuluai I was your best player and he has impressed me a lot whenever I have seen him this season.
