| Forgetting our display, I'm made up that Tom Johnstone is getting some regular game time. Excellent player.

| Wasn't able to go this weekend but fair play to the Wigan fans for making all that noise in the face of this fiasco.

| Not winning anything this year that team, absolutely shocking.
Pathetic, no intensity, no defence, no attack

| I said last year that Field was a liability defensively and was laughed at because he made a one on one tackle in the CC semi final.
It’s all been scored on him today and the others around him have been on edge. Probably why he played 1 last year.
You’ve looked really solid in defence without him….

Yes where down forwards but this is no excuse for pathetic defence and commitment'"
We’ve been bullied but we are missing a large proportion of our pack and Catalans have played well.
A defeat like this however is unacceptable though and what it points out again to me like it has a few times this season is we are maybe flat track bullies, when we physically get on top and dominate the ruck and territory we seem to revel (Saints, Warrington and most games we have won) when a team gets on a roll against us we really seem to struggle to stem the bleed and turn the tables.
Tough few weeks coming up and we could find ourselves out of the cup and a way off a home play off final spot. IL needs to get the cheque book out and get Dupree in ASAP.

We have won some big games this season based on intensity though.

When a team stands up to our ‘bullies’ like Smithies we completely lose the plot. We had it with Partington. It’s a pattern that’s gone on for years and part of the club’s recruitment going all the way down to how we’ve profiled and signed young players. We’ve a reserve team filled with players who in the main have no chance of a career in our first team. IL is dormant and probably counting his days down to retirement. I’d love nothing more than some serious surgery done to this squad but I’ve been waiting for that since the embarrassment of us against the Roosters when it comes to signing a dominant pack.

We were missing a large portion of our pack when you scraped a narrow win against us, all your peers discounted that.

Seem to recall people saying these things in 2016 including Bilko having a public spat with players. We won the league that year.
I'll judge us when we have more of our pack left.
Edit - players back even

With bodies back this team is more than good enough, we have seen some of the performances this season that prove that.
