But tonight we muscled up and went toe to toe with the opposition, and what a difference it makes. Keep it up Wigan!
Spot on. The only times they got into our half were on the back of penalties.

| A beasting in training all week from an unhappy coach gets aggression levels going.
We had this aggression in most games last season and look how much better we played then. More of this please Wigan

| I don't think we will be short on agression with Hock and Fielden chomping at the bit.

For me a front row and bench of (when fit) Fielden, TL, Coley with Mossop, Prescott & Hock on the bench would do

3076_1671446335.jpg SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

I'd play Lima ahead of Prescott, personally.

[quote="headhunter":lnxdgxk2]Union people are idiots. They almost universally accept that league is a better, faster game played by better athletes, yet for some reason they continue to disregard and belittle it. That game is tedious as hell from start to finish. If he'd ever played or even bothered to give more than a fleeting chance to league he would realise that the game is far more 'technical' than Union ever could be. Booting the ball into touch, scrummaging and forming rucks and mauls aren't areas that involve any skill, technique or mental capacity whatsoever. These are clumsy, outdated facets of the game that are also extremely uninteresting to watch and thus have to be defended in some way by people who are too prejudiced to see the truth.[/quote:lnxdgxk2]: |

| Last night was the first time this season we have played anywhere near where we are capable of....don't know why we havent got into top gear yet but it looks as though we are now building up for the business end of the season now.
For me, if we continue to play like that no one will come close to beating us and I include wire in that. Lets just hope this is it now - Hock comes back next week and fielden shortly after, this should be the time we kick on now.
Lets hope last night was the turning point in our season and lets go and get the double!

It was good result for sure but Hudds and Wire are better teams than Saints and so whilst encouraged I will reserve judgement until the end of July after we have played Hudds and Wire.

I don't think Prescott could be dropped. He's been excellent so far this year and he's becoming an important part of the team. It's not just the head down drives and hard work that makes him useful, it's the fact that he's the prop used in many of the set plays and is the best ball playing prop at the club. He might make some metres for himself but he's also good at putting other players through gaps, like when he put Mossop through against Huddersfield which led to a try, and when he put Lima through a gap against Crusaders which also led to a try. Whenever you want a prop to be involved in the attacking moves Prescott is the prop you want.

47035_1386433761.gif We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif |
|
| Yep alot of games to go yet, but still it was a dominate performance from Wigan, they just kept going and going and eventually our forwards just stopped running into the tackle.
