Sam Tomkins must be wondering what the hell he has let himself in for.

Laughing Gravy:



Though delighted with a Wire win, I expected a closer game and felt sorry for Bateman who ran his blood to water and shamed most of his team mates, you would be really struggling withou him

Thought clubb had a good game alongside Bateman but you were definitely missing some players who would have made a big difference.

Poor performance, the team looked knackered from the start... Warrington had to be favourites before the game, and i expected them to win, so no surprises there... Nothing won in April, and the season finishes in October.....

Is this a serious post, it looks way too cliche too be taken seriously? It looks like like something Wane would read from a cue card.

Just because YOU have an opinion, does not mean YOU are right, i'm entitled to an opinion, just as you are.. I know i'm one of the few who does not scream like a girl, and have to be dragged back from the edge of the cut when we play badly, and it's why i post very little these days... I'll leave you to your hand ringing and wailing... Have a lovely day... icon_smile.gif ....

Regardless of injuries that was really poor, I can't comprehend what we must do in training in attack. Even at the start when we were competing with them it was only because of our defence. I feel sorry for Bateman and Clubb, they didn't deserve to be on the end of that scoreline (which flattered us!)

It's a sport, not life, I take it no more seriously, I just expect (more like hope these days) to be entertained. I wish I could be as upbeat as you I really do, but to me that's just sticking your head in the sand. That isn't a personal insult, it's just a difference in personality type. I haven't felt entertained for a long time now, it goes back to last year when we seemed to just lose ideas all of a sudden and nothing has improved. I fear that we will get players back, some individual performances will win games and the bigger issues will be overlooked.

I completely agree with you. A few years ago I would have come up with reasons for a thrashing then told myself that we will improve and go on to win at Wembley then me mam would wake me up for school.
Injuries are merely highlighting just how poor we are. Apart from Clubb and to a lesser degree Bateman the rest were truely awful last night. This isn't new news it's just a continuation of drab, lifeless, joyless rugby.
We trundle everywhere. We have a team of trundlers. I genuinely find it hard to believe that Burke, Isa, Tierney, Sutton, Mossop, Smith, Powell et al ever played RL before they signed for us. They are totally utterly lifeless.
If I hear again about conditioning and how fit we are I will scream. We look shot at before we start a game and every player gasps for air even after trundling in. The body language of the players is depressing.
Personally I don't think we are a top 8 team and said it my sons at the Catalan game. At the time they laughed at me but they are not laughing now.
We will struggle to beat Dewsbury and then get butchered again by Hull.
I'm not surprised by last night but disappointed with myself for not feeling hurt about being totally thrashed by a team who stopped playing after 60 minutes.

I am not quite in the desperation state but last night was poor.

It has to be taken in context - looking at some of the young players last night they looked shot, I suspect some of them have played one too many games recently at their state of development and it showed. Some of them (but by no means all) may be good prospects but they are having to do too much at present without the benefit of experience to fall back on.

There was also a clear lack of leadership out there - Lockers is a big miss in just that regard beyond his ability on the field and I am not sure Bateman is captain material just yet. Too many times the team looked lost and directionless, Gregson at 6 cannot offer direction and that leaves Smith with far too much to try and do.

We were beaten by a team that played much better last night - simple.

Wigan can and will get better once we can get a full team out, that will be a time to judge.

You can't argue with that. I would also ask people not to judge a rank average performance from Warrington....please judge us when our best player is on the pitch.

I wouldn't dream of judging Warrington: you did plenty enough to win.

Quote: moto748 "I wouldn't dream of judging Warrington
I'm not having a pop at Warrington but I don't think they played as well as they can. To be honest if they had played for a full 80 minutes I think they could have over 60 points. If they had needed to they could have stepped up a gear or two.
I'm just thankful that Sandow didn't play and that Currie decided to have a kip for most of the night. Non of our young guns are remotely near as good as Currie.
I'm not worried what Warrington do or don't do I'm just worried that the impact several years of non recruitment has arrived irrespective of injuries.

Only played with 12 men near the end when are are injuries going to stop.

Wigan had five England players and another three regulars on the sidelines and they then lost forwards Tony Clubb (head), Lee Mossop (quad) and Taulima Tautai (calf) to injury in the second half as they finished the game with 12 men.
