In Burgess Wigan have signed a name rather than a player.

Sarginson superb tonight

Don't worry, we have Bibby.

Nope 210 miles to the North West.

We’ve signed a pudding.
I’d have preferred a steak and kidney pudding quite frankly

Well that was a shocking second half..not sure what to say really.

Wigan were arrogant when they needed to be ruthless. The game should have been all wrapped up. There's a good team in there but whether it can develop a ruthless mentality under Lam is the big question.

Anyway that's the last game we'll see for a while. Let's just hope the sport is still in one piece by the time this crisis has passed.

The Gold Coast?

Our line speed was non existent in the last 25 mins , we were just stood still waiting for their runners . Hastings played well first half but seemed to put his cue on the rack second half , somebody needs to ask him why.
We have gifted some terrible breakaway try’s in the last few weeks . Surely somebody needs to be sweeping up around the back of the attack for this possible scenario.
George Burgess is garbage
Watson is a much better coach than Lam
Havard was awesome tonight for a young kid
Farrell played well and Clark ran hard but our defence and creativity was non existent
Salford raised their game , ran hard , defended well and deserved their win
I’m going to bed

Went to pot when we lost him and had to reshuffle the middle. Losing Tommy compounded that.

dreadful rugby

Couple of things away from our performance that I noticed towards the end.

Have they stopped giving penalties for goading players that make errors? Gilly was binned for it last year.

What was Tyrone McCarthy on about saying he was gouged but then refusing to officially report it?

In Burgess we have signed someone to compete with Clubb as pretty useless and totally unfit.
The worst "big" signing for many a decade.
In fact I'm struggling to think of a worse forward that we have signed in the last fifty years who was considered a "star" signing.
Lam and the team aren't capable of turning Burgess around

You cannot blame Lam or indeed any Coach good or bad for the way they played in the second half.

With the exception of class players like French, Hastings and Hardacre, some of the others signed from outside the club in the last couple of seasons or so have not been up to the standard expected of Wigan players and we also now have to many players who are past their best with the result that too much is being expected of the younger players.

What was shown at Salford last night was that the Wigan unlike Leeds Rhinos this season, have still not got the right balance of experienced players signed from outside the club together with the best young players from the Academy.

As far as I am concerned, Lenagan and Radlinski are alot to blame for that situation and not the Coach, be it Lam or previous Coach Sean Wane.

In Wigan, the phrase "doing a Burgess" will very soon become a definition of "paid huge amounts whilst being crap at your job"
