Awful team selection from Wane if he'd brought in just one or two youngsters we would of been fine and would have ran away with it after going 12-0 up, would of been an easy game and the first team regulars would have hardly been exhausted it would have been a walk in the park and a breeze. Instead the regulars who did play like Hansen, Hock and McLlorum got into a real battle and looked absolutely knackered at the end and were literally out on there feet.

In saying that we still should have won, the team that Wane put out let him down. Marsh tore Hughes apart and showed he doesn't have the speed/footwork to play centre at the moment. Finch drifted in and out of the match and should have controlled it alot better when he did ie. first 15 of both halfs he was fantastic the rest of the time he disappeared. Russell to me in attack needs to be abit wider, he seemed to be pretty much behind Finch when receiving the ball when we was doing the sweeping moves outwide. He looked really nervous under the high ball aswell which helped Widnes start to get a foothold in the game. Gelling is a centre to me and looked uncomfortable outwide which was another mistake by Wane IMO, as was making Josh switch wings as he also looked slightly uncomfortable at times.

Full credit to Widnes though they played some good stuff going forward and will definitely trouble sides if they replicate that performance throughout the year.

That's 2 points thrown away.

I hope we don't rue todays result at the end of the season.

I for 1 don't believe him.Take a pic of your winning slip for us all to see then i will hold my hands up but until then a load of bull.

This.

But according to GMR he hasn't learnt his lesson as he stated in his interview he will do exactly the same again as regards giving the youngsters a chance.

I'm not really a betting lad, my GF had a problem when i first met her and can see the damage when it gets out of control, but I will have the odd bet, and when I do they never come off. Saying that I have never seen a slip to mix and match EPL with SL but I could be wrong......

Anyone would think that the youngsters have been brought in from nowhere - look at our squad, they aren't that far away and one or two injuries and they are in. So we have to play them, they could be thrown into a key cup or knockout game and they will have to have proven they are up for it. It would have helped if our coach hadn't picked the same team all last season and the kids would have had a few games under their belt.

If that's the case I'm very disappointed. There's no doubt we have some promising youngsters and today they looked good in parts going forward, but they were exposed defensively and because of the wholesale changes they lacked leadership on the pitch. In the last 15 minutes Wigan were clueless and had no direction. Finch looked good in the build up to the first two tries of the second half, but after that he disappeared. I just can't see anything other than that selection being a huge mistake from Wane.

Wane looks like a prize joker after today..sad because he was doing really well this season!! Don't think even IL can defend his crazy team choice though..massive disrespect to the Chemics....better beat Wire and Saints to make up for this!!

Complete over-reaction. You're going to feel like a right berk if/when your team go on to win any sort of silverware this year.

I bet quite a bit, and my accumulator always has a mix of rugby league and football

If you bet online you can combine anything into an accumulator

Not even reading this thread, what an absolutely ridiculous title. Wane made a mistake, no way should he lose his job because of it.

seem's a bit of a schoolboy error from the coaching staff, but Wigan don't turn poor overnight, it was a close game even so.

Agreed, but if he makes the same mistake again then it should be considered.
