Nsemba is turning out to be everything I thought Walters would be. Walters in preseason I thought was going to be a star. The game at Hull he played really well, tough. Then in the last minute {I think), even though the game was won, he tries to put on a hero shot and knackers his shoulder. He hasn't been the same since his return, pretty underwhelming. Junior has taken his opportunity with both hands and has gone from strength to strength. He was a colossus tonight. Farrell, when fit, will replace Walters of course. Peet will probably stick Walters on the bench for his utility value going into the playoffs.

Special mention for AK tonight. I think he was a close call for MOM. I actually think he looks a far better half than centre. For me leave Eckersley at centre and let French, Smith and Keighran fight it out for the two spots

ININOUTOUT

It feels like Keighran's a natural left sided player, whether he's at centre or in the halves.

I agree.

Byrne looked OK, best game from him for a while. For me, he just did the basics well and didn't try too hard, good progress. Massive shame if we lose Forber, never understood why we signed Leeming, even though hes proven a handy signing with O'Neil and Forber's injuries.

I didn’t watch the same game as you mate. That was easily Byrne’s best game for some time, Dupree played well. Our problem was basic errors in the first 40 from Field and Marshall. Sort that out next week and we will take some beating.

Mate, you can blame the coaches for that, he has to maintain a weight that, in my view, is unrealistic.

You don’t, he plays on the other flank.

He’s a prop.

Bad, bad decision from our point of view. His dummy half play is on another level from Leeming.

That’s the comparison I have been making. I said the same to his step-dad, his delivery from dummy half is aka Martin Dermott, and he is the best passing 9 I have seen at Wigan.

Junior is a superstar in the making, end of.

What I like about Forber is that he is perpetual motion. Every ptb is his. A good grafter and a decent tackler. No quibbles or play acting just gets on with it.
Personally I’d start him before Leeming every time irrespective of the balance of the remainder of the team.
Obviously Peet mustn’t agree hence the signing of Leeming.
I hope that he leaves the club with a bang

Saw this coming since he was about ten years ago when he arrived at Judes. Fresh, raw and within a fortnight one of the best players on the pitch.

It's lovely to see, he comes from a nice family. Whether he stays at Wigan for the foreseeable future remains to be seen
No doubt the offers from down under will come calling soon (if they haven't already). Let's enjoy him while we can.

Was at the ground so only saw a few replays on the screen, what was leeming sin binned for. It didn't look late or high?

Did the ref say why

It wasn’t either, was pretty bizzare, ref didn’t see much of an issue, commentary all agreed it was a fair shot but all came to the conclusion he got a card because of a accumulation of incidents which only works when the final one is actually a foul.
