Not doubting Wigan's injury crisis - it reminds me of Leeds last season. And they came good at the end of the season, when they got the bodies back on the pitch.

Leigh were actually missing first choice three quarters Higson, Crooks & Tonga, and their deputies Clare, Fleming and Naughton. Hence a three quarter line of a wing, a fullback, a second row and a stand off. (that's where Hampshire has been playing, with some success lately) Add to that first choice forwards, Hock, Higham, and Vea, and that is a crisis, when you only have a small squad to select from.

Good luck for the rest of the season.

We shouldn't be losing when scoring 6 tries, again. Our forwards in particular look completely knackered. No excuse for some of those soft barge- over tries we conceded. Still, put Faz and Lockers back in and we'd win that game, I reckon.

I agree but I thought FPN and Navarette were both very good when they were on the pitch. Joel worked his nuts off again but the goal line defence was shocking, as was our defence of kick returns. That's an organisation issue which doesn't happen when Lockers plays. I shudder to think what we'll do when he hangs his boots up!

Yeah, that worries me too. On the plus side, I thought Gildart was impressive, especially on his first game back after such a bad injury. That alone shows how much we're missing senior players like him, Faz, Bateman, Lockers. It lookes to me as if a lot of the players were carrying bad knocks, and wouldn't have played if we'd had any good alternatives. I'm determined to stay positive (without being a happy clapper)!

Gildart is just class, a game-winner. I wouldn't call him a senior player at 20 years old though!

Yes, we just got a few glimpses of the difference a proper centre makes.

Unfortunately, we have many more problems than that.

Listen, Wane summed it up post match, he knows what you have in the locker and you will come good - but Wembley seems your best bet imo.

I think the signing of Segeyaro had a lot more to do with Leeds' end of season revival last year than getting injured players back.

So we just need to sign an Origin level player from the NRL?

as long as he can kick goals

Agreed, but getting the experienced players back must have helped?

Nothing to do with them playing teams like Featherstone? Also they didn't improve until it was confirmed they couldn't make the top 8, pressure was off then.

I think it is a confidence thing, you where winning games earlier in the season with a similar side, it happened to my side Hull , 3 terrible results, in which if he had some confidence we would have won two of them, you just need that win (anyway possible) to kick start your season and with a few players back I think it will come soon probably next week in the cup.

I still wouldn't fancy playing you in a one off cup or play off game.
