Outstanding tonight. Took the game by the scruff of the neck and laid a platform for success.

Always had faith Tautai would come good but was concerned about the Wreckingball but he has been an outstanding addition so far. Technically outstanding.

Both were brilliant. Tautai's offloads were great and FPN really was a wrecking ball in that one!

Frank was awesome. That run and offload that led to Charnley's first try was outstanding and set us on the way.

With any overseas player it's always about attitude for me. They can have all the talent in the world but if the desire isn't there then they'll do nothing. In FPN we have a lad who has talent but his match fitness has been lacking. He's worked on that and at all points his attitude has been exemplary. It's now really starting to come together and we look to have a real pack leader in the making there. I thought he was absolutely terrific tonight.

Both were very good, I'm starting to be very impressed with FPN. It's worth remembering his part in TT try last week, without his effort at the dummy run I don't thin TT would have scored.

TT has been solid for most of the season but the past two weeks he's been incredible. Very happy to admit I was wrong about him. Likewise FPN, took time to get his fitness up to speed but now he's truly living up to his nickname. Haven't had a prop like him since Feka.

FPN with a full pre-season behind him is going to be a nightmare for the opposition.

Bring it on!

I have been proved wrong with Tautai, the guy has turned into an animal. He changes the game when he comes on.

But I thought we had written FPN off and he was to be next years scape goat?

I'll put my hand up as one who was unenthused by FPN's arrival, but I've been impressed by his attitude and he he certainly looks to be coming good now. haven't seen last night's game yet, but by all accounts he building on his recent strong performances.

FPN is giving us a lot more go forward and looks to have a good rugby brain - in knowing how and when to offload. TT still makes too many unforced errors but has improved massively over recent weeks - hopefully he will keep it up.

Dan Sarginson: "This is a fantastic opportunity for me to join the biggest name in the competition" 18/10/2013 Tony Clubb: "This is a new exciting chapter of my life signing for Wigan and I couldn't be happier" 18/10/2013 Romain Navarrete: “I’m very happy to have signed for Wigan Warriors. As soon I knew that Wigan were interested, they were the only team that I wanted to sign for. To me, Wigan is the biggest Club in Rugby League and it will be an honour to pull on the famous Cherry-and-White jersey next year. I look forward to working with Shaun Wane and the players at Wigan.”:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10172.jpg

I was just going to write 'This'. Then realised TT really was awful, but has improved beyond belief. Most Improved Player for me, although I still worry he's going to drop it icon_lol.gif

You can't help but feel pleased for Tautai. He seems a genuine sort of lad and he really seems well liked by his team mates.

I'll hold my hands up and say I thought he was rank bad last season. He was consistently half a yard off the pace in games and he seemed to struggle to get back in the defensive line. I don't know if it's his fitness he's worked on or if he's just more comfortable and less anxious in his surroundings but he's been top class this year.

I'd love to see us get Clubb fully fit for the start of next year. Get Flower and FPN starting and then throw Tautai and Clubb at a tiring defence. It really would be an intimidating prospect, especially if you get Micky Mac back alongside them.

We have some some superb front rowers for next season now, just need to keep them all fit!

Clubb, FPN, MM, Crosby, Sutton, Flower, Leuluai, Lockers?
