| Comedy of errors today.
Huby stinker. Finn missing George Williams, no conversions, ball steal on tackle five AGAIN! . Johnstones steady conversion from dangerous winger to extra prop (Kear?). Headless chicken Miller kicking when he should run and running when he should kick. Kirmond, kills every move even the last 10 seconds of the game. Constantly driving up the bloody middle (Kear?)
Haven't felt so peed off for ages. Worse performance than Cas game. Couldn't get out of the ground quick enough.
Given me a right fecking headache!

| Typical second game of the Easter period for me. Both teams looked fatigued although of the 2 for much of the game Trinity seemed to have the most energy but couldn't convert it.
For me the ref wasn't great but I don't think you can blame him for the loss. Failure to convert the pressure after Wigan repeatedly coughed up the ball and pace from Escare and Marshall that Trinity couldn't match proved to be decisive.
Can't fault either team for effort but both lacked a bit of quality at crucial times preventing either team kicking on to a bigger win.

| Coming up next we have; Warrington (A), Catalans (H), Leigh (A), Widnes (MW), Huddersfield (H)
In reality, we should be looking at winning at least three of these games to stay within touching distance of the Top 8

John, can I ask you your thoughts on the penalty given against MCB after he beat Escare 1 on 1 and passed to an unmarked team mate 3 metres out for a certain try?
Also, the penalty against BJB for offside after he pinned Marshall down a yard in from the corner flag, that penalty amongst a couple like it allowed Wigan to break Wakefield's grip on the momentum of the match and releive all the pressure on their line.

| He said the 1-1 was a ball steal after the tackle was made on the floor. I disagree but that's what he said.
With all the doom and gloom you've got to realise we are disappointed not to beat the current champions. That's a sign of how far we have come and deserves recognition.
It's also worth remembering that although our attack was stunted with a couple of decisions from ref but mainly us coughing up good ball, Wigan couldn't score against us either when they were camped on our line. The defense was on the whole improved today bar a couple of incidents.
I feared for MCB in the centre but he did ok. Frightened them a couple of times and did ok in defense too against big opposition.
I'm disappointed but time to move on to Warrington.

| The Wigan backs looked out of sorts again today, and as we went through the middle, we met your big units there!!.. Made for a dull game, only enlivened, for me, by the crowd baying at the ref for some iffy decisions.
You looked the more energetic ball in hand, thought the result flattered us..
Good luck with the season, always fun to visit Belle Vue

Looked harsh from where I was (in the North Stand) then looked on the screen and whilst it was an insanely tight call I think it was a very good call. I've not rewatched it yet but it looked like Escare caught the ball and landed with it all be it not on his feet. MCB has his hands on him as they hit the ground completing the tackle and pulls the ball free after the tackle was complete to the letter of the law. Millisecond call but probably a right one.
Can't comment about the offside as I was behind the sticks (unlike most others in the North Stand who seem to have unbelievable ability to call offside and forward passes even when the game is being played 10m from the hospitality boxes)
I personally think a draw would have been a fair result but some silly play late in the tackle count was very costly at times for Trinity. I enjoy watching Fafita but he is prone to the odd brain fart, but that is part and parcel of the type of player he is.

| Before the game and even at half time, I honestly thought we were going to win that game but for me it seemed like every time we started to exert any pressure the ref gave them either a penalty or the decision in a 50/50 play. He gave us nothing.
I am gutted that we lost, but to consider that it was Wiggin that we were playing and that we only lost by 6 points shows just how far we have come with this group of players. Once again, the effort was there (superb in defence) but it is just that killer instinct that we lack.
We are missing the mid-field General that we had with Scott Moore and I have to agree that Miller appeared to take all the wrong options today, which obviously didn't help our cause either. We certainly didn't miss Williams, who I think has been a massive let down so far.
If we can tweek a few things for Saturday, then the Warrington game is definitely winnable.
