I do remember John Kear complaining about their wrestling tactics and he was berated by Wigan fans for being a sore loser...

| I actually think he comes across pretty well. Gives Wakefield a lot of credit and admits even with a fully fit first 17 available they'd have struggled to win yesterday. Have they exaggerated on the illnesses only they know that but Wakey put in a thorough, professional and ruthless performance so credit has to go to them for that. As the old saying goes, you can only beat what's out in front of you.

| I've watched the Radlinski video and I can't make out if I feel sorry for him for doing this or sympathy? All I can see is the Minister of information during 2003 Iraq war, Comical Ali I think he was called.

| Out of interest any news on our players after this game. One would have thought that if as bad as portrayed by Wigan that with the close contact that is Rugby League the virus would be spreading through our camp by now.

Wigan had 13 fit and ready to go players on that pitch. If anyone says any different they are Media crooks.

| Someone may want to check this but each year against us they have an illness issues or loads of niggles and knocks. This is something that has happened historically against us. They always blood some young talent against us and generally you think we have got a chance and we generally get beat. If someone has a virus to be fit and back up to play you would expect a minimum of two week affected, however they will have recovered.
To me this year they already had a number of injuries and then they rested a few. They were shot but it's because we made line breaks and they had to keep tracking back and getting set and making more tackles than they usually do, our pace tempo and aggression took it out of them.
SW got it wrong they underestimated us. Let's see the squad against Cas if it's similar to Sundays I offer me apologise.
Also even though they had people out the cap of that team will still be over what ours is.

| I had some time over lunch so I looked back at all Wigan's fixtures so far (SL + WCC) to see how many times each player from our game had played this season.
Now that does not look like a team with 10+ players missing, ok 2 of the subs have not played but most have been part of the Wigan team so far this season.

This is exactly how every Wakey fan should feel.
Could you have imagined the gloating and put downs, if we had been beaten by that 'injury ravaged', 'virus decimated' side on Sunday?
Would have had numptys from all over the place bombarding our board.
It does my swede in to hear people taking pity on them.
You know that just because we are Wakey and we are expected to fail, the players have gone from rubbish to heroes in a month.
The players may not be that bad after all!

We have a winner!
Wane is a notoriously poor loser - he gambled on resting some big players and it backfired on him. That video by Radlinski is nothing more than a PR exercise to appease their angry supporters - his explanation lacks verisimilitude and if they really were that badly hit by a mystery virus, they would have appealed to have the game postponed on medical grounds.

Couldn't believe it myself. Why did he bother.
I think he had been told to do it and it just went on and on with him repeating himself and got more and more embarrassing.

| To be fair to Wane, if as he says they only played with 7 players (10 were missing) then it wasn't a bad result against our 17 plus the ref.
