I don't think many expected it until into the 2nd half of the actually game. It was then ours to throw away. We obliged.

To say we have the strongest squad in decades and IMHO that wigan squad couldn’t lace the boots of by gone Wigan teams yet are second in the table it doesn’t look well to me about the inconsistency’s of the teams below I’m afraid to say

You say it yourself.
Wigan are second. Even with a full team no one was predicting that for us.
They had their full strength back line playing 6 of which are internationals.
We had one player who had played 1 game against France.

The fundamental reason for our season has been the unbelievable injury run. I can't understand how anyone could say anything else when you list them. And now tupou gone for the last two matches. No coach could defy that with a squad like ours. However, I will concede the CC has made a fundamental error of judgement in not at least giving Hampshire a crack at 7, given Brough"s pretty poor displays. I would definitely play Hampshire there at Warrington. Brough had another pretty indifferent game v Wigan. He looks that little bit slower in thought and deed and his legs ain't what they used to be. Even the kicking game is off.
Warrington is a game we stand a small chance in and I see little to lose in seeing if Hampshire s speed there improves us.... before what might be million pound #3

Think that is a little unfair on those 2.
Crowther's defence has been excellent and assuming that Arrundel plays centre, I dont think he's had any defensive issues there at all

Brough has form against us and always seems to pull a performance out of the bag. As a Wire fan, regardless of his performances this season, i'd be glad to see him sat in the stands.

Safe trip to those braving the M62 on Friday.

Absolute must win game for the Wire on Friday. We desperately need a good home performance to back up the CC win and keep us in the top 3.
We have our players back after a well deserved rest, but I don't think Austin will play and his stand in, Matty Smith has been very poor in his games for us..
I bet you score first though

Charlie the writing was on the wall when we fell twice to London that there were problems in the way players were prepared for games .
Yes I agree that we have been hammered by injuries to some of our best players this season ,but at some clubs this gives the green light to others to cement a place .All our fringe players when given a chance have played with heart and spirit but still get overlooked in favour of players either out of position or out of form .Im no coach but it doesn’t take one to realise that things have been wrong on the field for months .Hopefully we can put this season to bed and move on, and with the comings and goings it’s enough to put that spirit and fight back in us for next season

We don't win often away at Warrington and I think its pretty unlikely that we will this time, we'll know by 10pm exactly what we need to do and if London have won and Shudds have lost that makes for one helluva last round for Sky to spoil by televising them when they should be played at the same time. Only in RL.

As a fellow Wire fan I absolute agree. It is highly unlikely that Austin will play but, even so, we should have the CC squad available plus Matty Smith (whether that's a good or bad thing, only time will tell). We have home advantage, a 3 day longer turnaround (Wakefield's 5 day turnaround is a killer, as we know), probably more bodies to choose from, confidence, despite recent league form, from the CC win and even greater motivation to take the 2 points. I expect a win on Friday and against Leeds the following week. I also expect Wakefield to beat London in their last match to stay up (if they are not already safe due to other results).

With the greatest respect to Trinity if we loose this then either we don't deserve to make the playoffs or your team should be given the freedom of Wakefield.

Our team should be given the freedom of Wakefield? B*ll*cks.

King, Gwaze and Kershaw in for Bill, Batch and Annakin.

Lol. When the Wire fan is more supportive of our team than one of our own is.

I read it as quite patronising PT as apposed to be supportive. If the team wins on Friday why should they be given the freedom of Wakefield?
