I can honestly say that I think Masoe turned in the worst performance by a forward I've ever seen in a derby. Managed 11 minutes before he got interchanged, and then never came back on until mid way through the second half. No impact in his runs at all, but when you look at the size of the guy he should be knocking players over like skittles.

Wow. This has left me speechless.

Of course Hull played down the middle a lot. It wasn't too far off of the first choice pack and they were up against the weakest one in SL. At the same time a 2 -7 composed of debutants, a retiree and players out of position was unlikely to gel together well and not surprisingly it didn't.

Spot on tactics from Radford to get the win - how anyone can criticise him on that is insane.

Then again if you coached them with your sports psychologist in tow then no doubt Hull would have won by 50.

I remember the times when if Paul Cooke was injured you fearing taking a hammering due to having no creative outlet on the field, we have lost our 2 first choice halves and Connor is playing out of his sock's at the moment, were are still 4th in the league and we wont be far off the 4 when the super 8's start, was playing Yeaman a mistake, I have no idea. I do not get the reports and see the things Radford and his coaches see in training but I bet playing both centres in a derby game on their debuts played heavily on his mind when selecting Kirk, we got the points and that's what is required at the moment simple as.

If only someone would leave him speechless

Until Kelly gets back, Connor has to stay at halfback, for Warrington I'd go with

Shaul
Miloudi
Scott
Yeaman
Logan
Connor
Harris

For Saints the same but Faraimo in for Harris and Miloudi at halfback.

Can see a couple of hammerings in the next two games, hope I'm wrong.

Hopefully win 5/7 after the Saints game and keep us in touching distance

Surely Kirk can hang his boots up and we can use Miloudi who made more metres than Kirk in one run and less errors.
I would keep Connor at 6 and Scott and Miloudi in the centres and Logan and one other on the wing.
Boy oh boy we are low on troops in the back line

Big, big raps to everyone pulling on the shirt yesterday. Some of the negative comments on here are beyond belief. That was an heroic effort from everyone involved and had we had our first team out we would have put 50 points plus on the Dobbins. The uber critics on here need to rein their necks in and support the boys and the coach, who's doing a magnificent job.

To be honest for St's depending how it goes in Friday at Warrington I'd be tempted to keep it as is with Connor/Harris and have Miloudi on the bench.

I know it doesn't getting any better, but Harris is cup tied.

(ps. Shaun Wane is leaving wigan at the end of the season.)

Think we need Yeaman's defensive quality in the back line at the minute as its very inexperienced at this level. Whilst Miloudi is very good going forward and seems to be a bit of a maverick his defence is not a strong point. Considering Yeaman hasn't trained for a year and a half or played a competitive game since 2016 in all fairness he did the job that was asked and played 80mins.

Its a very tough ask for Scott & Miloudi to go up against Atkins/Goodwin and then Makinson/Percival.

Forgot it was the Cup game against St's in all the excitement.
