Wigan St Pats 12 - 46 Hindpool

On an absolutely baking day in Wigan we managed to come away with a very convincing win and probably the best performance away from home I have seen from a Hindpool team. In the first half we got of to a flyer, going in for two try's in the first 10 minutes to take a lead that we would never surrender. After this St Pats came into the game off the back of a few errors and a lot of debatable decisions from the referee, at one point we defended 8 sets on our line off the back of penalties before eventually conceding. Given good field position those lads can really play rugby and their movement is very good. We traded try's going in at the break 12-18.
The 2nd Half performance from us was outstanding. Very few errors, great organistation and controlled the game both in attack and defence. With us having the majority of posession Pats really started to fatigue in the heat. We crossed the line 8 times in the second half, with 3 being ruled out (2 wrongly in our opinion) but luckily this had no bearing on the game, winning the 2nd half 28-0. Credit to them though as they never threw in the towel and pressed us all game. 3, 6 & 7 for them were outstanding throughout!
Good luck to Pats for the rest of the season, great bunch of lads and I hope they can get a few of their problems with lads not training sorted as they could be a real force with the right commitment.

Next up is another tough fixture at home vs Culcheth. First time the two teams will have met and no doubt will be a cracking game looking at their results this season.

Who's actually taking part in the top 4 play off, is anybody really interested. We were really up for it but after having only 2 games in almost 2 months the hunger seems to have gone now.

no idea whats happening with the playoffs not heard any information on them we would take part if they happen,we have pats this week no idea what team we are going have we 10 lads missing from portico game on hols or working so going be a tough game for us

well that's it the end of a season yesterday games was a joke we where well and truly stiched up pats bring a totally different team from the week before there players laughing saying the 1st team had no game, its wrong and shouldn't be allowed no excuse with players missing we just didn't perform, game called of with 20 min 2 go as a 2nd pats player sent of in the 2nd half and another in the bin and 1 of ours sent off,the game wasn't even nasty, there players who got sent of the ref changed his report to a yellow on the team as the so called mens league chairmen who is a pats fan was sat in the refs room after with the team sheet, make your own mind up ,just cus there 1st have a big game in the final next week

Play offs down to start this week

Brig Vs Culcheth
Hindpool Vs Portico

Portico have already said they aren't taking part because of injuries and lads moving to winter teams so we are through to the final on the 12th October.
Would be surprised if Culcheth bother going to Bamber Bridge either. Watch Dalton Vs Golbourne on Saturday and seemed to be a lot of Culcheth lads playing in that.
Not even sure what our lads think to playing. It's been that long since we played that we haven't been training and I think most just accepted the season had fizzled out.

really
