Spot on. Peet, who I think comes across as a fantastic human being, said they knew what was coming up & prepared for it. Regarding the coach, to me it is all about the coach. Look at HKR, Salford, Leigh - the difference in them individually & collectively with a good coach. Not the best squads, but organised, disciplined, fit, motivated. Compare to Hudds, who have frittered away a fortune of Ken's money, & Saints under Wellens c/w under Wolfe.

Most enjoyable game in a long time. Listening to Arthur's presser he's clearly challenging individuals to improve in specific areas, Bentley's temperament, Miller's control etc, most seem to be responding though I think his his work is cut out with Sangare. Would like to see more of Littlewood, we're still kicking from out own 30-40 far too often.

Wonderful performance, the improvement since BA took over is remarkable, just shows what an abject failure Rohan smith was. Dont usually see a Wigan side fold under pressure, but that’s what we witnessed yesterday. Always like Peets after match comments, he always gives a fair and honest appraisal. It’s certainly turning out to be an interesting end of season top of the table battle. Hopefully next season we will be involved. Finally what a class act Martin is never put a foot wrong all afternoon. Not many forwards could replicate his involvement in the Newman try.

Just seen BAs post match presser. Very impressive, simple, clear messages to rhe players which appear very achievable on a game by game basis, and great communication to fans etc. Players seem genuinely bought in to what he's all about. If we can get him to stay for a couple of.years I suspect we'll be in a completely different place.
Watched the game back last night. Really lifted the intensity and quality in the second half. Martin will be a big big miss imo. He’s mr consistent with a great goal kick and smart brain. He’s also a dangerous open field runner. Big big miss and will take some replacing
JOC is very quickly becoming one of my fav players to watch, constant intensity in D and can pick a line. I think having him at 13 and ackers on the field too offered a lot yesterday
