On another point was it just me or did anyone else notice how the Sky commentator seemed to have trouble telling Big Sid and Hindmarsh apart?
Apart from the fact they look nothing like each other and that they have their names printed on the back of their bleedin' shirts?
Laziness or a case of ' well they all look the same to me' from Sky?

The first would be bad , the second would be absolutely inexcusable!

Finally, and then I will bugger off back to work, well done to Sean 'Eddie' Yates for winning MotM despite being on the losing side.

I was surprised last week when one of our fans was having the same problem.

It's not the individual mistakes that are killing us - every team drops the ball near their own try line or gives away successive penalties. It's par for the course, you get up and get on with the game. And no-one could ever fault the players' effort, endeavour and work ethic.

It's the absolute lack of composure in attack. Twice last night, early in the tackle count, Kear tried to force the pass and threw it behind Williams or to the ground. And Dixon, after the best passing move of the game, broke free down the line only to make a hash of the pass inside to Cunningham. And it's been this way all season. They still haven't learned that we don't need to score off every tackle.

Kear gave Williams no chance with a couple of his passes, especially the last one which i think was on the 3rd or maybe only the 2nd tackle.
As for Dixon I thought he would have headed for the line but Cunningham SHOULD have caught that ball - it wasn't that bad a pass.

I agree 100% about the effort, work ethic etc...., especially as the commentator was questioning whether or not London would tire in the second ha;f after their defensive effort in the first?

Looked like two pretty poor sides to me if I am being honest. Our passing is terrible at times. Im not talking about the little off loads, Im talking about the bread and butter passes. Williams was throwing high, low, away from the man but hardly at him. Kills all momentum. Twice last night Lovell was going at full speed but the pass was behind him and he had to slow down and adjust. makes us easy targets.

Both teams were bad! when you think of the big Wigan names playing, yes we did make errors, and Wigan had a little luck, we did not disgrace ourselves, except for a few players we seem far too lightweight needing someone with real experience, Ward knows that but is the money to buy! we have the space on the books and cap.

Good to see Akex Lambe at the ground, what a dedicated London supporter he has become, full credit to him and rugby league, he travels that much to grounds he has not visited as well as many London games as he can.
