A poster said "We aren't at the races yet"

and i said "Neither is the ref"

I didn't say "no it's all the refs fault"

At half time i would have been bemoaning discipline and ball retention (and the ref)

Anyroad, nice one on the coupon. Hope we get another to consolidate it for you

Chalk and cheese. Every department of that second half was in point. Back on track

Bench changed the game.

Mago, Havard and Leeming in particular huge impact to turn the game.

Defence much better and started to click in attack when we got into good shape.

Been critical of Keighran but thought it was his best performance in a Wigan shirt tonight still think couple of times he could have looked for his winger but defensively good and showed a bit more with his carry.

The spine not quite clicking yet but it shows signs it will.

Second week in a row Ellis not hit the levels I’d exit t from him and with Hill, Eseh, Cooper and Walters in contention next week he may be lucky to be in the 17 next week.






Unofficially the most boring poster on Cherry and White.

Poor 1st half, second half much better signs of the proper Wigan.

Mago made a big difference much more go forward and distribution then Ellis (who is a prop for mine). Havard when fully up to match fitness will be a real handful - made some good post contact metres, the pass from Wardle to Farrell for his try was a peach. Smith still looks a bit off his game at times but the try might just spark him back into life.

Some positive signs in the second half but we do need to start games better.

We seemed to sacrifice possession and territory constantly, and yet, somehow, it didn't hurt us that much. Catalan will surely feel they should and could have done more damage on the scoreboard than they did.

Happy to get the win after a poor start. We made too many silly errors throughout the game but we defended well in the main and kept our nerve after going behind. Echo what’s been said about the bench. Mago and Leeming changed the course of that game and got us on the front foot.

I was pleased to see Harry Smith switch on second half and play more like himself. We’ll need him at his best over the next few weeks, in what will be some tough tests.

Thought that was a better game than the online reaction is giving it credit for. Error count was too high but that was a fast paced and intense contest. Catalans came to play and would have been out of sight at half time against most teams in SL.

Much to improve on but a great reaction as you'd anticipate. Clunky from the spine at times but all had good individual moments - great chip and chase from Smith to put us in the lead.

Havard very strong, Field more lively and Keighran's best game. Still not convinced Liam Byrne justifies selection now all forwards are available but Peet knows better than me.

Loads of poor mistakes and struggled to get much territory almost all game but we actually looked threatening when we had the chance for once this season so positive signs going forward, defence was very good, which barring last week has been good most of the season, quite happy with tonight.

l had a look at half-time, and online reaction seemed to be, the spine isn't working (true), French is never a 6, and we should swap him and Field (again this? Don't agree, he's the Man of Steel, if anyone has credits in the bank, it's Bevan), and in the second half, it was much better. The kick and chase for Field was a peach. But yeah, of course, we'll need 80 minute performances in the big games.
