No issues with the ref tonight either thought he was pretty fair to both sides.
There was no doubting our intensity and energy levels either tonight thought they were good, so not looking at the 5 day turnaround as an excuse, we matched Wigan in that department tonight. Full credit to the boys.
Again what did us was dumb play, errors, the usual slow ptb allowing Wigan to close us down and on the whole thought our goal line D was good but again too slow moving up and why oh why was no pressure applied to their kickers especially for the drop goal, there was only Taylor that really tried in that department late on.
Brain fart from faraimo for the 8 point try, thought Green played well as did Fash.
Just think you’re very negative with the ball. Consider the amount of talent your backline has. Just seems like your waiting for the last to kick and not really using the ball before then.
Good hard fought game, maybe see you in the playoffs. Good luck!
RICHARDS IS SUPERMAN!!!!

Thought Masi played really well tonight, ran with aggression, need to rest up now as next 3 games are all winnable, should have paea Bowden manu back, still confident we can get 3rd,
once a black and white always a black and white COYH
Good defensive effort, plenty of heart but rubbish with ball in hand. Not sure what the completion rate was but it was awful for the 2nd time in 5 days and cost us a chance of winning the game. Basic skills terrible, absolutely clueless in the opposition 20 metre area. I'm sick of seeing us turn the ball back inside time after time and forwards driving the ball in over and over late in the tackle count 10 metres from their line, Kicking terrible again and has been said we need some variety in our attacking kicks. same old, same old. We're probably the worst team in SL in the oppostition 20 and we're so negative. Taking the 2 again tonight when when we should be applying pressure. It's as if we know we won;t get over the line.
Really disappointed tonight as wigan weren't up to much

Completely agree with that. Bizarrely we've scored some great tries this year exploiting the back line, I guess often against weaker defences, but we were too negative tonight. Wigan doing a great job of soaking up pressure, taking chances and strangling the life out of the opposition. Will be a fascinating run in, a Saints Wigan final would be a cracker.
