I was in the south stand bar last night before the game and a mate of mine came up with a great point!

Each week they tell us how great its gone in training blah blah blah.

But you can be a great trainer, fit as a butchers dog, strong as an Ox but if you cant play rugby, your screwed!

Its a simple point but one i feel sums up the majority of our squad and games!

I think most of them are too nervous/not confident enough to try things that they've done in training and tranfer it into a match situation. :(

Why then if 'some just can't play rugby' why are they picked week after week, in front of others who obviously can?

Ask Noble






Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know
-
FIOS

IMO I don't think its them not being confident enough to try things, more a case of being restricted by the tactics. In the second half last night when we were a few scores down we seemed to abandon Noble's 5 drives & kick tactics and looked more than capable of scoring.

Training always goes "well" - even when it doesn't.

Words and meaning have parted company entirely.

True, Ive never heard Noble say in a interview " training went awful and we arent ready for next week" :lol:
