I'm very entertaining, this is nothing to do with a social gathering, it's work related so I wouldn't be talking shop at the dinner table.
Rugby in this setting is work and trying to identify where players are failing is what a coach should do right? We as fans talk over what we've done well and what we haven't as a team/individually, that happens all the time, I bet you've said plenty to disseminate how the team have performed but that has little if anything to do with your meal at home with friends in terms of how you talk .

People are saying great effort, they mean we physically got around the pitch, made tackles and tried, but that effort was actually poor in the context of what the effort is supposed to produce, [physical effort again as others have said should be expected every single time they step onto the field of play, or do you not agree with that?
Patting players on the back for 'effort' is just another sign of the mindset, it's not good enough when you have weak application of the effort that does not get you a positive result, I personally thought we were poor for most of the game but that was as much about our failings as Wigan's ability to do what we should have been doing.

I doubt Last will be our coach next season as i think Pearson has already made up his mind
Half back with pace has to be a priority.
Speed of thought helps but we are really lacking pace in the backs for next season especially as it looks like we will continue with Connor at full back

Cheers Nicky, good luck in the final

I’ll be round at half time to let your coaches tyres down.

Because he wants a challenge, did you never ever leave a comfortable job for something that you thought was a step up/challenge in your life? Isn't that what many people in life do, leave a comfortable setting so they can better themselves and progress not stagnate?

Tough night against a very good wigan side, shame that the usual crowd have reverted to type after a few weeks of relative calm, and, of course, bumpy has to have his say.

Ultimately we haven't been consistently good enough all season. For every performance like last week or at Headingley in Round1 there has been a Warrington at home or Salford straight after lockdown. Overall 6th place felt about right to me and a playoff win a bonus. A few have been getting a bit carried away with the 'win it at home dream.

Some encouraging signs these last few weeks but still a few players who aren't top4 material. We need to replace Kelly, Ratu find another big prop and sort out the coaching situation. Busy winter ahead with all the uncertainties that Covid still brings.

ZZZZZZZZZZZ, nothing to contribute to the thread as usual, nothing changes with you does it. WIZEB out

Can you imagine the feedback he gives a bird after he's give her one

I agree it was daft from Griffin but your patience, defence and execution were a playoff lesson - over the 80 minutes you dominated every aspect of the game. Top performance from the benchmark club.

Its not a challenge here though is it ? You win 1 your god and lose 1 and you need to be sacked.
