Very flat, boring game so far. Glad it's free to watch. I'm not surprised, Wigan going through the motions, albeit poorly. Glad we're resting players and playing some youngsters.

My word, how poor is the BBC coverage? It feels so amateur. The commentary is knocking me to sleep. Hate to say it, but I'm missing Stevo and Eddie, flaws and all.

We just look a different team i know we have players missing but we don't look the wigan that won everything.

Call it a knee jerk reaction but i think our season is done, think we will limp out the playoffs.
Really hope I'm wrong

Iv'e had that feeling for a few weeks but don't want to admit it to myself. We are scraping past sides that others are battering and the good side we came up against recently we got smashed at home. We look like a team crying out for a rest......

But......

French and Smith are to come back soon and we could get top 2. A home tie and a week off could just be the tonic. I'm not giving up yet. It sounds ridiculous because we are challenging at the top but we can all see how lethargic we have become and the table doesn't tell the whole story.

Pretty relaxed about the performance - we were worse than today in the home game against Hull last year and responded with a great run at the back end.

Someone should tell Jon Wells that any win today takes us into second, points difference is irrelevant.

Jon Wells: Good win for Wigan but due to points difference it won't be enough to lift them from where they are in third into second above Warrington.

OK Jon, basics lad. :|

We are too restricted by the system we are playing under. Lack of offloads and no heads up rugby is getting us into a lot of bother in games. Let Farrimond play his natural game and trust him. There was about three minutes of excitement in that game today centred around a Thompson offload and later a Farrimond individual break. We are hanging in there and hope when the spine is back together we put on a run we know we are capable of but it’s a big ask. Quick mention again for Thompson and Havard who are the only front rowers we have worth talking about. The drop off to the others is just too big a gap to bridge.

I think we are doing OK, another win picked up today with bodies to come back over the next two weeks.

Ellis back next week (missed him today), Bevan rumoured back (how we've missed him), Miski has had a week's rest, Smith back for Hull KR, Faz only out a couple of weeks hopefully. At the end of the day you can't blitz every game at 100%. Hull KR are flying at the moment but will they by the time playoffs come around? Matty Peet just said he knows and they players know that the rhythm wasn't there today but Champions win even when they aren't playing at full tilt.

Poor game not helped by the ref who allowed all kinds of nonsense at the play the ball.

Obviously still struggling in the halves but given how slow the PTB was they had very little opportunity to get on the front foot despite the fact we were consistently winning contact but not getting any reward for doing so.

Nice cameo from Forber. Gave us a bit more direction which I think at times we lacked under Leeming.

Job done but will need to improve next week if we want to pick up the win.
