Not sure that Mcrae's stint at saints makes Wigan fans the most unbiased of commentators

Not sure that Mcrae's stint at saints makes Wigan fans the most unbiased of commentators

Was happy with what I saw from the lads yesterday (after I missed the first 20 mins due to the fecking trams again!

Defensively we were excellent again and to keep Wigan to 3 tries was no mean feat although I did think the tries they scored were a touch on the soft side. We matched them up front and although I was never confident we quite had enough to win the game we gave a good account of ourselves which is all we can ask for. I think both teams looked a little tired which is understandable but the effort was tremendous. If we can match this level of performance against the mid/lower table teams then we can definitely push for a top 10 finish. Many thanks to all the complementary posts from Wigan fans on here as well, nice to see fans appreciating our efforts and may I return those sentiments to the Wigan team who, IMO, are a major threat to the Saints/Leeds dominance this year.

Now on to Mr Coley. Now I love abusing opposition players like anyone else and feel that an element of abuse/jeering is part and parcel of the game in order to intimidate/put off other teams. I think the time has come to lay Mr Coley to rest (not in the literal meaning

He also knows he is not going to get the warmest welcome every time he retuirns to the Willows. I thought the effort a lot of fans put into abusing him in the last few minutes (when the game was lost) and after the final whistle could have been better spent praising our own team after what was a gutsy effort.



Finally, did anyone see O'Loughlin getting clocked on the side of the head by one of those stress balls at the start of the 2nd half? Now, I in no way condone "missile throwing" at players but it was a tad funny

Yeah I saw it and, while I thought it was a pretty stupid thing to do, I'll admit I laughed.



Fair play to O'Loughlin for seeing the funny side of it and laughing it off.
