| Quote Catnap="Catnap"Had the team worked their booty off for the games that were winnable we would have been in the top 8, so putting effort into a game that was ultimately unwinnable IMO should not be ample reason to forget what has gone on before.
We shouldn't be praising the players for today's performance, we should be asking them why it wasn't there for the previous two games against teams who are at our level.
I said at the start of the season that I thought this squad had enough ability in it to at least compete for the top 8 and possibly the top 6 depending on a couple of other teams, I stand by that opinion, and as such think that this season has been blown for reasons not known to most of us, say what you want but today's performance proves my point and yet some fans are happy to come away from a game losing without questioning why a performance of today's quality that would have beaten most teams in the league has been missing for most of the season and against teams that are far more beatable than Wigan.'"
Totally agree.  |

| Hopefully this performance will illustrate that we do have good back up players to step in when regulars are injured. Wigan had a few missing and i'm sure this will be what people will be focusing on with such a close scoreline. On today's performance, would put Walshaw in front of Lynne. With Collis and Walshaw we have two strong centres. The big thing that surprised me today, was the mighty Wigan army being very covert until the last ten minutes.  |

Bit disappointed that Shaun wane finds the need to mention that we were allowed to slow the "play the ball" down when he watches o'laughlin & mcillorum do that every week.

I bet the Wigan fans feel the same.'"
I agree. Halibut doesn't inspire confidence. Having said that I have been to games and thought he had got things completely wrong but then thought differently when I have looked at the game on TV. |

| Quote Sandal Cat="Sandal Cat"Don't blame the officials for the result but thought we had some hard calls against us.
Thought they only got a penalty which led to a try when Fox was coming back into the line after being injured because Richards protested and Alibert consulted with his linesman. Had it been the other way you feel he would have just played on.
Wigan's last try (which didn't effect the result) was short and then placed over the line which is a double movement and a penalty to us but Alibert and suprisinginly the in goal judge misssed it. Even Wigan fans in hospitality could not believe it.
Overall after the previous 2 weeks I was proud of the team and have no complaints. They "manned up" and if we continue to play the same we should pick up 4 points from our next 2 games.'"
It looked short from where I was at the other end of the ground! |

| Quote financialtimes="financialtimes"I think Tomkins was made to look pretty ordinary today also his "Dark Side" came out a bit too, can't believe the amount of times he ranted at the ref for sod all

Tomkins was the captain today with Lockers being out injured. Thats why he was speaking to the ref. I think you are being a bit harsh there. |

The disallowed try under the sticks in the first half from Wigan, got called for a knock on, looked ok to me.

The score flattered us today. Very impressed with Wakefields efforts. Cant agree with the ref analysis though. Thought we got penalised frequently for holding down but Wakefield were allowed to get away with it but Alibert is always a nightmare and completely clueless and its a point that is always open to opinion. My friend is a Wakey fan and couldnt make the game and listened on the radio and he said the feeling he got was that Wigan got a rough deal with the ref from the commentary. But anyway, congratulations on a spirited performance. You made us look very ordinary today. Youd have killed Cas last week playing like that.
