Brian Mac on Sky after the game said one loss doesn't make us a bad team.

Stop putting out such negativism!!!

The glass is barely started, never mind half full!!

the ..hic...Glass is always ....hic..... empty as far as .....hic...... I am concerned.

One loss is just that...1 loss. We will win more this season than we did last year and end up on more points!

The loss is not life changing but some of McDermotts comments were very odd.

Can we have some balance please. We won the Cas game on an interception, we lost the Wigan game on one. Get over it.

What we have to learn is killing off games and opponents. If we learn that soon we will have a good season. Mac is right to take one game at a time.

One problem on Saturday is that Wigan were playing their fourth SL and we our second, we will get better, as Gutterfax says "have patience".

There will be a lot of close games in SL this season and all but Leeds and Saints will have to suffer narrow defeats. I hope our nerves are up to it!

Deja vu time - when we blew it against Catalans in Cardiff with a similar suicide move Brain Mac went a bit bonkers when given the microphone! Way too early to get worried about one game/ one pass(albeit a spectactularly bad one!) defining our season but to have 4 points and a game or two in hand would have been really good.

The Wigan match is now the past! just hope the players themselves don't continue to have inquest after inquest, we need to move on and Forward and beat Salford on Friday evening, that is all that counts now

No question about that! I think I was just being wistful, because our team needs to have big momentum to put consistent results together.

I'm not trying to be a hero Mr Lister, that was uncalled for. I'm one of Chad's biggest fans, and wanted to make him feel better.

This game is all about confidence as much as skill.

I don't think that is the sort of defeat that erodes confidence. The team will kno wthat is a game they should have won. They had the chances first half to do that and apart from a silly error late on still would have. I think if anything the players will reflect on it and be determined to put things right next game.
