Team of super league cast offs these days, Platt, Worrincey, Jeffries, etc etc.... all ok but they just dont strike fear into me.

similar things have been said about wakefield. maybe it shows the difference between mcnamara and kear.


bradford looked very poor but i think we contributed heavily to that.

I think Bradford were made to look much worse than they actually are by an excellent Wigan performance.

Clearly a declining force, but they will still cause problems for a lot of other teams in SL.

Kear is a motivator, may not have the most exciting gameplan but the way he motivates his side makes the Wakefield performance a thrilling spectacle.

Mcnamare's Bradford side tonight lacked passion, enthusiasm and direction right from the kick-off. I thought Menzies, besides his defensive errors, played OK for them tonight, he was the only one who was trying IMO.

This is why I'm not getting carried away with our performance tonight. As good as we were, Bradford were shocking. Apart from their tries they didn't threaten at all.

The worst Bradford side since they lost the Northern tag by a good way.

Agreed. Very disapointed with them.

McNamara wont hang on to the job much longer, unless they cant afford to pay him off.

Not at all, but does he not deserve the same treatment as our own coach in your eyes? If they smash there next opponents playing some great rugby does he suddenly become a great coach and unsackable?

No. Because he has never looked like being able to take Bradford to "the dance".

So its not the same at all, is it.

How has Noble managed to look capable of "taking us to the dance", realistically he has not, and when we have got to the enterance of this dance, we have been firmly sent packing by the door staff.
