Momentum and so far since got non of it back.

Sheer stupidity go for two it was.

The game is there for the taking. Put 4 decent sets together with some composure and the tries will come.

Re: Catalans (h) : Thu Mar 09, 2023 9:49 pm  

Very poor tonight.

Leaves us with more questions than answers.

Lots to be disappointed by, out enthused again which is the main take away from me.

Halves were terrible offered 0 threat, 0 direction, plenty more to moan about too.

Game changing moment for me was taking the 2.

Said at the time it was a terrible call and after a period of total dominance we lost all momentum.

Peet is going to earn his stripes now because some of the issues are directly as a result of some of his calls.

We still are desperate for another second row.

Yes halves were very poor and I always worry about Wigan in wet weather games. Going for 2 when we did was a strange one.

Michael Mcilorum was incredible.

In the main I agree with you. But I would add to the list 2 props, a hooker and a stand off. We need to replace some of our average overseas players with class signings. That pack of forwards are collectively not good enough and the problem is that we don’t have any players on the sidelines that will make a difference.

Re: Catalans (h) : Thu Mar 09, 2023 10:10 pm  

Too many stupid errors and silly mistakes, a bang average forward pack and a lack of any coherant game plan, what an awful game to watch absolutely zero entetainment (weather obviously did not help and a ref who allowed so much holding down, players staying in the ruck after they had made a tackle and offside, for both teams).

The halves weren't great but had zero platfrom from the forwards to work from - Mago at least made a few yards when he came on but the rest were nowhere near good enough against what was a fairly second string Catalan.A pack of plodders sadly.

Next game I would go with Field at 6, French at 1, Miski on the wing and Cust on the bench at 9.

I do think we will be making wholesale changes at the end of this season, however we can’t simply write off this season already.

I do think attitude plays a major part in our downfall. Sometimes we just don’t look up for it, usually when the conditions are a poor.

Think a few lads have bought their own hype.

KPP needs a good enforced rest, I’d rather see us develop Nsemba than run with him at the moment. Probably time for Byrne to get another crack.

It’s over to Peet now he did a great job in his first season but I do think at the moment he is coming up short, along with a number of players and we need to be decisive and react.
