The ref said anymore messing at the play the ball the next one would be off, you cannot then sin bin for offside if you ref the game with common sence, which is basically all we need the refs to do.

so why did he continue to penalize for holding down later in the game but not sin bin them offender is he allowed a time delay hoping we have forgotten

poor excuse we were not good enough didnt play football scored all our points from wigan mistakes i agree he should have sent someone to the bin but on the day wigan were far the better team

Well put.

I actually listened to Nathan Brown on Radio Leeds on the way home and i could have sworn he was describing our performance today.

Lacklustre and lethargic are the two words that spring to mind.

Few players came out with any credit.

No disrespect to Tony Martin,as he has done a sterling job filling in at stand off - but now is the time to switch him back to centre.

We lacked any penetration in attack,apart from kicks.
Gleesons positional defensive play is poor - today he was ball chasing,which was then leaving us exposed when he didnt get back in position.

For me the most disappointing aspect of today was how we threw the towel in,with 5 minutes to go.The top eight positions may well come down to points difference and the lazy last 5 minutes may well come back to haunt us.

Very poor argument at best.

Today was a low quality game.

Its an indication of the current standard of SL sadly.

Think you are being a bit harsh there Jonh
I thought one side was less jaded than the other & for the young lad Ainscough great to see a good natural winger speed to burn

We were poor today! Ok ref was not great but that is NO excuse what so ever!

Defence down Blanch win was terrible.

Poor game all around for us, let's hope we can pick ourselfs up for next week.

Why didn't we bomb the life out of Ainscough and have Blanchy breathing down his neck? 2 efforts and 2 tries, we should have done it all afternoon.

Thought Grix had a stinker too, why not play Murphy?

To be fair, throwing the ball out to their left was the best part of the game for Wigan. They found a weekness and poked it over and over again, we should have done the same (see above post).

What?

Where have i singled out Wakefield or there fans to slate them.

The only negative post i have made directly towards Trinity was the fact the Wigan Walk was slated on here prior to the game in a big way, but when Trinity fans do it on mass it is deemed not fit to talk about.

You do not offend my nature as you simply do not register.

Had a good day today, and the game was enjoyable, but low quality in my opinion, from both sides.

Blanch normaly solid in defence but today he was a bit poor, as for Grix well the less said the better.

To be fair some Wigan fans did still walk out early
