Excellent win, entertaining game and a belting atmosphere.
Well done lads!

Sensational win in front of a big crowd, absolutely bouncing this afternoon. Week off as well.

Fantastic win. Great crowd and atmosphere. Gale never stopped talking and organising. Forwards again top notch. Even after a great win the usual suspects either finding negatives or just don't come on till we lose next. COYH

A great win and some excellent performances against a pretty much full strength Wigan team, some of whom had a week off last round.

Great to see Adam Swift back and scoring tries. Connor excellent - rubbishing the lie that he never performs against top teams. Ma'u, Satae and Sao immense.

Still work to be done and a run of away games to come. Gale and Reynolds will hopefully get a god run together.

I won't be so churlish to name our worst players after scoring six tries against the Cup finalists and a top three team.

If I was going to grumble I would complain about having nobody at dummy half...again.
Gale also needs to work on his in play kicking but hopefully a run of games will improve that. Assuming he doesn't get banned for kicking the ball away with 1 second remaining

It was an important win and probably one of the best home games we’ve seen in a long long time. Apart from Gales poor kicking game it was hard to fault anyone.
Plenty of effort. São & Mau outstanding again.

Surely more than 11.5k there too!!

Re: Wigan H - a must win ? : Sat May 21, 2022 4:52 pm  

I'll stand by it, I thought Gale and Reynold did alright. A way away from MotM performances but they did what was needed.

Giving away penalties late in the count and dropping the ball in the tackle kept Wigan in it. Without that we'd have beaten by a comfortable margin.

Looked like Sao, Lane and Connor were injured. A week off has come at a good time.

Re: Wigan H - a must win ? : Sat May 21, 2022 4:56 pm  

[fimg=][/fimg]Well I'd said we'd win by 6, so by 9 means very happy.

Ref was so inconsistent, gave penaltys to Wigan 4 sets on the trot all for really innocuous things. Wigan spoiling as usual but got away with it.

We played as a unit. Great graft, but sorry Gale was brought In to make us more organised and in moments we still have the school boy brain farts. Why Gale or Houghton arnt over supporting wynnes break or there for the play the ball needs to be addressed, as does the Reynolds drop goal attempt.

Bit better organisation and 2 better half backs and wel push on.

Good 2 points though and the home forms unreal.

Thought Carlos and Wynne where out top 2 performers, followed by Connor.

11500 really. Looked around 13000 to us there. Maybe more
