[quote="hull2524"]11500 really. Looked around 13000 to us there. Maybe more[/quote

I thought 13 to 13.5k comfortably but oh well

Definitely.

Especially given the queues outside for East and South stands.

Surely more than 11.5k there too!!

Yes, that was a surprise when they announced it. Looked comfortably more than the Toulouse game.

Great afternoon's entertainment was it 5 assists for Jake? Carlos back to his best works so hard carrying the ball out of defence. Better from Reynolds and gale hopefully a few games together will see a bit improvement. Usual forwards stood out but must say was impressed with Evans his work rate in defence is so good. Would liked to have seen Joey replace Danny late on for some speed around the ruck but looks like injuries stopped that happening. Well done every single fan who was there superb atmosphere

Really enjoyable performance should have won with a bit to spare. Gale and Reynolds were ok but we need more from them.

Wonder if Jake should take over kicking duties?

Impressed by McIntosh. Really works hard and takes pressure of the forwards.

Sounds like Sao may be out for a while.

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

so who is finding negatives about todays win?
So that we are on your planet can you name them because apart from a couple pointing out some obvious brain farts i cant see any.
There are criticisms but for me the only real negative was the injury to Ligi Sao who could be missing for several weeks

I think Gale will be fine, he was on 10/12 before today. Three missed this afternoon but all from the touchline. Maybe lacked a bit of match condition goal kicking.

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.

why not name the worst players in your opinion
Its a discussion forum
It doesnt take anything away from the win
Its what should happen on this forum not hide your thoughts because you may upset some others on here

Why don't you name our best players when we lose?

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

Gale has been a super league scrum half how long now with different teams? You shouldn’t need a run of games to work on your kicking game, it should come natural after all this time knowing where you are on the field which is the best time to kick etc.
