He seemed to be all over the pitch, and he was involved in that old fashioned run around early on and regularly alongside Bailey on the other side of the pitch.'"
He was superb last night Carmont. To me he looks to be trying to take more on his shoulders by getting himself involved.
In terms of value for money Carmonts got to be one of if not the best signing we've made in superlague.

Definately. I thought, in a great team effort, he really stood out and looked class. Also I thought he looked very young and energetic for someone whos 30, I know he only started playing late but I think he might end up playing a good few years still yet (hopefully at Wigan)

| We held on to the ball well and were a lot more disciplined which is good to see.
We played fast coherent rugby league and looked a lot more organised in attack and defense. I also noticed a lot of communication amongst the squad as well which is good to see.
Much better Wigan now we have to try to remain consistant week in week out.

| It's been a long while since we've seen that much quality for the whole 80. I thought Carmont was outstanding as was Sam Tomkins. Phil Bailey was on fire in defence, his tackle count must have been extremely high.
Great game!

| No idea where that performance came from. The lack of quality from Bardford helped, but we haven't seen attacking rugby of that quality in years, it was a million times better than what we saw vs Quins.
Piggy's distribution, and the fact that we are so strong down the left hand side meant we were able to run over Bradford last night.
If we play that like every week, I'd be happy even if we lost, though that said, if we [ido[/i play like that every week we won't lose many.
Attacking rugby; love it!

| To be fair, we have seen glimpses of a more expansive style of play in the past 3 matches, but only in very short spells.
Last night was the first time we combined that with an aggressive defence and applied it throughout the game.
Nobby said in post match that we stuck to the game plan last night which seems to indicate that this is how he has been coaching them to play - and not in fact the one out 5 drives and a poor kick we've been seeing.
Key factors last night:
1) Dummy runners & support - In the past 5 years, I have never seen wigan play with so much off the ball support.
2) attitude: Aggressive and positive from start to finish.
3) Defence: Moved up much quicker, agressive and no obvious weak spots out wide - unlike the first 3 matches.
4) Kicking Game: Far better kicking game, Pat put in some good long kicks, Piggy some nice kicks for Ainscough to chase and Sam, all kicked well. First time in a very long time.
5) Pace - we finally seem to have pace all over the team and can break from deep. Amos is fast and runs in hard - no going sideways from him, he always runs straight and tries to break teh tackle.
