| i agree with some of the comments from the original poster.
i thought it was a disgraceful performance t.b.h! apart from graham and wello(who always play their heart out i.m.o) the rest were awful! they did'nt look @r$ed to be there,they were 2nd best in every facet of the game against a not verygood wigan side. not to mention our most "bitter" rivals! it did'nt matter where it was played it was a league game for 2 points and more importantly it was a game against wigan r.l.f.c and if you cant get up for those two reasons then they should'nt be selected. it was like the bad old days when we were mullered by them virtually every time we played them! regards the game on saturday. if you have any negative thoughts before the game then it will stay in your subconcious mind and it will show in your performance and that was clearly the case i.m.o those players need to watch that game to realise how awful they was! we praise them to the hilt when they perform and win games/trophy's and we should be able to "bag" them when they play with no pride or passion for the shirt against our biggest rivals!!

| If the stadium had the roof closed we would have won that game easily. RFL made the wrong call leaving the roof open, we asked for it to be shut, they didnt listen and it burnt us.

| I watched the video back last night and to be honest, we weren't as poor as I thought we were at the game.
Some poor options taken and bad reads in defence from us and some tremendous scrambling defence from Wigan added up to a bad day at the office.
To call the players a disgrace is out of order, but not entirely unexpected from the usual suspects.

| As a leeds fan i rate long as a player, since taking over from goulding he has been superb, unfortunately, a few off the field incidents might take away from his achievements on the field!
players, like everyone, are allowed bad days at the office, and thats what i'd put it down to.

This was the big thing for me. Just before half time, we looked like we were in for an 18 - 12 HT score, but the goon scramble defence was sensational, kept us out and they then went down t'other end and walked in with a huge HT score on us.

| What a massive over reaction.
It was Wigans cup final, they wanted it more. Watching the game again Saints were not as bad as you are all saying.

Was the same last week mate. Top of the league, still in the cup and some of the most promising young players in the game coming through and it's like armageddon on here.
Ridiculous.

I dont agree with you there you were better in the second half and looked at times you were going to come back and win. On Saturday Wigan Clicked for the first time for a long time and did you Saints what they usually do to every other team dominate them. As for you loss to Bradford well they came out with the easy win mentality happens to all top teams sometimes i am sure it will be normal service this week.

It was the turning point quite clearly. Although you call it scrambling defence half the wigan side were well offside from the play the ball.

That certainly seems to be the message that Saints got out there clear as a bell. The Sky guys tonight on Boots'n'All agreed that Saints didn't really want it, the press men agreed that Saints didn't reall want it, a goodly number of fans on here, elsewhere and IRL agree that they didn't really want it, and Graham and Cunningham at the very least said they didn't really want it. I think we all know that Saints didn't want that win as much as Wigan did, and boy did it show in their performance!
I hope next time they make the decision that they don't really want it, especially against Wigan and particularly in a place that cost serious dosh to get to, that they remember there are fans involved in this and they should want it for the fans if not for themselves.

| If Graham and Cunningham didn't want to play, Potter should have made the decision and dropped them.
What annoys me about many on here is that there have been very few who have said that Wigan played well (and they did). It's all been about excuses for not wanting to play etc.
Yes Saints were poor but were beaten by a far better team on the day. Wigan should have won the Maunday Thursday game, Saints were very fortunate to get away with that one.

Wigan did play very well, some posters here have commented on how good your defense was in particular.

This is the Saints board FFS, not the Wigan board! What do you expect? You want Wigan to be praised? Then go on your own board!
As has been said by others, Wigan played well. However, that doesn't change the fact that we played e. Personally, I would have much preferred us to play out of our skins like we did at the last derby; it would have been a riveting match then, regardless of who won. As it was, I was totally disappointed, switched off by halftime, and was almost as close to tears as Eddie Hemmings, who had clearly looked forward to that match as the highlight of his weekend.
