| We need to start copying their defensive coaching. I'd get Gruntfuttock and his Mrs to get photographing their training sessions once the stadium is built. Their defense in this game tonight has been utterly sensational. It's so good it's mind boggling.
As a team, they are, individually at least, utterly average. Several of their players, as individuals, wouldn't interest many SL sides. They've only got a couple of players tonight you would say are anything approaching dangerous. Their attack tonight, and most nights I've seen them, is utterly rubbish. They are however an amazing collective unit, one that looks like it could defend until October and still not concede enough to win a game against them.
I reckon you could drive a bus at that line and it wouldn't break more than once or twice a game. We can't stop Louie Anderson hopping on one leg.

| D wins you games in any sport. And theirs is a model of excellence. Had Roberts not been doing impressions of Richie Mathers, Huddersfield would not have scored if they kept playing for a year.

No one can ever accuse me of being biased or afraid to praise a rival club. I says what I see, as I've always done.

Then why did they let Hudds fluff four try scoring opportunities? C'mon. It was good but it wasn't impenetrable! Hudds were their own worst enemies tonight.
It was good watching Amos deal with those bombs! He made Meli look competent!

They were missing the current Man of Steel and the current young player of the year who is their best player by a distance. They also had one of their starting props missing. And still they held Huddersfield to 6. On this seasons form we'd be lucky to limit the Giants to 6 tries never mind 6 points.

Huddersfield let themselves down tonight re- the fluffing of tries etc. They showed Wigan's defence is penetrable. they could have had three or four tries and fluffed them. Saying that though Wigan got the rub of the green on many occasion tonight. It's the end of the season that counts.
Hope Cas can beat the Bulls on Sunday to take them back to the top

They do that better than we do as well. What's wrong with just admitting their defense is, to quote The Miz, awesome?

Cheers fella, an unbiased opinion, so refreshing on here. I had a text conversation with a well respected poster on here at half time, and I thought we would struggle in the second half, but fair play to the Wigan lads. The team spirit was outstanding.
I hope that the Saints team have the same resolve tomorrow.

Spot on.
The only team this season so far who have really impressed me has been Warrington, and then only when they played Leeds. But then that was a match between two attacking sides whereas tonight I almost fell asleep watching two defensive sides practising their rolling mauls.

You are really trying my lent patience to the upmost.
Did you think the Huddersfield try should have been awarded? Honestly.

Can I just make sure there is no confusion here. It was NOT me sexting ( ) Rogues. But no, I can't think of anyone else on here that would come under the banner of 'well respected' either.

That's made my day even better.
Got the washing dried, got the lawn cut and a Wigan win.

| I thought Wigan was very very good last night. There defence is the best in super league by a mile and as everyone knows, defence wins games.
The young lads at Wigan look like they going to keep Wigan a top side for years to come. Charnley IMO will be England centre in the next few years. His loan spell at hull KR and from what I've seen of him back at Wigan I think this lad will be class.
I couldn't help but think how much better wigans young lads are better than ours. Wheeler and lomax IMO ain't going to be half the players charnley and marsh will be. I also had the same feeling watching warringtons young lads last week.
Maybe we've just hyped up the likes of wheeler and lomax because I don't think they are half the players other clubs are producing.

| Some people are really bitter.
Wigan had 7 or 8 players missing yet still went to Huddersfield and won comfortably. The try they did concede was from a kick (debateable try anyway) and as they were dominated in possession, they had to defend their line a fair bit. Their spirit and attitude in defence is extremely impressive and when they have the ball they move the ball with speed and create an overlap easily. On evidence so far, they're the best team in SL (with Warrington 2nd) and unless we buck our ideas we won't be challenging them. Luckily, you don't win SL in March.
