Ainscough and Tomkins.

Two Wigan youngsters who want to play (and can!).


Nobby should start both next week.

Here here.

I was at a lovely wedding and missed the game

Dont be silly, we'll end up winning or something

I thought Pryce did well considering he is only about 70% fit.

think every wigan fan agree's with you there bk! do you honestly think noble would do somthing as crazy as that though??

with mathers back from suspension maybe richards fit aswell think young ainscough will find himself back in the reserves!

The obvious positives have to be Ainscough and Tomkins. Ainscough beat more players in one game than the fans fave Richards has done in his time here at the club.

The other positive is Feka - I used to worry what the Wigan pack would do if Fielden got hurt, not any more - thsi guy is more important to the team than any of the other 16, take him out of the side and there is absolutely zero go forward.

so did i, he got in amongst it.

Tomkins, feka, pryce and especially ainscough.

Thought Ainscough and Feka were the only ones looking like doing any damage.

What hit home more than anything last night was how small our pack is. The cas pack were coming out the other side of the tackle enabling them to get a quick play the ball whereas our pack (bar Feka) were getting put flat on their a*ses.

People say we only do five drives and a kick but when our forwards can't get out their own half without the assistance of a penalty kick what exactly do you want them to do in their own 40. When we did get in their half we did play a bit but I suppose that goes against the stereotype.

How did you enjoy your last ever live Wigan game last night?

(Unless you come back of course)



* Any chance I could come with you?




Jammy git is emigrating to Perth next week.

He should, but will he?

Add to that Feka, Fielden, O'carroll and for the most part Tommy. They are the players who have not done anything wrong at all this season imo.

Ainscough was awesome last night. I came away from the game p1ssed off for the loss but chuffed Ainscough got his chance and took it with both hands and showed we have an absolute gem. Just need Sam to get his chance now.

ainscough and prycey on the wings where fantastic- ainscough awesome

in the pack, ocarroll feka and tomkins where the only ones making any go forward, glad hansen got a bit more game time, felt sorry for hock because he could of caused some damage last night.

riddell shown signs of improvement aswell, he looked to take the cas line on, he is definately carrying a knock though.

Agree with all the comments

And if noble puts mathers back in against quins i'm going to go mad

Ainscough
Feka
Pryce

Were the positives. Pryce should be on the bench next week with Richards back in the team.

Feka was awesome last night, one of his best games for us. Battered them every time he took the ball up.

He's been playing like that in the other 2 games aswell.

He wasn't happy at all when he got taken off just before half time.

ainscough was immense last night, and should get a place for next week, as for joel, well he's alright running into a gap but did nothing in defence for me last night...and some of his carries into the opposition last night were lame at best....

Aiscough was quality last night. My only problem with him is his height so we need to add protection to his wing at kicks. We have had this problem before with Dallas, Robinson and Carney. One thing Aiscough does bring is bottle. He ran it hard all night coming into field looking for the ball. I say stick with him on one wing with Roberts on the other and Paddy to Full Back for the quins game. Feka looked awesome again going forward and i know many people comment on his lack of game time and tackle count but he was the one forward making good yards apart from Hock. Hock was playing well prior to injury and ran the ball hard. Pitty he got injured but credit to him for having the guts to come back on. I don't know where all the Fielden loving is comingfrom. The guy is one of if not our biggest earner and got knocked about by second rate players such as Feather. Piggy showed glimpses but not convinced and Roberts needs to show more effort. Pryce looked decent but will reserve judgement until we get him 100% fit (if we ever do).

What on earth is the logic for taking off Feka 4 minutes before half time when he'd obviously have a break at the interval anyway?

There isn't any. Same as bringing Coley on with 2 mins to go.

His Height is not a problem IMO

look at Robinson and dallas.hes very explosive and powerful i was very impressed

Because Noble plays to 'his' clock, players are not interchanged to suit the game unless of injuries.

Positives were Ainscough, Pryce, Tomkins, Feka, Fielden. O'Carroll put himself aout too.

Mathers better not play next week in the place of Ainscough or there will be blood. Pat to fb, Roberts and Ainscough wings and Mathers can go on loan to St Judes!
