Like I say it would have surprised me if he did receive a ban,however 2 saints players have been banned !

Isa should be nowhere near the centres.

Would zero surprise you? It’s a man’s game not tick and pass.

You must be talking about a different tackle to me too. The one you are on about didn't exist. Just Saints fans clamouring for any feeble excuse because they can't hide behind how bad their squad is past the 17.

Well done for the win but what tripe about a bad squad.

Somebody is forgetting how poor you were with the ball in attack with fewer injuries in the backs last year. . . . .

I guess we’ll see how rubbish our squad is come the play-offs.

Obviously I'm very happy with the win but I don't think you will make as many mistakes and not convert your half chances once the playoffs commence irrespective of how many of your backline are missing.
Our passing still isn't as crisp as it can be and with Tommy and Havard back I'm pretty confident that we can improve on last night's performance too.
Hopefully we will meet in the final but if one us doesn't make it I would not be too surprised.

We were bad last year full stop.

I think the poor attack was more to do with Lam and Hastings rather than injuries.
Last year we weren't even as good as appalling.

Mago on last night’s performance.

That was last season this is a new one

Pretty surprising, aye. I’ll give one thing to the match review panel, their inconsistency makes them harder to predict! All in the name of entertainment I suppose

Don’t imagine there was any chance of Knowles/Sironen playing on Monday anyway, good for a giggle though

Cheating Wigan b******

Fewer injuries



Must have dreamt us missing our entire back line at one point last season

And RL only started when SL started apparently

Only other option would be to go with KPP at centre and Isa at second row.

Not surprising at all unless you are biased.

Isa would not be in my 17.

No field and French = nilled in the playoffs and plenty of other times too.

Your nilled team vs Leeds the backs were
1 Zak Hardaker
2 Jake Bibby
3 Willie Isa
4 Oliver Gildart
5 Liam Marshall
6 Harry Smith
7 Jackson Hastings

Anyway, all I was saying is that calling the squad that is top of the league after having lots of injuries all year “awful” is pretty dumb, I’m sure you’ll agree.

Last season under Lam not this season under Peet.
Everybody knows we was crap then.
You started this season as the greatest team ever and you get a few injuries so every time you lose you blame it on-
Injuries,ref etc
Now you are top of the league because you have won more than anyone so why the constant bleating about players missing that is why people are laughing at your lot.
If you do win the GF fair play, in your eyes it will be fantastic because of your injuries if you lose it will be because of said injuries.

All Adrian Lams fault.

They’re so good now they’d probably beat the Australian National team.

I really hope that if we do get to the Final that we stand a chance. Seems like they’ll only have to turn up to beat us.

See what you did there,no one and I mean no one has said that Wigan would beat the Australian National team or any team from Australia but from your side of the hill it has been said you could beat any team anywhere also noted that you have the best players from 1-17 and Wigan are bang average .

And if you hadnt noticed with a new coach we have won the CC in his first season (coach of the year is my prediction).So maybe yes we have improved that much.
As pointed out if you do win the GF fair play because who ever wins is rightly the champions.

I know it was tongue in cheek, but it really was all his fault. As much as you say otherwise.

That side had two previous MOS, an England international centre and two guys who I think could make this years dream team (Smith and Marshall). Yet they didn't score a single point in 80 mins.

The guy was an absolute fraud of a coach.

I dont think anyone has said their squad is awful either, just that it isn't as good as they think it is.

Good choice from FTV too of our back line. Probably one of the strongest we put out that.

Isn't that proving the opposite to what you're saying FTV? That we were nilled even with a very strong backline shows that it wasn't down to injuries but either poor coaching or poor form. I can't see how that has anything to do with injuries.

We were without French and others at the start of this season but the difference was marked compared to last.
