Our coach was the difference today, make no mistake.

Warrington sussed us out at the back end of the first 40 minutes by sucking in our defence and King / Myler really exposed us down Charnley and Joels side.

Half-time team talk changed all that.

Whoever takes over from Madge has almighty big shoes to fill.

The footage on the red button of the team celebrating in the sheds just shows what a great culture this man has produced at the club long may it continue through Wane.

it sucks not having the red button

Somebody put the red button stuff on youtube

also even tho Warrington is only round the corner.I like how they all stayed in the hotel last night and all today before setting off to warrington ,Keeping the team together

didnt realise that - another smart move imo.

there was a thread a week or so ago about the possibility of Madge being a legend - i think if he goes on to win the CC he will be.

they all stopped in the Haydock Thistle last night and was in there all today up until the game defo smart move

Just seen Smith's comments about Solomona's injuries and how he has warned about our technique! Maguire's comments 'nothing in it'.

They go to a hotel prior to every away game

terrible thing that -- tackling solomona round legs and not letting him offload!!!!!

Cheating wigan scum

I loved the pics on the locker doors! Reminding the lads how good they are before they took to the field. Every little detail counts! Well done Michael Messiah!

Wasn't much said at half time by the looks of it (BBC) The changing rooms before the game said it all. Wigan's was calm, players sat down and some walking around for strapping etc. Warringtons changing room was 100 miles an hour for me (nervous energy being spent wrong???) In the tunnel pre KO, Wigan players looked focused, Wire players had eyes everywhere (Check the eyes of the wigan players to the Warrington ones if you have it recorded). Half time, Wigan sat down watching something??? no one looked to be talking. Warrington was full of activity. Two totally different changing rooms pre match, mid match.

TBF at HT they were probably rightly buzzing whilst we would have felt slightly dejected.

It's a proper er that you can't record it! I mean again, bit like sky, we got a 20 minute pre match and about 3 minutes post match on the actual BBC 2 broadcast. I'd prefer it the other way round if they are that pushed for time!

For those that did not see the red button bit there was a good 5 minutes chat regarding the fans that stayed on after the game singing. Nobby had high praise for the "group of fans" that do this at away games week in week out. Again like the Saints away game all you could hear was the fans singing.

Awesome atmosphere, suffering for it now though, absoulutely no voice.

Its becoming a tradition in big games to stay behind until we get kicked out. Love it.

Tad disappointed that 'We shall not be moved' didn't kick in after the tannoy message 'Will the Wigan fans kindly leave the stadium?'

Thought that. Should have been greeted with a massive cheer, followed by we shall not be moved. The Dalle Cavese is becoming a club anthem now, it was carnival time at Saints and yesterday.

Personally i think it was a couple of things that changed the path of the second half and not the half time team talk from Maguire, we came out in the 2nd half and started off like we finished the first half by scoring first. The first big turning point of the 2nd half was us losing Solomona, you struggled to cope with him when he was on the pitch.

The other bit of fortune you had in that 2nd half was Mcilorum getting a cut to his head, that meant Leuluai came back on and we struggled to cope with him throughout the 80 mins. They were the big 2 turning points in the 2nd half for me as well as Joel Monaghan failing to convert that interception.
