Unsung hero for you guys tonight, best game i have ever seen him play.

I hold my hand up to slating him, mainly because he is a lad who could have been a real big player in the game but never knuckled down, looking at him physically he looks a different player to the Bibey of previous seasons. He looks leaner and much more effective.

His first spell tonight was crucial in my opinion in laying the platform for the win tonight.

I really hope he can carry his form on throughout the year, with another frontrow injury it looks like you could do with him.

Wilkes another lad who really performed tonight.

Yep Ricky went well tonight and long may it continue.

Agreed thought Bibey, along with Wilkes were tremendous tonight. Stosic has been a revelation so far and to lose him so early and not see him return meant others had to put their hands up.

Thought those two were terrific up front tonight against Warrington's star studded pack!

We could have wilted after Stosic went off, particularly with the bench we had - but they didnt = they all stood up to be counted and showed fantastic heart.

Ricky had a very good game tonight hope he can carry on all season like that

well done ricky you will be getting my man of the match vote stood up to be counted when we needed him most, losing stosic so early best game for the club in my opinion many good performances but gets my vote.

Agree that Ricky Bibey had a very good game tonight as did Oli Wilkes who's form is unrecognisable from last year.

I thought Bibb and Pitts did very well too, both of them made a similar, naive mistake early in the 2nd half but other than that they did great.

With Snitch and Ferguson in the second row our Academy was well represented in the pack.

Is it any coincidence Ricky's wife has left the backroom staff? He must now be playing for a full contract for 2010





Great game tonight, id give my right nut for a coach as educated as Kear at Wigan.

Best performance from Bibey in a Trinity shirt, he was excellent.,

Thought the forwards were excellent, we keep asking the likes of Wilkes to bust a gut for more than their share and they keep stepping up and keep saying "give me the ball". They were truly excellent. I don't think many players and teams could play with just 14 men for the majority of the game, play, play better than their opponents and knock them for 50.

Difference between the teams: attitude. And of course John Kear...that first 30 minutes was the brilliantly disciplined, playing to our strenghts and locking the game out.

Same old Warrington: Lowes same as a coach as he was a player; his attitude stinkis and he thinks shouting at people will win games.

Excellent.

See my post entitled the Bradford Legacy on the Wigan forum.

A fantastic win to night, Bibey was brilliant Tonight, weldone to that man

Played well last week also, does alot of unseen work!

Yeah best game I have seen him play, hope he can keep it up

What i liked about both Bibey and Wilkes was they cut out the stupid/unforced errors, Bibey ontop of this ran great lines.

Pitts made a few silly errors but its all part of the learning curve.

Pitts tried to make it happen to make himself look better than expected to perform, at the mo he hasn't no need to push that boundary just do the right things at the right time and it will fall into place, for someone so young to be put in the limelight must tough

I think he tried to do things tha would pay off and work at the junior level. He will soon learn and games like that can only give him confidence which is crucial.

I have being one of Bibeys biggest critics on this board but last night he had a fine game more of this and I will be eating humble pie I hope I have to
Well played Mr Bibey

I'll eat some humble pie with you.


Good init

During the game I actually want the likes of Bibey and Wilkes to get the ball! Don't think either of them made a single error last night. I'll be able to confirm that when I watch a third rerun later this maorning.

Slightly O/T, I've stuck up for Bibey on here but last week expressed my disappointment with Bibb saying he looks uninterested and lethargic, not so last night, he stood up to be counted and did his job manfully. Credit where credits due, me too eating humble pie this morning, but God it tastes good!

RICKY BIBEY PLEASE STAND UP.


I have been one of his biggest critics not just this season but last as well.


But last nights performance was brilliant keep it up RICARDO !!!!!!

His best game in a Trinity shirt by a country mile.

Please please please continue this form and attitude week in week out RB.

Great effort, performance and commitment by the fella and he actually attacked the line with pace and aggression which was excellent to see.

Long may it continue.

There's nothing wrong with the things he tried to do but the time and the place were wrong. His attempted offload came after we had been under sustained pressure and he was on our 40mtr line with 30+ minutes left in the game. It could have been one of those game turning incidents that seem innocuous at the time. When you trace back to where you began losing the momentum you often find such a mistake at the foundation.

Experience will teach him better but I hope he carries on trying to make offloads, just when it's the right time.

Correct.

I hear Jay's doing a bit of coaching so that will help him understand and learn, he will make a very good player IMO.

said the same thing. wrong time but the right idea. offloading is one area which i feel we fall behind the other teams, although it may be the game plan to maximise ball retention i suppose.
really like the look of pitts, he seems pretty mobile for a big lad
