Injured and what does your comment mean 'Winter is coming' any reference to a player?

I think Tomkins was made to look pretty ordinary today also his "Dark Side" came out a bit too, can't believe the amount of times he ranted at the ref for sod all

| Not bad overall but yet again raw deal from the officials. Wimpy Sam T fouling and continually whispering in the refs ears did not help. Man of Steel - get a grip - play fair first and earn respect. What was on show today was a spoiled brat not getting his way.

| Saw what I needed to see today. Effort, enthusiasm and no little skill. Had Wigan on the racks until the final 15 minutes when the intensity in defence dropped off, coincidently when Kirmond left the field. Still too many brain facts which ultimately cost the team an unlikely victory but I can't criticise too much.
Thought Wood had his best game and also thought Wildie took his opportunity well. Amor MOM for me. Play like that against Salford and London and we should be looking at 4 points.

No you'e not. Very galling for cockayne's pass to be called forward in last 1/4. Must have been inches if it was and I will be taking a look on SL full time at the score under sticks at far end that put them in lead; long way away but player reaching suspiciously far for the ball. Thought alibert piggy backed em back into the game when they needed it myself

To be fair Tomkins, Richards and Farrell where hardly ever going to favour Trinity.

| Can we please vary our kick offs. Why kick to the best offensive runner in the league when we need a solid 2nd half start? Seemed brain dead to me, as did the rest of the kicks to him. Thought cockaine had a shocker maybe due to not trusting his centre's defence, but charnley had 3 walk ins which isn't good enough at this level.

| Smith and Kirmond went off and couldn't come back on so we were down on subs. Webster said after the game that we only had 1 sub left with 20 mins to go.
Ultimately that cost us.
Wigan didn't have those issues so were bound to end stronger than us. Added to that turning the ball over in our half a few times and the defense eventually broke.

| Quote ="PopTart"Poor post catnap.
The team work their booty off and all you can do is search for a way to bitch about other results.
Of course we've had a recent slump but there have been some excellent games this season. But you concentrate on putting them down if that's how you feel.
You must be a joy at parties.
Well done to all today. Great game, decent crowd, nice weather. Unfortunately result didn't follow on but it was worth the entrance money. That's enough for me.'"
Had the team worked their booty off for the games that were winnable we would have been in the top 8, so putting effort into a game that was ultimately unwinnable IMO should not be ample reason to forget what has gone on before.
We shouldn't be praising the players for today's performance, we should be asking them why it wasn't there for the previous two games against teams who are at our level.
I said at the start of the season that I thought this squad had enough ability in it to at least compete for the top 8 and possibly the top 6 depending on a couple of other teams, I stand by that opinion, and as such think that this season has been blown for reasons not known to most of us, say what you want but today's performance proves my point and yet some fans are happy to come away from a game losing without questioning why a performance of today's quality that would have beaten most teams in the league has been missing for most of the season and against teams that are far more beatable than Wigan.

Lyne plays on Cockaynes side , no tries conceded today in Foxies corner.

| Hopefully this performance will illustrate that we do have good back up players to step in when regulars are injured. Wigan had a few missing and i'm sure this will be what people will be focusing on with such a close scoreline. On today's performance, would put Walshaw in front of Lynne. With Collis and Walshaw we have two strong centres. The big thing that surprised me today, was the mighty Wigan army being very covert until the last ten minutes.

I agree. Halibut doesn't inspire confidence. Having said that I have been to games and thought he had got things completely wrong but then thought differently when I have looked at the game on TV.

| Quote ="Sandal Cat"Don't blame the officials for the result but thought we had some hard calls against us.
Thought they only got a penalty which led to a try when Fox was coming back into the line after being injured because Richards protested and Alibert consulted with his linesman. Had it been the other way you feel he would have just played on.
Wigan's last try (which didn't effect the result) was short and then placed over the line which is a double movement and a penalty to us but Alibert and suprisinginly the in goal judge misssed it. Even Wigan fans in hospitality could not believe it.
Overall after the previous 2 weeks I was proud of the team and have no complaints. They "manned up" and if we continue to play the same we should pick up 4 points from our next 2 games.'"
It looked short from where I was at the other end of the ground!

Tomkins was the captain today with Lockers being out injured. Thats why he was speaking to the ref. I think you are being a bit harsh there.

| The score flattered us today. Very impressed with Wakefields efforts. Cant agree with the ref analysis though. Thought we got penalised frequently for holding down but Wakefield were allowed to get away with it but Alibert is always a nightmare and completely clueless and its a point that is always open to opinion. My friend is a Wakey fan and couldnt make the game and listened on the radio and he said the feeling he got was that Wigan got a rough deal with the ref from the commentary. But anyway, congratulations on a spirited performance. You made us look very ordinary today. Youd have killed Cas last week playing like that.

What do you expect when we 'make' all the wigan fans down the side (yes that old chestnut) where the can help a clueless ref make all the decisions.
The bit that riled me was when Amor knocked on and if the away fans hadn't have pointed it out we might have got away with it. They also helped Sir Sam Tomkins every time he needed another penalty.
