A good win last night. I thought that we did well to weather an early storm when Salford were making easy meters and we were scrambling from the off. we took a while to start going forward and that was largely through the backs. Hankinson had some sound relieving carries and the backs seemed a bit more coherent. Perhaps it was the warm temperature but both teams looked a bit lethargic. Our forwards are still not making much in the form of post contact meters and on the edge we were looking for a man to give an option whilst the ball carrier ran down some blind alleys. When Sammut came on we tightened up and started to look more cohesive.
The funniest moment of the game was the interception. Was that really the player who went 80 meters for Leeds just a few weeks ago, or am I mistaken?


It was Inu that made the break he is descriptively slow looking at him and Lolohea they are in poor shape for professional players. i cant believe that he went in for that try for Leeds

Re: Salford at home : Sat Jun 29, 2019 2:35 pm  
I thought Powell was our best player and Partington looks a little better but I don't agree with several posters re Clubb who probably made one run where he seemed determined to break the line his remaining runs were again for me slow and lacklustre.

I cannot see Lam starting with Sammut as he wont drop TL or Powell to allow Sammutt to start.

I thought Salford were appalling with the number of mistakes they made and if I'm totally honest although we are playing better to think that we are 4th in the league sums up the poor general quality of the competition.

Am I correct in thinking that ZH took one of the conversions last night? If so why did he do so?

Some negative people on here. Cheer up!

Look at it this way we are 4 and have not hit any form. We didn’t play that well last year until towards the end of the season.

Hardaker took the kick as Hankinson took a knock and was having treatment.

Go have a drink enjoy the sun and enjoy being 4th

I was wondering whether the plan is now to have Zak kick on the left side of the field and Hankinson on the right.

NO, as said above Hanky was gettting treatment at the time of said kick, He still kicked 4 from 5 iirc

That was never Inu. Someone must have sneaked a cardboard cut out of him onto the pitch instead :roll: .

Sadly I completely agree with that. With the exception of Saints the general quality is poor. Even some of London’s high scoring but high conceding wins are generally poor.

Don't think it's negative Azza just an opinion as I see it.
I'm not really a stats type but the completion rate for Salford must be embarrassing for a full time professional outfit.

The number of unforced errors by most teams is almost comical. A good team would have whipped that Salford performance with a score considerably higher than 28.

Happy with the win but seriously if that was a performance to start people thinking of of GF aspirations that I need to start smoking something a bit strong

I agree that on a warm, dry evening - in perfect conditions in fact - the lack of core skills on show from both Wigan and Salford was dire.

This is very much the story across SL, with the exception of Saints. Every fixture is littered with basic errors from start to finish. Professional wages are being paid for semi-amateur standards.

To me, the blame goes three ways:

1) The players either aren't good enough or aren't professional enough to focus on their job. Ryan Sutton is a classic example, the guy showing bags more quality when faced with a situation of 'get fitter and perform better or face deselection'.

2) The coaches are mostly lacking. Shaun Wane was by far the best coach in the UK to get what he did out of that Wigan team. But there were areas where he too was weak, e.g in terms of playing exciting rugby, crowds dwindling as a result. That said, there wasn't another coach in SL I'd have happily traded for Wane.

3) The RFL's all-round incompetence has been documented many times, but their biggest crime was allowing British RL to become a poor man's game, failing to fund it adequately, thus ensuring that we get third pick of all involved, players, coaches etc ... after the NRL and more embarrassing still, after RU.
