Not going back to the Stoop again this season.

We are a set of very poor physical specimens with tiny, tiny hearts. I have no problem in losing games but I have a massive problem when professional players allow themselves to be bullied, wander around with their heads down and make it clear that they have no enthusiasm or energy for the job put in front of them.

The players were an absolute embarrassment. But so too were the fans. 800 or so out of 3600. And then the very few people (3 or 4?) booing are drowned out by warm applause as the Broncos trot off.

Its so disappointing when you consider the heart and enthusiasm they showed
against the Bulls compared to yesterday. Yes I appreciate the difference in the quality of the opposition but that performance yesterday was undoubtedly one of the worst I have seen from London. And thats saying some thing considering the last few years efforts.
We were saying the first half looked little more than an opposed training session for Wigan. Or should that be unopposed
Credit Wigan though and this Tomkins chappy was as Willow says worth the admission alone..

Oh, and well done to Wigan, the best performance by any team I've seen at the Stoop in many years, reminds me of how St Helens used to play. Although they will be stuffed if Tomkins and Richards leave for the NRL in the next few years.

No we wont, believe me we have a production line of talent at the club, some of our young players from the 19's down to the 16's are as good a crop of players we have had in years, Sam is a brilliant player and will leave a big hole, but no one else in our game has a player of his talent, don't worry about us, we are in safe hands.

Did our juniors win at Wigan recently or have a dreamed that?

Re: v WIGAN (H) : Sun May 19, 2013 2:35 pm  

Did the turncoat Lenighan turn up?

Re: v WIGAN (H) : Sun May 19, 2013 3:05 pm  

As disappointing as yesterday was, it's worth bearing in mind that we were without Robertson, Randall, Lee, Clubb, Channing, Fusi, Melling, Sarginson, JO'c and Colbon (tho who knows what the situation is with Colbon...surely he would have played yesterday if he was fit?)

I doubt there's another team in the league who would have beaten Wigan with so many first choice players out.

Just our luck to have Radio London featuring us (Brian Barwick was there too).
