Is it really the case that every time Wigan lose a game, certain fans are going to demand Shaun Wane's resignation? No doubt these will be the same people who used to slag Whelan off for chopping and changing coaches all the time.
the team have been worrying about facing the might of Ah Van all week, good job he wasn't playing today or the score line would of most certainly been worse for us, thank the man upstairs for small mercies
I agree that he clearly showed no respect to the opposition but Madge was guilty of that on occasion too as is every Coach for example 2009 (Noble) we got beat by Crusaders because we expected to win after we won comfortably at home and the games under Madge against Cas and Bradford shows all coaches are guilty and all teams are guilty of showing no respect and easing off.
This is a blip and remember we are usually the team that get beaten in the upset like this maybe its something that Wigan cant get away from we underestimate/disrespect the opposition on occasion but you can bet next week we will be back as strong as ever.
[quote="Mark"]Great game of rugby league. Fantastic atmosphere, Wigan were breathtaking and dominant in all areas for the first 25 minutes, coupled with us making alot of dumb mistakes,then fortunately they brought McIlorum on which helped us back into the game. I thought some of the tries we scored to get us within two we're out of this world stuff. Towards the end we had to force it a little and we had a few things go wrong, i.e Monas kick on the first for King and Solomona going off who was causing havoc. Wigan were clinical in their eventual execution of us. Proud of Wire today and gave us a little glimpse to the future. Silverwood was awful as per, but I expect no less. Tomkins is a world class player and by far the best english player in SL. Wigan are a champion side and would be a worthy winner of taking our title as challenge cup. Good luck over the next month and a bit.[/quote]
Yep, you'd looked the form team in the league up until now, but hey, you lost one game while resting players.
Not only should you sack Wane but you should sack every player who played. And Tomkins. Definitely sack him. Immediately. For not playing. While Leeds still have some cap space.
Failing that, some knee pads for the OP to prevent injury from the underside of his/her desk.
