First half was good from Wigan, particularly on defense. Second half, especially the start wasn't. Me and my son were screaming for Flower, MM and Crosby to come back on and when they did things tightened up and in the end Wigan were in control again but such a weak bench is a concern for the playoffs.

We have Taylor to come back which helps but if Williams is out long term we really don't have anyone to bring on who can cause the opposition problems and it's a case of hoping they don't concede points with the 1st choice are rested on the bench.

They were available last week as well as I don't think Bowen was injured.

Wane claimed Bowen had a "knock" last week.

On the south coast with a load of retired folk. Makes me feel young.

You must have watched a different game to me. Defensively we were very good and restricted Leeds to one lucky try. Leeds also defended very well IMO. It was a good intense game, not quite at play off level but not far off. It's the kind of match I want SL to be every week.

It was good to see performances from Green and MM as we'll need those two back to form and fitness in the play offs.

I watched the same game as dave1612. I thought our attack was woeful. Our forwards (especially when flower, Crosby went off ) were getting monstered by Leeds, Pettybourne is never a Prop as long as I've got a hole in the proverbial and as for Hughes well let's just say I hope gelling is fit for next week. On a positive note I did think our goal line defence was very sharp and burgess/ flower were superb.

Yes, I'll agree our defence looked good but did Leeds really throw anything at it? Leeds were so poor and looked clueless in attack as did we for the most part. Thought we won the game because we weren't quite as bad as they were.

I've just watched the game and to be honest after seeing it again I take back a few things I said earlier. It was quite a good game and although our attack wasn't as crisp as it could have been it definitely wasn't woeful. The forwards played really well but we did look second best when flower/Crosby weren't on the field. So overall a pretty good performance and a vast improvement from the last couple of games.

I didn't think either team was as good as they can be last night. Wigan played at a high intensity, and were excellent in the first half, and probably should have been further ahead, saying that I don't recall too many scoring opportunities. 2nd half I thought Wigan were quite poor and had Leeds been able to stop dropping the ball in good field position it could have been a lot closer, but Wigan didn't need to get out of 2nd gear in the 2nd half, and comfortably deserved the win.
Hopefully, with a full team out the result will be different if we meet in the play offs.
