Whatever faults Max has I've never seen him have as cr@p a game as Walker has tonight.

You will never hear me moan about max best full back at club

Agree, so frustrating when the middles defended their gonads off.

Against Salford, where everyone was saying we played well, Max was in the halves and was good with ball in hand and did some great cover tackling. Something Gigot doesn't do.

he wasn’t good enough because he’s not the best full back at the club that’s why and on what basis do you think he’s good enough for your support he’s hardly played a game. Also we lost but your happy that pretty sums up our club and the mentality of people watching

I've seen Walker play before funnily enough and I was happy with the improvement and effort not the result.
The fact that you aren't happy would suggest you never will be because we are never going to win every game.

We did well, the old defence out wide is still a big problem and as been for quite sometime. I have no problem with Walker I thought his confidence grew but let’s face it there as been little continuity and like many he has been in and then out of the team.
If you want to look at defensive problems how many tackles did Gigot miss. He is a luxury and if he is to be accommodated in the team we need to work out a defensive structure to cover for him.

I liked walker last year when playing for London his attacking play was very good ! But has it been coached out of him while he's been here.

You been listening to the commentary, Gigot was unbelievably lazy and let Farrell run past him.

Re: Wigan squad : Fri Sep 25, 2020 9:26 pm  

Apparently Max got dropped for jumping out of the way of tackles last week. Cudjoe waltzed straight past Gigot last week when he was in the centre.

Where did his confidence grow where he stood and watched powell dart over or same woth gildart or where he fired ball at johnstone or even where in effect he missed an open goal dont like knocking players but he was truley awful tonight and gutless

Re: Wigan squad : Fri Sep 25, 2020 9:36 pm  

Well ultimately another defeat but at least it was a much better against one of the top clubs. Most put a good shift in, good to see TJ back and doing well. The left side combo was dangerous. Walker was awful though and as for Gigot, sorry i just don’t see it. The bloke is downright lazy and vastly over-rated. We didn’t do enough with the mountain of possession we had at times but a small step forwards from last week at least.

I hope Miller keeps the urgency and the ability to take it to the line for the rest of the season, whether he does depends on if there's a support player beside him, after he's got the defenders interested.
Crowther showed how easy it is, when supplying the pass for Arona's try.
