Can't fault the effort and endeavour tonight but it's another disappointing defeat after leading by 12 and having all that play in the second half. We need more, much much more when we're attacking, too slow, too predictable and too easy to defend against. Having said all that, we didn't get the 50 / 50 calls from Child and the video ref and on another day we'd have just shaded it.

Now, I have given child some justified stick in my time but he was fair tonight. We got some very marginal calls first half

I thought sending the Johnstone knock back to Tupou up to the VR as no try was incorrect. That could have got us back to 18 -18

Miller had a superb game. Absolutely silenced the critics. We have half a decent side. Unfortunately, we are a few rungs down in playing capability from 2018 and the rest have gone up

I agree with that Charlie, I was referring to the Tupou try not given for a knock on and the one where the Wigan guy knocked on under the sticks. There's a 12 point swing there.

I'll bet that performance has upset a few Wakey fans more than a drubbing would have?

Did he? He had some good spells in the first half but behind a dominant pack he failed to create. Gigot same. Said it at the time, a pointless signing.

Didn’t Walker get the ball taken off him, with two in the tackle, whilst in the act of scoring, penalty try, or am I mistaken.

Well played Trin, good effort, they gave it their best shot.
