They was a case for an 8 point try. He slid in with his foot to try stop clifford from grounding it.

I don’t know about sliding in it looked more like he was also trying to kick the the ball out of Clifford’s hand which you’d think would constitute dangerous play.

Dwyer may be of more use on a dry, hot day, you know one of those weekends we see once a year

What serving drinks?
Realisticly most fans can see now why Leeds released him.
The odd good run from Dummy half doesnt cut in in S/L

You really do talk some s.hite. Satae going through the motions . Did you see any of his runs tonight?. Properly won't see much of you this week as we won.

you mean like i said that Hoy was disappointing and i had seen more from Litten in a 20 minute stint at full back than Hoy.
Your wig flew off in rage but whats your opinion now?
I am a fan of Chris Satae but his defence tonight was poor.The game is also about defending and his defensive effort wasnt there.

Funny how Bonaire averages about 20 posts on a match when we lose. Yet win and it drops to 0. Funny that

Hard to argue with much of your post. Was a deserved win that was earned by effort & hard work as a team. Some very good performances by some individuals and some not so brilliant too.
Good to see us finally playing & kicking smarter and getting some repeat sets off the back of that.

Think the changes at half time bringing Trueman & Dwyer on seemed to unsettle us a little and take us time to get reorganised.

Think the FB position is Littens to lose, on current form Hoy has to bide his time to get back at in at 1. Though that’s fir Smith to manage in terms of what’s best for the team and a young player.

Really struggle to understand what we do so differently to the opposing teams when it comes to 6 agains

It was a deseved and well earned win particularly as we are carrying three or four players who would not get anywhere near a place in most other S/L teams.
Seriously how does Lane keep his place?

Re: Wigan away : Fri May 05, 2023 1:18 am  

What a win and I said if we keep Wigan to 16 points or less then we win regardless !

That win was just what we needed and yes we can 100% secure league safety at Wakey next week then beat Cas in the Cup

Clifford was class and Mint was super

Lane - mentioned many times in this thread - made 1 metre in the 2nd half

Missed tackles on 8 mins and late in first half - the 8th minute miss alarmed me greatly as well as the lack of metres in the 2nd half

Why can’t we coach him to perform better ?

Really pleasing performance in the conditions and great to get the win against the club at the top of the league on a good winning run. I thought we'd blown it when we fluffed that chance near the end and Wigan matched up field but the players found that extra energy to hang on. We asked for more commitment and effort and we've had that in spades in the last two games.

Clifford was excellent, Litten once more showed what a fine prospect he is, Houghton again rolled back the years and Trueman though obviously rusty came up with that important play in the last minute.

Hopefully Hoy is back next week. Personally I'd have him at full back and Litten on the wing.

Agree on the Litten point. It strengthens us on the wing. Hard to believe he's only a teenager.

Going into half-time I thought we were dead men walking so did terrific to hold on.
Thought Clifford was excellent and big raps for Sutcliffe as well.
Hoy is our full-back, back he comes.

Sutcliffe proving to be a very good signing.
