Fancy doing this for one last time @samtomkins1? For old time’s sake?

OH MY WORD 🤯🤯🤯🤯 YORK HAVE EQUALISED IN THE 102ND MINUTE TO WIN PROMOTION 😱 Watch LIVE NOW at DAZN.com/NLTV 📺

@JamesRoughley I still don’t think it’s panic stations. It’s been a bleak month for sure, but come the cup semi final we’ll have a better team than we did Good Friday, where we were more than comfortable after 70 minutes 🫣 we’ll be reyt

Assume the wing choice is to prepare for next week?

@wiganrlfans The most obvious professional foul and sin bin you’ll see. Compounded by us deciding to try a Hail Mary play on the zero tackle straight after. That was our chance to gain momentum and pressure. Bubble immediately burst and they scored off it. Decided the whole game.

Shame that. One half back we ended up playing with so not going too deep into us losing this. But at 12-6 when Keighran broke that cannot be a set restart. Arguably a sin bin but has to be a penalty. A pivotal moment.

@wiganrugbyfans If his game plan was to have an unused sub you at least pick Noah to cover an issue in the backs. How’s he getting every decision so wrong?

I know we're down on troops here but our best prop from last week hasn't made it onto the field. Could have moved Havard into back row to try to add a bit more of a carrying threat out wide. Don't understand flogging the same middles when we're not threatening

We have to question why Peet picked a forward on the bench he had no intention of playing - again. If that was his game plan all along you carry Noah on the bench which would have covered the Marshall situation. STOP PICKING UNUSED FORWARDS.

@WiganWarriorsRL @ToteRacing Please please please defend with AK at centre. Makes so much more sense on that edge. Farrell defend at second row, Partington defend as a halfback. PLEASE.

📄 𝐓𝐄𝐀𝐌 𝐍𝐄𝐖𝐒 Here are your Wigan Warriors to take on Warrington Wolves at the Halliwell Jones Stadium! @ToteRacing | #WWRL #SLWARWIG

Happy Jake Wardle day 🍒⚪️🏉

@architectom89 @johnnywsports @WWRLC Yep, we had an edge defence of Partington/Farrimond/Eckersley/Sambou in that order. Would have been much better with AK in for Jack. Small change but having at least one common pairing adjacent to each other would have made a massive difference.

@LewisEaves @johnnywsports @WWRLC This is how I saw it too. Why we didn't play AK on the right, where he normally defends, with farrimond moving to the left I don't know. It's not like Farrimond is adding anything in defence anyway

What are the odds he moves faz to right centre to avoid playing sambou

@wiganrugbykings I can see his three brain cells working overtime from the south stand when he just stands still with the ball in front of the defence 😂

Just read someone say Kaide Ellis has been playing like he’s been hit with a tranquilliser dart before he enters the field and I’ve never seen anything more accurate in my life 😂

@johnnywsports @WWRLC I’d say we missed AK’s defence on the edge last week. Even though his defensive reads have been suspect at times recently, he needs to be back in at centre to firm up that edge for me. It got ripped to pieces against CASTLEFORD.

@LewisEaves @WWRLC I thought AK was fine. He was predominantly left sided (Faz’s side) - and a lot of the issues precipitated from the overall performance of the team His brain fart attempt at 4020 is arguably a coach issue in my book. He needs license to play but not attempt the near-impossible

@WWRLC There’s other options for the halves as I just don’t think Keighran worked there at all last weekend.

@LewisEaves Didn’t even realise that. So unless he gives Vaughan his debut he’s putting him there. He’s a war criminal

@TommyWAFC I’d agree with the Field move if Wardle isn’t back. But the link up play between Field and Wardle as fullback and centre is too good to separate. I’d stick with Keighran in the halves if Wardle is available. Field at 6 if he isn’t.

If all are back fit, I'd go: Hodkinson Eckersley Keighran Wardle Marshall Field Farrimond Thompson O'Neil Havard Farrell Nsemba Partington McDermott, Mago, Ellis & Forber

@WiganWarriorsRL So does this mean Wardle at centre and Farrell in the halves?!?!?

🔢 Head Coach Matt Peet has named his squad to face Warrington Wolves in Betfred Super League this Friday. ⬇️ Matrix Fitness | #WWRL #SLWARWIG

Now that the dust is settled and team news will be out tomorrow. I’ll stick my neck out and say we need to try Field in the halves with Noah at fullback (or vice versa). Stubborn Peet is likely to pick the exact same 17 on Friday though isn’t he 🫠

@DrewDarbyshire Wigan players have to attempt to tackle to get suspended I imagine.

Seven players from six different clubs have been charged by the match review panel following Round Eight - none from Wigan and no suspensions across Super League this week. wigantoday.net/sport/rugby-le…

@Lowtonsaint Defensively inept. Decision making very poor.

@LewisEaves What did Sambou do that was so bad?

Absolutely horrendous. That team has to change next week. Sambou should never play for us again. Vaughan in at centre. Partington didn’t work at second row. Attitude stinks. Peet still laughing that we’re out of form?

@johnnywsports @CherryWhitePins Castleford at home should not be determined by 2 points is my view. The fact we went for it showed Cas that we weren’t confident and didn’t think we could break them when down there and believed they’d score again. It would have given them a massive confidence lift imo.

@LewisEaves @CherryWhitePins Two thirds agree. If we’re being brutally harsh on our own attacking performance we needed set restarts to threaten their goal line. I’d say kicking (an easy) 2 got points on board and possession more a symptom of having a back line with no consistent threat from left side

2 huge parts of todays game i think was taking O'Neill off after going 8 ahead and in full control. 2nd was the Field no Try. All he had to do was go to the corner and he scores, no need to go closer to the sticks wolith Keighran kicking. Cas got momentum and didn't stop!
