Stu M: Worryingly for the rest of us, Wigan were unbelievably slick
The pessimistic part of me wonders if they are going to sweep the board again this year especially if the main players stay fit
As the grounds dry up they will score a lot of points with that backline and speed.
It's a good job that Nsemba is tied to a long-term contract because he will have a lot of Australian clubs talking about him even more than they currently do.
Fair play to Wigan for their professionalism and willingness to earn the 2 points
From videos I have seen on social media, Warrington have treated this as a "jolly" with Burgess seemingly on the p*** with Matty Johns and Brian Carney and then videos of him with Beaumont
I would be livid if I was a Warrington fan who had paid to travel, whether they had a great time in Vegas or not.
Another point for me was Carney's behaviour
I really like him as a host, but he's hardly portrayed a professional image of SL
He looked and sounded worse for wear every time he was on TV and when we are trying to sell SL, I don't think it's the right image to convey.
It was good to see us cut loose on a dry pitch
You made the point a couple of weeks ago, that you were / are surprised we havent invested in a decent pitch for the stadium
Personally, as much as i'd like to see us win the lot, i think that's asking a bit too much to be able to peak again for the CC / GF and maintain the consistency to win the LLS
i think we'll be there or there abouts, and if we can get to the finals, we know how to win them now, which is a big factor in the overall outcome
You just need to look at your recent history
Failures in the GF, but once you got that off your back, 4 on the trot, as it almost takes that pressure off the players knowing they can win when it matters
With Wire and now KR, they are getting there, but until they win the big one, they will always have that nervousness / anxiety or whatever comes with the pressure of never having won it
