Also before Hull scored - Kendall made up a knock-on against Smith when the Hull player just dropped it and then Wardle was picked up off the ground and put into touch. Basically gave them the game.

Yeah, in hindsight we should’ve just put Eckersley at full back and Keighran on the wing. Hull exploited that messy edge really well. I also don’t get why we didn’t just keep Keighran defending at centre and with the ball he’s at 6.

Credit to Hull, they stuck in the game and played some good smart rugby, especially targeting Adam.


I thought we should have brought Forber on earlier and Kruise to 6, Faz at centre as Hull just exploited that wing all the 2md half.


I think we'll learn from it and motivation for another GF finish

Field picks up the hamstring injury in the build up to the Nsemba try. He just can't shake them - that's probably his fourth or fifth since he joined Wigan. You can see why he usually restricts himself to 70/80% of his top speed - when he runs at full tilt as he did tonight he seems to be at risk of injury. 

I can’t understand why we preserved with a guy playing on one leg, we would have been better advised to play Mago on the wing. Some bad calls by the coaching staff but, like everyone else they will learn from it. Congratulations to Hull, they fully deserved their victory.

Yes, AK should never have been on the pitch, let alone at 6.


Didn't he also get a good clout setting up Wigan's first try? Dunno how much impact that had.
