Here is a quote from a coach 

"I can’t believe the best player in the world is a person I’ve never seen play,” Fittler told NSWRL.com.

"I watched the highlights of the England game yesterday and just saw him score a couple of tries.

"That’s all I’ve ever seen of him and he’s the best player in the world? I find it ridiculous."

Wonder what Salford are thinking . Very confident ?

Confident of finishing runners up maybe

They will be watching this anyway. Wigan look shattered.

If Coote's grubbers weren't so awful Saints would be 50 up.

That said more about Fittler than anything , and being an origin coach he has no need to have his finger on the pulse , but those in the marketplace for  players do . The recent success of our exports has amplified that

Adol is not one of the planet's great worldly-wise intellectual renaissance men. I've read his autobiography, and even he thinks he's an idiot.

Sam Powell is going to be sore in the morning.

Wow... Hardaker. Had his eyes on Walmsley then... it’s not often you see this from Wigan.

[Just Browny]

Has any Wigan forward run the ball up yet?

It’s just like our first 15 matches.

Delightful stuff. This is why we love rugby league 

[GeordieSaint]

34-6 after Percival scores.

I don’t think saints have had to do anything extraordinary to win this match. Looks like they have just done all the basics really well, tackled as a team and minimised the mistakes. Wigan on the other hand haven’t done anything. They look like they haven’t trained all week.

Coote seems to be playing much closer to the ruck in attack than most of this season, its certainly worked tonight. 

[Futtocks]

I hate it when my team loses, and even more so when we lose to Saints.

But this has been phenomenal Rugby and I can appreciate it.

[GeordieSaint]

Clubb...

[Red Willow]

Clubb again, must be facing a ban this time.

[snapski]

Got to be cited for intent alone.

Yeah, right. 

[DavidM]

I thought penalty was sufficient there and ref handled that well

[Man of Kent]

That’s all Wigan have got tonight. Late hits

[Just Browny]

Would be watching my head if I was a Saints player now. Free for all.
