Betfred Super League Round 22
Wigan Warriors 44 - 2 Wakefield Trinity
For the first time this season I was angry , this was a complete inept display that belonged in the era before Matt Ellis and Daryl Powell arrived at the club 2 years ago .
I never really expected to win the game , victories at Wigan are pretty rare and with Bevan French back in their lineup it was always going to be even more difficult .
What angered me more than anything was our abject performance , Wigan more or less did practically anything they wanted and we failed to even make a contest of it .
It was an awful performance and embarrassingly weak both physically and mentally .
6th place is still very much in play to extend the season and yet we turned up at a place where you have to turn up and embarrassed ourselves , you could argue we didn't turn up at all .
The well it's the first season back in Super League and look how far we've come doesn't wash with me because we've set standards this season even in defeat and we fell way short of those standards yesterday .
3 wins from the last 4 games should get us a ticket to the play offs given we've Huddersfield on Saturday followed by the derby at Cas and we finish at Salford with KR at home the only really difficult fixture .
All to play for which makes yesterday's performance all the more bewildering.
