| Title says it all really.
Great effort from the lads, left feeling disappointed but a fair result overall.
Thought they were better than us.
We had no answer to their attacks down our right flank and they looked likely to score at will, but credit to us, we defended well too.
Any other team tonight and we win.
The future is bright at Wigan.

| Well said PEAPOI.
They were definitely the better side, and the score probably flattered us to be honest. But a good effort nonetheless.
Cracking to watch us playing against a great side. The NRL is the standard that Bristish RL needs to continue to aspire to.

| Agree 100%. FR more clinical in attack and ruthless in defence. We showed glimpses of what we can do but overall the best team definitely won.

| Fair result. All the points we identified pre-match: eg poor kicking game, discipline, and yet we still came close. Great effort from the lads, and a performance that would have beaten any team in SL.

| Don't know if it was my expectations being too high, but I was a bit concerned just before ht at how knackered we looked.

Yep, great effort from the boys, and with only 2 recognised props too.
St.George were another level above any team I've seen Wigan face though.

| Very fair comments as a saints fan totally enjoyed the game. bBoth sides would have beaten saints tonight. Well played Wiagn and how well did the Dragons defend.

| They played well but the Aussies are something else to be honest.
One thing that needs to be said though is that Carmont did not deserve to be on the losing team tonight. I hope he doesn't retire this year. When hes fit hes one of the best players we have and spends alot of time being vastly underrated. Massive plaudits go out to him tonight.

| Very fair result.
Totally agree re Carmont. Great player and very very underrated. Carmont vs Roberts? Hmm let me think about that for half a second.....

| Disappointed but not downhearted.
Great credit to them. They've come to the other side of the world, not had a warm up game, lost the presence of their coach and played in a stadium with a partisan crowd.
I felt their defence was more intense than anything we're used to in SL. Sowerby absolutey kicked us to deeath. In the second half especially we were starting our attacks form our 10 metre line. We were unable to generate any sustained pressure on their line. Add in that some poor execution when we did build some pressure, left us struggling to score points in the second half. It didn't help either only having two frontline props and then to lose Gleeson really left us without experience and pure muscle. In attack Morris was the big difference. He was strong and quick and looked dangerous everytime he had the ball.
I was extremely pleased with our efforts and defence in the middle of the park. We were extremely aggressive at times. We'll learn from this though. Don't forget many of us felt winning the GF last year was a year too early, so to have given the Dragons the game we did is very encouraging.
The futures bright. The futures Wigan

I agree George was Wigans MOM for me by a long way. That's the best I have seen him play. He ran like a 2 year old. It's a great shame he is now at 'that' age.
I think we missed our props tonight and Sam was played out of position IMHO. Wasted at full back tonight. Our attacking options were minimal as a result.
Sams strength is his broken field play but you can't run the full length of the field in that sort of competition.
