St. Helens - the-entertainers.tv • Wigan game
I actually thought Lomax offered a threat in the halves through his ball handling ability when running at the line. Barba who is about 3 yards slower than he was in the NRL still looked threatening in attack. Smith looked about 2 yards off the pace, and it showed when Wigan repeatedly attacked down that channel. They knew he was slow and exploited it with quick shifts. When he had the ball in hand they just let him run as they knew he could not go through a gap.
I personally was shocked that Fage was not on the bench, as expected him to rotate with someone else.
Looking forward the coach can now use the rest of the season to break through some of the youngsters.
Richardson needs to be given the last 3 games to help give him more experience, with a view to him partnering Lomax next season.
Fage i would rotate with Roby at hooker.
Smith needs to be used more as a senior mentor, like Wello in his last couple of years filling in when required.
