Huddersfield Giants • Guess the excuse
Having heard his post match interview the excuse is now clear, he is blaming the young kid (Halsall) for the loss! Nice way to boost a young kids confidence, i actually think he is the most potent of the backline we have at the moment, and is the only back actually scoring tries regularly, let's blame him! No doubt he will be replaced by wigans unwanted 4th choice winger Jake Bibby, who is another plodder with no pace or ability to beat a man!
At the next conference try this 'The loss is down to me assembling a side with no attacking threat or pace whatsoever, the evidence is very clear from the fact that our forwards score more tries than our backs and we have the poorest conversion of territory into points in the league (bar Wakefield)' I really wish he did have his 'settled spine' out there, because it really wont make very much difference at all, you can pick any combination of Peats, Russell, Lolohea, Pryce, Connor and Fages you like and you wont come up with a balanced one that causes a passing running and kicking threat. Likewise any combination of McGillvary, Cudjoe, Golding, Halsall , Bibby wont give you two wingers that have pace and the ability to beat a man. I just checked and none of our halves (or quota players) are even out of contract at the end of the year, so we are stuck with this drudgery even if someone else takes over. Well done Watson, you have built a boring side noone fears and noone enjoys watching.
He is still living out and living on that cup final loss, thinking 'if we had just been able to defend a bit longer we could have won!!!' Wigan played the worst i have more or less ever seen a cup final side play in that first half and we still weren't able to put them away with his boring defensive mind set. I heard him defending the choice of taking 2 points in the Hull game saying it would ;quieten the crowd', has he ever watched a game as a spectator,? When a side takes 2 and it doesnt put them more than one score ahead you breath a sigh of relief that you didn't concede a try. Far from quieting them it buoyed them up and they went and scored at the other end!!
