Wigan Warriors player ratings as two score 2/10 in Super League Grand Final defeat

Wigan’s two-year reign as Super League champions ended this evening when they were taken apart by Hull KR in the Grand Final at Old Trafford.

Wigan went into the final in red-hot form, but conceded two tries when down to 12 men in the first half and, after threatening a revival either side of the break, were second-best for most of the contest. It was an error-ridden display by Matt Peet’s side. Here’s how their players rated.

Wigan Warriors player ratings as they lose Super League Grand Final

Jai Field

Kept quiet in the first half but brilliantly set up Harry Smith for a try to give Wigan brief hope after the break 6

Abbas Miski

Try-saving tackle to shove Oliver Gildart into touch, but no real attacking chances 5

Adam Keighran

Landed a long-range penalty after the half-time hooter, but failed to convert Smith’s try 4

Jake Wardle

Made one half-break, but wasn’t really in the game 4

Liam Marshall

Lovely kick should have set up a try for Bevan French; two bad knock-ons near Wigan’s line, the first of which led to Hull KR’s second try 3

Bevan French

Awful error when he failed to ground Marshall’s kick, knocked-on at a play-the-ball and was well below his usual dominant form 3

Harry Smith

Scored early in the second half after a one-two with Field, but his pass gifted Hull KR their final touchdown 5

Liam Byrne

Didn’t get a lot of game time and made no real impact on the game 4

Brad O’Neill

His sin-binning, for a dangerous tackle on Tyrone May, played a huge part in Wigan losing the game as the Robins scored twice against 12 men 2

Luke Thompson

Toiled hard in a lost cause 6

Sam Walters

Some strong carries, but knocked-on in the set following Smith’s try which led to the Robins adding two points 5

Liam Farrell

Blew an early chance when he spilled French’s pass five metres out; missed a tackle on Mikey Lewis for the Robins’ try and squandered some pressure with a forward pass 2

Kaide Ellis

One knock-on, didn’t impose himself even in the tight opening exchanges 5

Subs

Ethan Havard

Made a bit of an impact when he first came on, but was unable to change the flow of the game 5

Junior Nsemba

One of Wigan’s better players, a few decent runs and some solid defence 6

Patrick Mago

Forced an error from Joe Burgess, was involved in Wigan’s try 5

Kruise Leeming

Short first spell and didn’t dominate out of dummy-half 4
