FT: St Helens 6-42 Wigan<\/p>\n
Wigan Warriors boss Denis Betts speaking to BBC Sport:<\/b><\/p>\n
“I know the score line looks really strong but it’s a really tough game. Both sides were really competitive, you saw some really talented athletes out there today and I just thought our form is really good.<\/p>\n
“When they get ahead, they are hard to stop at the moment.<\/p>\n
“Grace wins the players of the match. I’m not really sure about giving back the player of the game but I thought Mary Coleman for 70 minutes was the player on the field by a long way.<\/p>\n
“She’s got so much energy. She’s tough to tackle but she’s also quick.<\/p>\n
“They were nervous coming into this game. Emotions were running wild but we managed to calm it, we’ve experienced it now, we’ve won a massive game. They can use the skill of the game to push that on again.<\/p>\n
“We are not setting any goal or targets but that’s what’s in front of them, to keep getting better.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"‘Emotions were running high but we managed to calm them’published at 13:52 British Summer Time 13:52 BST FT:…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":165185,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4102],"tags":[4151,79,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-165184","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-rugby","8":"tag-rugby","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114642581385596197","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/165184","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=165184"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/165184\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/165185"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=165184"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=165184"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=165184"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
