Gutting. He's looked really solid. A confidence you wouldn't expect from a lad who's spent the best part of 3 years out injured.

Brilliant writing from Rob, as usual, discussing an issue a lot of Loiners would be too proud to admit. With Wigan heading to Vegas this weekend, will Peet give into the wills of Sin City? Or will he eloquently shine in the world spotlight?
