Josh Thewlis, who scored two tries for Warrington, told BBC Radio 5 Live:
“It was tough and you can see that by the scoreline. It took us until late in that second half to get up on them.
“It wasn’t just me changing position – James Bentley went from the back row to the centre and that’s something that will probably be missed, but he did a great job for us.
“It was disappointing last week [losing to Catalans], we reviewed it in France and we left the game in France. This week was a new challenge for us, Wigan are a great side and we knew it was going to be a big game under the lights.
“Something we’re working on this year is protecting our home and making that 100% record.”
Wigan head coach Matt Peet told BBC Radio Manchester:
“It was a tough game. [It was] two teams with players out of position and young players in, and ultimately I thought Warrington handled it better than we did.
“I’m proud of the lads’ effort and commitment, but there will be times that we’ll look back on and wish we could have executed better.”
On the number of injuries in the squad: “We’ll never use it as an excuse. Liam’s hamstring doesn’t look great and he’ll get a scan.
“We’ve got to cope the best we can and hopefully Liam’s not too bad.”
