This 100%. I can't understand why when a player is forced to take a voluntary tackle any defender would touch him. The attacker can't get up and run because its obstruction and this is why it either is obstruction or not, we can't have a "meh its obstruction but not bad obstruction so we will let this one fly" rule.

53k and looks like the new board took over and simply decided to stop paying the rent. What a shambles. At least they got to wear their brand new suits at Wembley while all the time the club was going down the pan. Might explain the state of our squad for this season and why players keep asking to leave.

That obstruction rule certainly one of my pet hates. Clearly no obstruction but he is required to break another rule and take a voluntary tackle.

Should have been looked at for a penalty try. Even worse with Lewis then missing the kick.

You will be hoping what I heard tonight is not true then. Honestly though he would be good with an actually centre to play with.

Seems fair and sensible. Fev might owe Fax one though as we don't tend to give out injury news so theres a chance we only find out he broke his jaw after about 8 weeks out.

Huddersfield will just be Halifax again.

It seems Greg Eden is about to become available. Looked crocked on Sunday though.

Not a bad team:- https://www.loverugbyleague.com/post/an-ultimate-13-of-rugby-league-players-born-in-halifax-including-wigan-warriors-duo

Yeah my personal take was that it was just an unfortunate incident, Gale trying to get a shot on a player juggling the ball to force the error and Inman dropping at the same time. It looks bad because of where the contact is so I wouldnt be surprised if its a couple game ban but given the precedent set the other week if it turns out Inman has broke his jaw it could be a lengthy ban because of the injury. Ive watched the incident a few times and can't believe it myself. A guy who I presume is the doctor(No markings on his red top) checks him out but seems to be the main concern is his jaw. Call me a cynic but we have no other hooker in the team and Eden was also needing to be replaced as he was quite clearly hobbled at this time, that should not play a part but it would not surprise me that teams game the system.

Fax bringing in Corey Johnson from Leeds on loan who plays hooker. Rumor seems to be that Inman suffered a broken jaw in the Gale incident. No idea how true that is but its a strange move bringing a hooker in when Adam O Brien was supposedly only a few weeks off so does point to an injury for Inman.

Yeah too much comparison rather than enjoying it for what it is. I tried to say that in my last post but I guess it kicked off and because of what SC said and that got deleted as well.

As you know Im a huge fan of womens rugby but I would tend to agree in this instance. The game is in the early stages of its development but is growing in popularity at a rapid rate but £15 to watch a team that quite frankly has been a total disappointment this season does seem steep and it almost feels like they are trying to cash in on Wigan maybe bringing a few fans who would want to watch both games. For a family of 4 without a season ticket it is going to cost them nearly £100 to watch 2 games of rugby. I am not sure what planet Huddersfield are on thinking that is feasable especially in what they are calling their inclusive round.

Is that right if you are a Wigan fan wanting to watch both games you would have to pay £15 to watch the first game then another £22 to watch the second game?

Going back to what I said previous, this is why a rebuild will take a few years. Everyone knows the state they are in so they will end up having to pay over the odds for whoever is their next coach along with players like they have done for Asiata. Spending so much of their cap on an aging prop is madness but they really are in a sticky situation.
