20 Mar: Leeds Rhinos v Wigan Warriors KO 8pm (TV)

[Wigansnapper89]

Cuthbertson has been brilliant tonight, caused havoc everywhere. Hard being a Wigan fan at the minute.

I really do think teams have worked us out, get your centres and wingers to push up quick. We cant do our structured plays to get around the edge. Then we struggle with no plan B

[chuffer]

No doubt wigan fans will have something to say about the penalty count but tbh they've given away a fair few stupid penalties tonight...not helped themselves at all

[Wolford6]

Wigan's lack of props has come to haunt them.

[Guest]

Ive seen it all now; Wigan penalised for walking off the mark, something all teams do every single game.

Bad reffing. One of many desicions, you start to get used to it, sub standard.

[Griff9of13]

Glad he penalised that, and glad it cost his team. More of that from the refs please.

I actually agree with you if it was each and every time. Problem is it isn't.

One or two steps maybe, and that's bad enough - I agree with Dave t on this...but manfredi looked like he fancied a stroll in the pennines

[Havenwarrior]

Wigan are missing the Experience of a Top Class half back. With Smith and Williams they will win nothing.

I think Saints will win the Grand Final, if they can keep their Half Backs fit.

HW

not many are that bad, but yes there is a lack of consistency, hence my request of more please!

Bloody hell, seriously? And this was the night I chose to be out. Missed it. Probably not again in my lifetime.

Lol, well we have had the solar eclipse today ...

[Wolford6]

Wigan's halfbacks; Glenn Miller and Amelia Earhart.

Another match spoiled, think I might just stick to the NRL, not everyone's cup of tea but at least the refs are better.

Not when Tim Roby gets there.

Haha.

You haven't read all the whingeing about referees from NRL fans, then?

[chuffer]

Has cuthbertson played RU in a previous life? Some nice cauliflower going on there

[Viking Warrior]

brilliant performance by the rhinos, why oh why has liam farrell become such a yard dog

[Exiled Wiganer]

I thought Leeds with Sindield would have put 50 on us.

Worrying times. You need to go forward before you can move it wide.

Having watched 4 sides over the last 2 nights we are some distance the worst of them.

We do have better role models and are peptide free.

Headingley on a night like tonight must be a great place to watch the game. We may be rather lacing in some departments but we follow our boys in numbers.

He needs dropping along with J. Tomkins and Gelling. Unfortunately I think Farrell and J. Tomkins are 2 of Wanes favourites and can do no wrong no matter how bad they are. Could do with Thornley and O'Loughlin back quick. Also need to play Larne Patrick in the 2nd row as he isn't a prop.

i watched farrell at widnes when he was on dual reg and he was a superb player, but sadly his discipline has deserted him in recent years,

As Eddy noted it was five steps. That's taking the **** even for Wigan

[Viking Warrior]

got to say that ash handley and brad singleton are definitely stars of the future

Last season his discipline started to go with holding down etc. nothing to bad. This year however, him and Tomkins have been ridiculous, it's as if they think nothing is going to happen no matter how long they hold down.

Wigan could have won that match with smarter play and less penalties but I don't think some of the players are ever going to learn.

He not only went forward, he also went sideways too.

Brilliant performance?  Were we watching the same match?  It was error strewn.  The Rhinos have lots of pace but they have looked way better than that as recently as last season.  Wigan are just a disorganised rabble, which is quite fun to watch I have to confess, although why Farrell was sinbinned I have no idea.  I think the referee got that one totally wrong.  Not that Farrell on the pitch would have made much difference but still, these things matter this season.
