30 Sept: SL Play Off Semi Final 2: Wigan Warriors v Hull FC KO 8pm (TV)

[GeordieSaint]

No pace to the Hull attack; very pedestrian from Sneyd in his distribution.

[Mark S]

Looks like Hull left the team brain cell at Wembley

[Futtocks]

And Sarginson dons the John Wilkin Trademarked Noseband..

[Colly]

This is just awful stuff, basically Hull are hopeless and Wigan toothless

[snapski]

Anyone who think Sneyd is England class is a fool

[chuffer]

Jeez, not going well for FC so far

[Futtocks]

14:0 now.

[Davo5]

IT worked out well,but why was Smith going for a drop goal.

A few seconds from half time, why not twist the knife a little?

[Griff9of13]

Well I'm fairly happy at half time.

Very poor spectacle...

How is 9-0 compared to 8-0 twisting the knife !

[Futtocks]

If he didn't think a try was likely, the next best thing is a score of any kind. It can weigh on an opposing team's mind over the break.

(spinal tap) it's, like, 1 better (/spinal tap)

[Hvy wg]

Charnley's brain just exploded

[012chris]

ref helped wigan get on top with some ropey decisions...but they have played bloody well to stay there.

It's about pressure, gradual pressure. Physiologically it keeps chipping away. Exactly the the right thing to do at that point in such a tight game.

Yeah because they would need 2 tries & a conversion,instead of erm 2 tries and a conversion.

[chuffer]

Gay Mon?

Not if hull were to score unconverted tries ....christ, let it go

[Futtocks]

The dominant Wigan side of the Eighties and Nineties always aimed to score something when they entered the opposition 20. It adds up mentally, as well as on the scoreboard.

[GeordieSaint]

Good try Bowden...

[Futtocks]

Game. On.
