Nope the stat was defo in our favour! 9 v 6 at half time. No rant from Jiffy tgough about how hed love to play in this weather!

[Futtocks]

Little respect for possession by either set of players means that the game swings wildly from side to side.

[Dave T]

Probably should be all square at thos stage but I think Wigan are more likely to run away with this. Decent attacking play from them whereas we may only score from kicks.

Saying that, Tanya Arnold's first question to Tony Smith earlier was about cutting out errors. Maybe it's catching?

Yeah they focused on Wire being the top of the error table before the game, hence the script written and the commentators running with it irrespective of what is happening in front of them. Same issues with Sky.

[Aldo1980]

Wire got what they deserved for that final try with feeble defence.

But, watching it again, I still don't see how the TJ can't see that it was a forward pass.

Are they afraid to get involved and make their own calls?

[DavidM]

Yep both sets of players have got the message about completions 

[Futtocks]

It's a drop-a-thon!

[DavidM]

I've always that it's a bit superfluous for coaches to say ' stop dropping it ' !! 

[Aldo1980]

I think 2 points from the penalty is actually a bit of a get-out...

[Desert Skipper]

Whilst Warrington have looked like they are putting in the effort, they really don't look like they're in with a chance of winning at this stage.   But who knows, stranger things have happened and we do seem to have some longevity over the course of the 80 with Clarke's training regime.

[Desert Skipper]

Wigan look full of pace all over the park if they can keep hold of the ball.

[Aldo1980]

Fair play to Wigan - 3 high shots in the one tackle!

[snapski]

Lockers reffing again

[DavidM]

That was a blatant knock on . Called by Thaler then changed by a touchie who was blindsided ??

Yep. Loose carry for me.

[DavidM]

Ben sometimes has a totally false air of control !

[Dave T]

Game on!

[Desert Skipper]

Nice passion after the score by Savelio, hope he can motivate some of the others.

[Dave T]

And that is why I have little time for Ratchford.

[snapski]

Marshall been like a rabbit in the headlights.

[Monkeydo]

Lol Marshall you dipstick

[DavidM]

They are never ever penalties !!
