20 Sept: SL Qualifying Final: Wigan Warriors v Salford Red Devils KO 7.45pm (TV)

[Harry Stottle]

Ten times better than the game last night, it makes that game look as though it was played in slow motion, if Salford believe they will win this, they will start being more expansive with the ball Rowleyesque offensive play to the fore.

Interesting difference between the two teams in Salford just being happy to work Wigan's pack over whereas Wigan looking to give the ball a lot more air. Thought Wigan's disallowed try was wrong. I think the missed ball strips by both teams show what we lack by not having a pocket referee. Exciting game, tense too!

What the fish do the touchies do? Have they got blindfolds on?

Wouldn’t wipe my ass with last night’s game.

I agree on the pace / quality but I thought last night's second half was entertaining

Fair half time score. Wigan lucky to get a break from the ref to give them field position for their try.  Salford had to work a bit harder for theirs. 

Don’t tell that to Padge. He will tell you to grow up.

[Ullman]

What an absolutely cracking game this is. On a different level to last night's.

I wouldn't moan about the officials too much. The ball steal calls have gone Wigan's way but Salford are getting away with murder at marker.

I make it one all.

Salfords fans have been terrific. I hope they get to the grand final, it could potentially change the whole club. 

[Man of Kent]

Absorbing, isn’t it?

[Man of Kent]

Sio over or is he? Need to check touch and grounding

In touch. No try.

No.

[Futtocks]

Good effort from both Sio and Gildart.

[Man of Kent]

Dearie me. 

[Man of Kent]

A huge mistake not befitting of this game. 

[Bedfordshire Bronco]

Schoolboy error

[Griff9of13]

Panic from Salford. Try for Wigan!

[Man of Kent]

Try Wigan.

 

[Man of Kent]

Leuluai and Hardaker goal.

12-6 Wigan after 54

[Just Browny]

Poor error by Inu, but little attention paid to Isa being 7m offside.

[Man of Kent]

Game over. Williams 

[Griff9of13]

Superb try from nowhere for Wigan.

[johnh1]

So there are some Wigan fans there. Where have they been?
