Thu 3 Sept: SL: Hull Kingston Rovers v Wigan Warriors KO 6pm (Sky Sports)

[Just Browny]

With the six-again rule, we could conceivably see an ambitious young ref give Wigan a full 40-minute set of six this year.

Can anyone explain what that 10 mins is for? Seen it a couple of times and still can't figure out what happened.

Professional foul. SKD tackled a play when he knew he was offside and in a potential try scoring position.

Offside and a try scoring opportunity.

[wilsontown]

Thanks folks, watching in a pub with no sound and very much learning...

I thought this commentator said Tony Smiths first game as coach was in 1918

[wilsontown]

Not grounded.

He would have been about 100 when he played for us then.... 

[meast]

Great defensive effort by rovers in the last minute or so!

Fair play to them, they've really taken the game to Wigan.

That explains it then 

[andyscoot]

Credit to KR, fully deserved.

[Barca Mum]

Did Phil just call Ben Proe Eddie?

[Padge]

First ten minutes killed Wigan it was feeling easy, then KR hit back and never gave Wigan oxygen.

[DavidM]

That was a bit of a touch up , far superior

[Man of Kent]

34-18 Hull KR FT. Good coupon-buster to start the weekend.

Yup 

Force of habit or wishful thinking? 

[wilsontown]

Have to admit I wasn't expecting that at all. Played KR.

[Davo5]

Well done KR fully deserved win.

[Futtocks]

HKR delivered what they've teased us with so far in 2020. Soaked up huge pressure at first, then cut loose and never let Wigan get their balance back.

[wilsontown]

What is that flashing red light on the post-match interviews?

Electronic advertising hoardings. 

[Futtocks]

I wonder if Neil Hudgell is thinking of investing in a winning sports club?

Stadia usually have something to indicate all is well that stewards can monitor, a flashing light is common if it changes colour or speed then it is an indication to be alert, but doesn't spook fans.

You learn something new everyday, Adrian Lam has learned some of his players aren't as good as everybody says they are, hope Shaun Wane has taken it on board too.

Just like a PA announcement for "Mr Sands" is code for a fire. Originally used in theatres, but often used in places like railway stations these days.
