Greenwood sin-binned.

Harsh but fortunately they keep either trying to barge through or drop the ball.

coverage is terrible one camera on the stand and one in the crowd i think, no graphics and no timer it's pretty pathetic.

What do you expect for 20000 euros that the catalans have paid the production company to film the game.

And they've still managed to get over to the line. 0-22 kick to come 

[Futtocks]

Joe Burgess in again, after a great weaving run from French. VR says try.

[barnyia]

Catalans only started back training on Wednesday, but the wigan defence is impressive

Sky should send a team to cover it, surely that should be part of the deal 

[DavidM]

It is pretty average coverage for a SL game tbh

The deal is that Sky cover two matches per round themselves (under regular circumstances), then broadcast whatever footage they are sent from the French production team.

Average? It’s bloody awful, worst game I’ve seen for ages

At this time if they did they wouldn't be able to work for two weeks when they came back.

 

[DavidM]

This is why I never go in for the Catalans to definitely do something predictions . You just never know with them . Caviar or cabbage 

[Man of Kent]

Something vaguely depressing about watching the only club allowed to have supporters put up such a pathetic home display, with Bill Arthur describing the proceedings.

[Futtocks]

Forward pass, when Isa could have scored that himself.

[marklaspalmas]

Reports of Catalans' impending league and cup double have been greatly exaggerated.

At times he actually knows what’s going on

Yeah fair comment, for a few moments I forgot all the virus stuff 

[Padge]

Under the current circumstances we have manage to get a game on in France, televised  and with a live audience and we have people bloody moaning. Welcome to Rugby League.

Smile you miserable b@$t@rd$.

Hard to call the game off the telly tbf. He's awful though.

[Futtocks]

Catalans are doing fine at making metres up the field, but that's where it all comes to a grinding halt. Wigan's defence is part of that, true, but there is also a lack of coherence, especially with following up their short kicks.

Any luck with the resulting drop out?

Think of the spectators. They only have one view!

With your number of posts you should know by now that I don't give a toss about Wigan's results. I have had my time under clouds and in the sun, I could no longer car less.

At least, unlike some keyboard worriers (sic), they have stereoscopic vision.

The deal is sky give the rights for free, and someone films the games over here for sky to show
