Hmm tackle without the ball.

Is that why ISA has gone to the bin? I'm listening on the radio and they don't know.

[DavidM]

Good defence with 12 there

[andyscoot]

Penalty, yes. Don't agree that that's a sin bin.

[DavidM]

Wire have had some chances already

I think Manfredi is for 10 though, penalty try too

Can’t be both 

[bobbruce]

Manfredi more of a yellow than Isa suppose his saving grace was the penalty try was given.

Is Wigan's plan to just tackle everyone fielding a kick before they get the ball for the full game? Might not be a good strategy.

Might be Lams new plan A.

It's certainly an interesting one. Which is more beneficial to the attacking team - 10 mins of an extra man or 6 points they would have scored anyway?

 

EDIT: Quoted the wrong post, sorry! Doesn't quite make sense

I'm sure that makes sense in Widnes.

[Barca Mum]

Bet Salford fans are glad they have Inu and Williams rather than Hastings and Bibbey

[Cheshire Setter]

The radio comm suggesting that Warrington should be disappointed with only 6 points. Fair assessment?

That's a penalty try for me. Hard to believe he wouldn't have scored otherwise

Interesting to see a hilarity emoticon linked to this post.

I wonder if an explanation could be offered.

It might do, but I'm not from Widnes and nor would I venture in to ask anyone

Yes but they’ve just doubled it . Bibby dropping his lollies 

[Davo5]

Bibby having another mare under the high ball.

Yes. They should be further in front.

Hmmm. Maybe, possibly,  but we've shown some ineptness within the opposition 20 again.

[Barry Badrinath]

Aside from us just scoring 

[Old Frightful]

Everyone's favourite team captain scores.

Wigan defenders, hang your heads in shame.

[Rupert Prince]

Short...

The TV makes him look tall I guess.

[Futtocks]

Warrington have more penetration in attack, and Wigan have been scrambling to close them down several times. The Warrington try line (or even their 20) hasn't been threatened anywhere near as much.

Having said that, Wigan have just scored.

[Just Browny]

Very little idea why that ball came loose as Sky are showing a replay of a man limping ten minutes earlier.

The coverage has been particularly woeful this evening.
