Wow 

[Southerner]

Wigan look awful. Bang average. 
Fifita is majorly underrated.

How are you supposed to put the kicker under pressure if that is considered "late"? 

Good try from Fifita though.

Deserved and stupid from Wigan. Two players as well!

Oof, that's a strong try.

Fifi's good when he's in the mood, and he's been very active so far.

That looked exactly what your meant to do . Pressure the kicker and make a proper tackle

They could’ve easily pulled outta the tackle there. I’m pleased to see the playmakers get some protection for once.

I don’t know if Batemans injured or just not interested but the Leigh game and so far in this it’s not the Bateman I was expecting to see.

I think it was against the second man in.

Sure was, Bateman's a strong bloke but he couldn't get any purchase on Fifita.

[snapski]

Please don't show the fans again after a try. Embarrassing that.

His stats were pretty impressive against Leigh.

Was Hastings actually late? Do we consider anything after the millisecond the ball is kicked late?

I felt that Bateman was torn between stopping the offload and getting Fifita to the ground, and ended up doing neither.

Surely there are some decent youth players they can call on.

Obviously not,got to scratch your head at some of the decisions made by Radlinski &co over the summer.

[snapski]

Knock on that. He’s lost it.

[andyscoot]

Reckon he's held up there. Great tackle if he has.

[Barry Badrinath]

Thats a knock on

Knock on

[bobbruce]

That’s a joke

[DavidM]

Deary me

[Barry Badrinath]

Surely you can over turn it for an obvious loss of the ball?

[Futtocks]

He may have got his other hand to the ball (and that's very debatable), but I don't think he grounded it even then.

[snapski]

Absolute nonsense. That’s disgraceful
