Sun 24 Apr: SL: Wigan Warriors v Salford Red Devils KO 13:00 (Channel 4)

[Futtocks]

Great break by Croft. Awful pass, though.

[Davo5]

Missed chance for Salford.

[dkw]

That was a hell of a kick on last tackle to turn Salford.

[Damien]

Enjoyable game so far. Both teams playing entertaining, expansive rugby and some good tries being scored.

[Futtocks]

Half Time, and it is Wigan 24:12 Salford. Some entertaining Rugby, some excellent tries and (thus far) only two insinuations of bent reffing.

Not a great game for C4, I expect Wigan by 20+

I’m sure C4 are pretty happy with the first half.

Browny must be out for Sunday Lunch.

[JohnM]

Salford blew at least two hard-earned chances otherwise the score might be even.

[StandOffHalf]

Some worrying signs for Salford there before HT. Would be a shame for TV if they fell off now.

Looked to really tire defensively in the last 10 minutes, which is usual for teams the week after Easter double headers.

[DavidM]

Some good attacking rugby and some less than good defence made for an entertaining half

only two insinuations of bent reffing.

I prefer to think that some posters have found their true vocation.

 

[dkw]

Crofts having a great ge for Salford.

[Damien]

Good play from Brierley to leave that for Gerrard.

[welshmagpie]

Really good game this. I hope there’s lots of new fans watching and enjoying their first experiences of rugby league. 

[dkw]

Kyle Amor is excellent on co-comms, no daft hyperbole or clichés, just describing the plays and why players are doing things.

[Damien]

Game on. 24 all.

[Davo5]

Salford on top here,Wigan are paying the price for having no impact down the middle both in attack & defence.

He’s very good apart from that last line ball call that went miles forward.

[Old Frightful]

Sorry folks, back watching now...

Line ball if the line was at 45 degrees ha ha...

Farrel definitely played at that.

Indeed he did, why raise his foot if he was just tackling him?

[DavidM]

C4 have been fortunate with their choice of games .

I beg your pardon your honour but may I put forward Hull FC v St Helens as evidence for the contrary.

Another six again helps Wigan's cause.

Yup. Been an enjoyable close game of summer rugby. Although Salford look a bit drained and I think Wigan will be two scores clear by the end.
