Discuss Wigan Warriors v Leeds Rhinos here.

Wigan 44-12 Leeds

[Tippytoe]

I'm hoping not but can't see anything in Leeds last performance to suggest anything other than a heavy defeat this week and next.

[Davo5]

Wigan by 6 

[Patx71]

Leeds are poor this season.  Wigan by 20

 

[Thunder Road]

Wigan by 18

[Chronicler of Chiswick]

Wigan by 24.

[Chrispmartha]

I think as a squad we )Leeds) are going through a period like Warrington last year, lots of players off contract which may upset the squad.

Think Leeds will beat Wigan in one of the next two games, just not sure which one.

[Tommygilf]

No expectations at least means nothing too disappointing

[Human Punk]

Can't see anything other than a sound beating for Leeds.

Said the same about Hull last week.

That's pretty impressive stuff for a nigh on 70 year old good on him

Due to an injury to a Leeds player, the referees and captains have agreed to abandon this evening's Reserves fixture. We wish the player well.

#WWRL”

i know it’s the reserves but wish for a speedy recovery whatever has happened.

The player is Toby Warren. Best wishes that he's okay.

[Old Frightful]

Just checked the current SL table and Hull FC will go above Leeds tonight if Wigan win by 139.

 

[Old Frightful]

Why wasn't that a penalty against Harry Smith?, he looked at the chasing player following the kick through and obstructed him right in front of Liam Moore.

Oh, maybe I've just answered my own question.

[Damien]

Can Wilkin never shut up. Its just an incessant stream of gibberish.

I'm listening to Wire v Hull KR while watching Pies v Leeds.

It can be a bit confusing but it's infinitely preferable to listening to the Sky commentary.

[johnh1]

Wilkin & McDermott are just dreadful. Bill is ok if the other two would let him get a word in.

[Futtocks]

Wigan seem keen the throw the ball about, but it means their attack has less structure. Lots of time pressuring the Leeds tryline, but no points so far.

Pardon?

4-0

[Damien]

Nice try. Wigans attack still looks patchy to me though.

Finally a try, but still not much to show for such sustained pressure.

[Jughead]

I really hope IMG are watching this.
