Salford should have taken the easy 2 points, when the yellow card was given. 14-10 up .. and they’d get the ball back. Match management.  

Wigan would've gone for the short kick off, no guarantee they would've got the ball back.

Really enjoyed that second half. Like the way Salford go on the front foot as well and the flat ball to second runner to get the extra yards. Really effective and troubled Wigan who were lucky at the end with the brain explosion from Salford.

Short drop out was risky, but it's the wing man who ed up, should've caught it. 

Better communication and Salford would have had a couple more players out there for the pat-back instead of an attempted catch.

So brave.

So valiant.

So plucky.

So pay your ###### rent and stop buying a squad you can't afford.

And that's why Sneyd will never be an international or top half back, brilliant when running the show but awful game management that has just cost his team a famous victory.

How can you be prevented from scoring a try and be awarded a try? Just because you haven't grounded the ball, a try is a try, penalty try or not.

But you can't be awarded a penalty try if you are not prevented from scoring a try.

This feels like a comedy sketch.

One thing I can’t criticise Sneyd for is his game management. OK tonight was an error that ultimately cost Salford the game but those kind of misjudgements from him are few and far between IMO.

The card is for preventing a try scoring opportunity. If you give the try, you've not prevented a try scoring opportunity.

If the awarded try is a Penalty Try then there was no try.(apologies if I've misunderstood you).

Anyway, if a team eventually gets away with illegally stopping a try- aren't we in Rah Rah territory? I suspect in real world situations there is no right answer.

Monty Python would have been good in Penalty Try or Not!

Any team wearing their 4th kit of the season in their 5th(?) game deserves to get beaten. Let's hope so.

I am not sure if you picked up on this but that top is for a very good cause.

But even if they get it they are trapped within their 10 after already being pushed back over the tryline twice for drop outs. Its hardly a great play anyway.

Preventing a try-scoring opportunity is one sin-binnable offence, as is professional fouling.

I still think Wardle was lucky not to be binned for electing to pull back Sneyd, who was chasing his kick towards the in-goal.

Full credit to Salford, they were the better side for most of the night. They’re fighting for every inch under Rowley and to go that close to a win, with so many forwards out is unbelievable really. I was behind the posts when Sneyd was going for the drop out and it felt like he was going to try and be a bit too clever. He’d played a blinder up until that point as well.

 

As for Wigan, we’re well off the mark in the main but that’s understandable. I think it’ll take a good few weeks to get their heads straight and back on the job of trying to win more silverware. I’ll forgive the players that and you can’t grumble winning games and not playing well.

Brilliant game - very well refereed imo. Salford are a joy to watch and Wigan's support create an amazing atmosphere. Feel for Sneyd but get the rationale. Loved it.

A shame he forgot he had cards after Sneyds swinging arm to Magos head.

Agree. Wonder if the MRP will pick up on that?

As for the game I really enjoyed it.
