Great play from Hiku

Wigan can't play any worse 2nd half surely

16 missed tackles in 35 minutes is half time hairdryer standard.

Wigan really love the Challenge Cup don't they?

They do, and if it stays like this HKR have no chance. 
 

Bearing a miracle, Wigan don’t like my coupon either

Wigan look like they are coming off a ‘team building session’, emphasis on ‘session’.

[Futtocks]

Ethan Havard's first time on the pitch since the Grand Final. Glad he's back in action.

Farrell has had a reyt stinker tonight

They were speculating at half time that he may have had an early knock to the head that wasn't spotted. He would normally run onto an inside pass from Marshall in his sleep.

Miski finally gets Wigan on the scoreboard. They've looked a bit more incisive overall so far in the second half.

People speculate that about me

Brilliant finish from Hall, Leeds have picked up a good un!

[Old Frightful]

Game over.

KR done a job on Wigan tonight.

They deserve the win without question.

Only after Hall told him to start running again.

Unable to watch or listen tonight. From the score, it reads like a comprehensive and deserved victory for Hull KR.

Rules question if a player runs round his own player and has to go to the floor to surrender like Marshal did then. What would happen if the defensive side refused to put a hand on him.

HKR were playing at top speed all game, and Wigan were struggling to contain them. Wigan made a fair few breaks in the second half, but the Robins were as quick to act in defence as they were in attack.

Impressive and entertaining from the home side. Wigan were put on the back foot and always struggled to recover.

Very well played Hull KR. Excellent performance. Enjoyable game.

Oops got that one wrong, well played Rovers brilliant performance.

Haven't heard Ryan Hall speak before. He comes across really well. Very interesting to listen to.

A very intelligent guy.

Congratulations to Hull KR, they were far and away the better team tonight. Wigan just didn't turn up and looked out of sorts all night. We need to put a lot of things right for next week.
