How are fc getting on tonight? 

[Archie Gordon]

Genius.

And Wigan showing they can only break KR down with individual plays.

They have no idea how to work as a team at all from this game has shown.

[DavidM]

Thats good

That was an incorrect call. The player was sliding and the tackle was not completed and as you say Burgess was perfectly fine to get involved until the player comes to a stop and is held. 
 

The ref clearly binned him for that offence. One which was never committed. 
 

Not even fortunate or a 50/50. Just plainly a poor decision. 
 

Just like the ball hitting Burgess’s foot being missed. 
 

The strip with 3 players on the KR forward and ball shooting 10 ft in the air given as a lost ball. 
 

That’s too many incorrect decisions in a game and it needs addressing. The officials have a hard job and do the best they can but these things aren’t good at all. 

Agree on all points, apart from the ball hitting Burgess' foot. He stood completely still and didn't play the ball, just letting it hit his foot.

[Barry Badrinath]

Wilkin ignoring the fact the rookie fullback was way out of position 

[Coggo]

Can’t kick in touch rugby, Jon

[StandOffHalf]

What a cracking game and occasion this is!

Magic kick and regather to score by French.

Here's a highly controversial view. Why not enjoy the game, the skill, the excitement, rather than trying to find fault with the refs decisions?

Have you only just discovered rugby league in the last 24 hours or something?

I appreciate why you’d like to draw a veil over it though…

[bratman]

Mago has caused havoc, and a moment of brilliance from French

[Barry Badrinath]

Red card

 

I don't want it to be, 

 

The ricochet played zero part in that

That's exactly what I thought

[17 stone giant]

Creative brilliance from French. Probably a bit fortunate to get such a favourable bounce of the ball, but if you buy a ticket...

[Coggo]

That’ll be costly, I’m afraid. 

[DavidM]

He has to go off there after staying down , surely

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

[Worzel]

Wigan get to play their 2nd half joker I see

It's bizarre that the majority of wigan fans seem to not like him.

[StandOffHalf]

Whitbread's shoulder does go into Dupree, so it's a yellow I suppose.

[Barry Badrinath]

Very un matty peet reaction

That is a tough one. Think I am OK with a sinbin for it. Think there was a bit of a ricochet, etc.

I do agree with Wilkin though - Dupree can't stay on the field after staying down that long for a head injury. Has to go to HIA.

[dkw]

Ok, sin bin the player. But surely the injured player has to go off for a HIA?

I can understand his frustration with the team's sloppiness.
