Keighran learnt to stand his ground.

Hopefully that's not as bad as it looks. Awful to have to leave the field so early in your first ever Grand Final. Frustratingly, I can't understand why Matt Peet picks Liam Byrne on the bench over Walters. Walters can play prop and back row and provides cover for injuries. Now we've got our best prop at back row and it could be a game changer.

Doesn't look good, complete accident though. Hope he passes his HIA.

I think being out cold is an automatic fail I doubt he’ll even get to do the test.

That made me laugh, hearing the ref like a disappointed parent "up we get, stop milking"

Hull KR lucky there. Player looked to attack the head on the floor, although the replays didn't run that far

Don't think they are lucky - The VR would have seen the full replay, even if we didn't.

But yes, that was what I thought may have happened when I saw it live.

Was he out cold? He closed his eyes, but I wasn't sure if he actually was out or more groggy and protecting himself after coming down onto the floor.

He did look out for a few seconds unfortunately. 

[Coggo]

This is great stuff. Utterly engrossing 

[Archie Gordon]

All we need now is a try.

[Hopie]

I see we are letting the messy play of the balls go to let the game flow...

[Archie Gordon]

There you are!

Can only say I have noticed a couple that weren't the usual standard for this year.

I’ve no idea but he looked it I’m sure the doctor will be checking the footage. 

[The Hallucinating Goose]

C'mon Bevan!! What a run that was!!!

[Futtocks]

Bevan French just did a Bevan French thing.

If you blinked, you may have to wait for the replays.

[EagleEyePie]

He's done Mikey Lewis like a kipper there

[Coggo]

That’s the difference, really. KR are an excellent side but Wigan have class that reaches the parts others can’t.

No sign of KF being caught in the first Grand Final headlights, bodes well for a good game.

Second one bodes even better for you

Which one the one Liam Farrell kicked in the KR PTB.

Damn, French made Lewis look like an academy player with that.

To be fair he isn’t Lewis man there that’s Parcels fault all day long. 

[Irish Saint]

Bevan French go back to Parramatta they need you.

I saw a player land on the face ofNsemba on floor too. Very surprised they didn’t show on replay as I thought that’s what knocked him for six. Expected a red card to come for it.
