Its nice to watch a game as neutral. Fax were the better team tonight and they deserved it.
Sheffield have played a game too many this season in my opinion

I dont normally do this but here goes,i think Sheffield are shot and have got nothing left,so its between Fax,Fev and centurions.

Halifax have found there form again,Fev have a large squad and have used a few loan players to help them thru, and the centurions have used several wigan players to help them keep there squad fresh.
Exciting few weeks ahead for all i think.

No offence meant to the other 4 clubs but im not sure you cant trouble the top 4

Excellent win but we have still likely to play Sheffield again in 2 weeks. Job is only half done. Still well done all the players and coaches.

Bless....why do you care mate ? (i.e. posting on rlfans.com)
So it was ok for us (Leigh Centurions) to have all the Warrington 'loanees' during the past 2 seasons, but have 1 regular 'pie' in Tom Spencer, and a few others 'early doors'. At the moment (not that you would know) since we beat Fax 11-4, Tom has been our only Wigan player in the squad. What's your REAL excuse for not going watching Leigh ???
Skint/Lost yer job ?
Wife has left you ?
Goldfish has died ?
You once got bummed by a Pie Eater ????

That was a good effort from the lads they really dug in, it was an arm wrestle first half and I was worried we had not taken advantage of having the best of things and not getting over the whitewash we did not look like scoring tbh.
But second half we stuck at it forced them into making errors with a few of our own but picked them off and dsepite giving them a soft try (Ryan was a bit unlucky though) we went down the other end and scored a great try from a terrific break by Ben Heaton then topped it off with a good solo try by Scott Murrell.
Sorry I was not there watched it in the Fleece.

Great feeling for me to actually believe all week that we can go into a game, BIG game & i expected us to win it. Those who chat RL with me or part of my "text chat" will know what i'm talking about. I said a short & tight passing game with a long, low kicking game in those conditions would be our best chance. I still heard Fax fans shouting/cheering for us to attempt ridiculous passes when there was no need. We controlled large portions of that game tonight either territorrilly, possession-wise or on the scoreboard.
I did wish we'd taken the "2" early on, but we never looked threatened at all. We forced loads of errors, stayed disciplined with & without the ball & fully deserved to win. Without a video ref, we'd probably have won by a larger margin too.
Great confidence & form booster.

Thought the video ref was completely out of his depth and sounded inept, errr and ohhh as first comments on rferrals didn't come across well -should have had bloemy on instead, always soundedd good commentating

I have to say as a supporter who has heaped plenty of criticism on the club over recent weeks that I am eating a large chunk of humble pie today...!! Great feeling it is too!! Superb controller performance and fingers crossed we can keep the momentum into the next round all the way to the GF!! I'll still say it as I see it and thrown my Wobblies now and then but well done lads for such a great performance.... I know this is old news but I think just over 700 for a game of this stature shows the apathy across the game right now. The ridiculous new format in the play offs almost made this a pointless game. Glad Fax saw the opportunity and grasped it tho!!

Great result that was built on solid defence and controling the game for long periods.
Territorially and chance wise we had enough to win most games.

Credit to eagles who kept us out on mutiple sets close to their line and the game was anyones untill the last few minutes.

What has changed.

Well for one thing Line speed picked up against Workington and carried on tonight, wer'e not doing the 2 steps forward and little skip anymore.

It's lighting fast as a line and 3 or 4 tacklers getting really stuck in putting the man down, a little more split between upper body and legs will have it off to perfection.

The oppostion halfs instead of having time to make a cup of tea and pick their runners out have barely time to get a pass or the kick away and often can't and have to pass wide to the second kicker who's not as effective.

Our bench rotation that was so effective early on in the season is now back to full strength in depth and keeps the pressure on.

Chance to get a few bumps and bruises healed up some good training sessions and back to it in couple of weeks.

Well played boys but message is Keep your feet firmly on the ground we have won nowt yet.

Brilliant performance from the whole team. I said at the beginning of the week we would go there and win and to be fair we dominated the game. Our pack were mammoth and there were some big, big performances by individuals which stopped Sheffield playing. Line speed was as good as Ive seen it this season and we didnt let them breathe.

I just watched part of the game his morning and actually enjoyed listening to the video ref. I want the ref commentating on close decisions, to me as a viewer we like to know when its not an easy decision.

Probably a little bit of sadness as well as a few of our players, barring injury, have now probably played their last games for Fax.

Watched it in't Griffin due to work. A great atmosphere in there, pity about the ale! A big well done to the lads and coaching staff. Up the Fax!

Awesome, not a backward step all the game. Well done lads it was great to be there.

Thought it was a pretty boring game to be honest.

Sheffield looked clueless in attack and 'fax wern't much better.

Didn't see anything that we need to worry about from either team.

You are right. The only thing that can beat Fev is themselves and their ability to choke in the big games.
