what an atmosphere at todays game its a good job us, wire and saints have sent people or the ground would be empty

The refereeing team are cheering for Wigan, however.

Warrington away next week it is.

Catalan look like they can't be bothered. Players just strolling back to their line is not good enough.

IMO, if you can't be bothered then you don't deserve it.

The writing was on the wall today. You could see from the effort on the pitch and the body language of the Catalan players that Wigan were going to win. Warrington here we come and I think that Catalan made Wigan look good today. Good to see the stands nice and full today at Wigan.

Yeah got to agree..Catalans have been very much second best today....looks like Wire next week unless they fancy taking on a tired Wigan after a short turnaround from today to Friday night! ?

Catalans just looked knackered after about ten minutes.

To be fair, having a perfectly decent try wiped off (for no other reason than incompetent officials) does take the wind out of the sails a bit too. 12-6 at H/T instead of 18-0 may have made a significant difference.

That said - if we think we need to up our game next week to have any chance at Wire, the same applies for Wigan at Saints.

I thought Ganson and Catalans were equally atrocious

Catalans were awful.

Their 'try' was moot. This is the business end, seperates the men from the boys. If that incident did knock them off course it says more about them really and validates their exit from the play-offs.

Now the Natural Top 4 are left.

Someone had clearly been in his ear about the whistleathon at Warrington the week before. The incident in the second half when he allowed a clear Wigan high tackle to go, seemingly on the basis that Catalans made about four yards with the ball after it, summed up his performance.

Sadly, with Silverwood stood down for the rest of the season there's every likelihood it'll be Ganson on Friday night, Bentham on Saturday in a direct shootout for the Grand Final gig.
