Totally agree, it was cringeworthy, they were saying it's the game of the season after 10 mins. Very good tight game but no classic. Our game was better.

Sky seemed obsessed with showing us a shot of Daryl Powell every 3 or 4 minutes.

I thought Powell looked pi55ed during the game, and he sounded it in the post match interview. It was like listening to punch drunk boxer.

That's why I'd go with Golding on the wing vs Wakey. Handley has done really well. But we need him to cover for Briscoe for 3 months and you know that every opponent in that period will target him meaning he'll have a higher workload than most wingers on a weekly basis.

So let him have Monday off and rest up for Salford on the Sunday.

Would rest Stevie Ward on Monday too if Ablett's hand is ok. The latter only played 20 mins so shouldn't be too knackered and Ward has done a ton of work this year (pre-season also) so let's not burn him out.

Yep and who said it? that yorkie bar Speedo! I thought it was an average performance and you did have the rub of the green!!!

Regarding commentary.....how good was it NOT to have Stuart Cummings in the Leeds/Cas game chipping in on every decision. Proof that they should get rid of him.

Typical "Wigan can't see further than their own ar*e
" comment here.

Don't relocate for your sake stay where you are

Yep. A bit of skill from either side would have seen them walk it. Wigan compacted their defence and Saints were lacking their 3 main passers to get around them. Poor handling, all biff and bash.

Was pretty annoying having to listen to "this is just the hors d'oeuvre, the main course is coming up later" from the tossbags at Sky. Our game was much more skilful, Leeds completion rate was staggering, and it's not like we didn't try offloads etc. The game of the season quote after 10 minutes was also total nonsense. A p!$$ poor kick play from their first set from Saints and a spawny ricochet do not a classic make. And 80 minutes of mud facials should only be found in a spa resort, Wigan should charge extra for those.

In how many so-called professional jobs do people carry on doing the same job for 25 years? Yet that is precisely what happens in sports commentary.
Well overdue for Sky to shuffle the pack.
But not by simply promoting Barry & Tez.
