After that, yes, you forced a lot of mistakes and capitalised on them. We forced some errors and did jack all with the possession, Delaney was like a man possessed today, your MOM imo.
Also, credit to Jones Bishop for grounding his try, brilliant catch.'"
As good as tomkins is let's not pretend he is radlinski under the ball |

The Tomkins spill was anything but an unforced error, it was forced by an excellent high kick which spiralled away from him toward the touchline. Any full back in the world would have struggled with that.
Lest we forget that two of Wigan's tries came from Jamie Jones-Buchanan coming up with soft one-on-one misses because he was too busy trying to anticipate what was going on behind the play and lost the lead runner.

Far from it. It's his big weakness. |

JJB was a statue at times yesterday in the defence and Wigan exploited it perfectly. |

I've stated this before. Without a doubt it's his achilles' heel. |

I've not read all the comments in the thread but I thought the majority of Wigan fans were great in defeat yesterday. I can't speak for others but my friends, family and myself all left the ground and congratulated loads of Leeds fans, even shook a few hands and wished them luck for the final. Not sure what more we could do? After a bad performance from our boys we only lost by 11 points to a good side, I'm sure we'll kick on from this and if we don't we'll no one else to blame but our selves!

Yep, I had not one problem with any Wigan fans yesterday. All the ones I met were perfectly civil, both before and after the game.
In fact, the only really unsavoury stuff came on the very, VERY overcrowded (and late) train back to Leeds when a couple of Leeds fans decided that a suitcase near the door was worthy of having a fight over. Happily their girlfriends/wives calmed them down by telling them to stop being such daft buggers. |

| Quote Famous="Famous"You were trolling though so you do troll, FACT
Leeds only won by 9 points against an awful Wigan team. This was after being gifted 3 tries by the ref and being gifted tries by shocking individual errors from Wigan players. Well done Leeds for the win and getting to the final but it was hardly a dominant performance. Wigan certainly will not play that badly all season and Leeds will be very lucky to get such generous decisions again. Leeds played about as good as they can where as Wigan were at about 40%, and thats being generous, and still scored 28 points. Todays win just papered over the cracks for Leeds.'"
All teams look great when the opposition let them play and Wigan are no exception, great sides are able to maintain standards when the pressure is on. In the last two knock games of real significance Wigan have been found wanting, both Saints and Leeds showed up and Wigan couldn't cope. This result says more about Wigan than it does about Leeds - are Wigan like Warrington flat track bullies who cannot cope with real adversity? |

Amazing, as i am totally impartial i can say that the only bad refereeing decision i saw was when Farell just befor half time gave a pass on the thirty that far forward he had to kick it (between the 30 & 20)and Wigan scored. |
