Hardly ever off the pitch he may as well have put a shirt on. 5 minutes on the pitch before their 2nd try pointing their halves where to pass the ball and then ultimately to kick it. He still wouldn't get off even after they scored. Didn't Souths do the exact same? Absolute joke it is. About sums Wigan's average half backs up.

Well said but the thing is that like the shoulder charge to Burns head nothing will be mentioned on TV etc and more so like the nothing will change.

Did the same at our place. Never off the field. Stood behind like a fullback dictating play!

Why mention Burns not playing today, beaten by a team that was struggling for form

omg, shut up. You all sound like sore losers. Do you really think anything he did influenced the play?

And you can shut up too "beaten by a team struggling for form". Do you even follow wigan and their recent results?

Technically we are all typing, so shutting up will do little to stop us putting our view point across.

Smart Arse.

Yes he did influence the game, he was moving in the line directing play. He soon vanished when he got stick from the crowd.

I don't know why we don't have longy doing it, he was never off the field at salford. I think we missing a trick not having him on the touch line.

Sigh

Im actually cringing. Im a saints fan, we lost to the better team on the day and all some saints fans can do is blame some water boy for being on the pitch for too long instead of giving credit to wigans defense and execution of plays

Sad

Yes by a country mile when he is pointing out to their half backs to kick it to the corner behind the winger and they score a try from it. How is that not influencing the play?

Halfbacks are there to direct the forwards and set up the plays. If we are letting the water carrier do it then we may as well have time outs and just let the coach call each play.

Lets take a hypothetical situation. Its last tackle. You are in the crowd, you see saints have a twelve on 1 overlap? What do you do? You scream at the top of your little lungs for our half backs to get the ball out wide. Damn, you have influenced play! How dare you! In reality, our half backs already saw that. Just like wigan did tiday. You are doing wigan a great injustice by stating that Deacon, a water carrier won them the game, when in reality, wigan were the better team. get over it and stop comming across as a 9 year old who cant take losing. Grow a pair and stop looking like a sore loser and give wigan the credit they deserve

It's technically an infringement of match regulations. If Deacon is doing things he shouldn't be, then it's up to the RFL to change that. (Lol)

I didn't see it happening as I watched on Sky and the further thing behind Wigan's line I could see was the referee, who had a hard game as he couldn't see play because there were 13 Wigan players in front of him all the time.

My point exactly, not much point in saying anything nothing will change .... it just gives ammo to the saddos who'll just say its sour grapes. The thing is it was a good close game and it hurts me to say but we were beaten by the better team on the day!

I also thought over all the ref had a decent game he kept the game flowing he let some high shots go (both ways) of sides and a kick at Hohaia but it was a speedy game.
