Quote: Bully_Boxer "I didn't see a lot wrong with Pele tackle, suspect it was reputation that got him sent off. When he returned he was a real handful and also got through a fair bit of defence. Lehmann looked like he has been playing in the group a year, very promising.
Thought Holmes had a great game, a real running threat in the 2nd half. McGowan slotted back in at full back and came up with some really good plays. Okunbor was in the crowd wearing a RAB top, looks like he is still very much part of the group.'"
As a neutral Wigan fan, I thought Pele put in a fantastic tackle. The Dewsberry player cacked it when he saw Pele hurtling towards him and tried to throw the ball away but got crunched. The referee bottled it and sin-binned him for a "late tackle" yet the ball hadn't even left the Dewsberry player's hands, it was the collision that forced it out—terrible call from the ref.
