Cannot believe some of the posts on here, I was at the game last night and it was fantastic. Gutted about the score but it went the right way in the end well done to Wolves on Fri night, thought you played your socks off, plus ref was even worse than we had last night! Good luck to Saints later (that's coming from a Warrior- always a rugby league fan before a Wigan Warrior ) can't wait for the game and hoping saints come up with the win x

sunday September 1st 2013, when a dream became a reality!!:2115.jpg
the penalty against bateman..if that was a super league game against Wigan everyone would be saying it was the correct decision, you can't just accept decisions when it suits, bateman took 2 or 3 steps towards the broncos player ( who yes did milk it a little) but as everyone bar Phil Clarke said at the time, if he stands still,then no penalty is awarded, the fact is he kept moving towards the Brisbane player making the referee's decision easier, it might not have been much movement but he moved towards the ball carrier.. regardless that didn't alter the result of the game, the last minute penalty for ball stripping/head grabbing did and you can't say that wasn't the right call surely?

I didn't think the decision against Bateman was wrong. Yeah, the Brisbane player dived but Batman did move towards him.
Phil Clarke's reaction though? Priceless.

The last minute penalty was given for alleged ball stealing. IMO it was a loose carry. There was no head grabbing so stop trying to embellish the situation.
Bateman did not move towards the Broncos player. He had his back to him an moved sideways. The Broncos player deliberately and cleverly spotted the opportunity for a penalty and to say he milked it is an under statement.
If Wigan's pack were 'smashed', your lot rolled over, spread 'em wide and applied a liberal dose of KY jelly to a soundtrack of Barry White.
I'd even suggest checking the Saints' betting accounts. Again. PLEASE, someone tell me half a dozen Saints players have been spotted at a bookies, we need an excuse quick! That was more embarressing than our attendances in SL last year .........well, maybe not that bad, lol
