This thread wont be complete until every decision in the game has been analysed will it?

Ok ill start at the very beginning, does anyone have any issues with the coin toss?

If not lets move on......

Was anyone offside from the initial kick off, should a penalty have been blown?

.................................

Ive started you off, feel free to carry on from there

Every Hull player besides Connor should have been sin binned for not taking the knee for Black lives matter.

Can recall when French dropped a kick through and legitimate penalty given against Sneyd for pushing Hardaker and Farimo running to the line. When did your French/Connor/Griffin incident happen? I will take a look at it.

Ball steal against Griffin was marginal.

Kendall was in the perfect position on the Hastings pass with the TJ a metre away. Not forward from my viewing.

A fair assessment

He doesn't

Have to agree with DaveK, there were some odd decisions, but Wigan deserved the win, simple as that, had Griffin not ran across the pitch to act like a child it could have been different, but he did what he did (which, unfortunately, some fellow FC fans probably think was funny), did it cost is the game, no.

Well done Wigan, but I do hope Catalans beat Saints tonight, and then win it at the KC, that would really mess with Donnyman's swede!

Ive seen much worse ref performances that didnt get their own thread on here.

Must be because everyone on this forum are " Grrrr Wigan"

why

Hull lost because they are a one trick pony team of fast track south sea island bullies. Wigan are to tough and smart to be beaten by that.

Refs make mistakes but that wasn’t going to change the result. Wigan slaughtered Hull in every facet of the game.

hardaker was offside for that knock on, he was in front of french.

i stayed off here and twitter last night during the game, but i text a mate at half time, saying that wigan were getting all the 50/50s hull were not getting anything from kendall, yes the griffin incident was bloody stupid and bloody blatant.

Sky talked hull up like they beat australia last week, they beat misfiring warrington.

Whilst i'm an advocate for connor at fb, last night he had a stinker, the amount of passes he wasn't in place for or dropped, and likewise sneyd, he's a great SH when your in front and killing a game, they really put the pressure on him last night and he folded goodstyle.

Ultimately, even though Hull seemed hard done by, particularly in the first half, they made too many mistakes and the Pies defence deserves some credit. It was outstanding and on a whole different level to Wire last week.

The better side won no question

As a Wigan fan I thought we got away with one there. I thought it should have been a penalty to Hull if anything.

Over on our board we have a guy who clarified the rule asHardaker is offside from French's knock on but pushing him denies him the opportunity to get onside and defend. If he isn't pushed over there then maybe he gets onside and tackles Mau into touch (so would go back to Hull turnover for French's knock on). More likely he would have dived on the ball and given up the offside penalty if the officials picked it up (there's about 3 metres in it so I suspect they might have gone with the safer call of a Hull play the ball if that had happened).

Even if he isn't pushed over and does dive on the ball, you need more than that to be a professional foul. There's about 3 metres between where French knocks on and Hardaker would have picked it up, too quick for the ref to tell him he's offside, and three defenders in the area who may prevent a try (French, Hardaker, Bibby). To bin someone for a professional foul you want something a lot more clear cut that no one can argue with (e.g if Bibby had tackled Faraimo off the ball before he caught the final pass back inside that would be a pro foul).[/i

I disagree with it still, but that's the ruling.

The head pat has been given as a penalty plenty of times especially if it causes the melee that it caused last night. A deserved penalty.

Strange how the commentary team felt it was ok this week, but not when Brad Singleton shouted at (no contact made) Regan Grace the other week.

typical sky though, stuff they spend hours crying about previously gets forgotten about later. Its the same thing with players getting caught wrong side of the ruck in front of the DH, it started happening again this year, players are stepping up and forwards instead of going back as it was amended last season. Sky haven't mentioned it once.

I love this fascination about referees .

“We lost because of the ref”.

I wanted Hull to win.

I really don’t want Wigan to win SL.

Some of the 50 /50 calls went against Hull


BUT

Wigan were by some distance the best team.

They dominated Hull in the forwards and that meant they dominated the game. In general the dominant team tend to get the calls.

Just get on with it and I hope Saints beat Catalans ( and I am only saying that because I cannot see Catalans beating Wigan in the final Otherwise would be supporting Catalan).

Saints will win it IMO
