Once you understand the meaning of the word 'parochial' you should try again.
Yes, it was.

Penalty Warrington, voluntary tackle would have been the correct call.

So Bowen laid on the floor waiting to be tackled? Volantary tackle then?

You'd better phone Ian Lenegan, quick, and tell him about this progamme you saw on TV. The crazy fool is probably just blinded by the grand finals and all the successful home grown players. Little does he know that you've found out his coach is no good.

I thought that was a possible call at the time, wouldn't have had much argument with it. I think in this case Bowen was already clear of the line, but there are cases all the time where a player in goal dives forward to get the ball in front of the line and isn't called for a voluntary tackle, even though you couldn't claim he was genuinely trying to stay on his feet and avoid a tackle.

It was edited you plank. Do you really.think Wigan would broadcast tactical things to the world in the middle of the play offs.

| A tackle is only voluntary if the player plays the ball before being tackled, which I'm not sure I agree with.

I bet you do, the thought of another period of Wigan dominance terrifies most on here.

Sorry for taking this O/T but Hull won the CC in 2005, which as far as I'm aware isn't even 1 decade ago. Add in the finals in 2006, 2008 & 2013 I'd class them as being near a cup.

The rule states a player shall not unnecessarily go to ground. Trying to get back into play from the in goal is clearly a necessary course of action and will never be penalised.

Fair enough, but then Bowen could argue his action was 'necessary' in order to avoid being bundled back over the line. Both cases involve a player doing what they deem necessary in order to avoid the same outcome. IMO, the only time, if even at all, the rule should apply is in the case of deliberate time wasting.

Really? You should check the history books and then come back for another go.

Give em a break, you're forgetting that most Warrington fans have only been watching since 2009.
