Lol...... Quality, he propper threw them teddies on a few occasions tonight. Thought he was gonna start crying at one point

We had one dubious try given, Wigan had two and could easily have had a man sent off. How exactly were they beaten by the ref?

If that's the case why take the def back 11/12 metres why not stick to the standard 10 metres?

All refs do it, Silverspud had no excuses in this instance as the PTB was 2 metres behind the 30 metre line but he took the def line back to the 40 metre line (12 metres). So by the rules Briers was 10 metres away from the PTB and onside

Genuine question. Can someone explain why Briers is off side.

Silverwood, like most refs take the players back more than 10. Let us say 11 in this instance. Briers was arguably less than 1 metre ahead of Silverwood, so that makes him 10 metres behind the play the ball.

Yes he is offside in the fact that he is ahead of Silverwood. But refs allows players to be in front of them all the time. The reason is because as long as they aren't too far in front they are still more than 10 behind. Though I guess they run the risk of being penalised.

I need to learn to read!! Sorry, already discussed.

On another point, if the Farrell tackle was complete then he was interferred with, and should have been a Wigan pen.

Though he still played the ball incorrectly, so the ref should have blown. Just because the opposition infringed doesn't mean it is play on. It wouldn't be play on if he knocked on, when being impeded.

Silverwood was terrible, which made the game a bit of a lottery. All in all I think Wigan got more 50/50 calls, but still managed to lose against a Warrington side nowhere near top form. Got to be encouraged by that!

deary me you should leave the cider alone
