He’s won some big games as well.

It was a tweet read so much stuff on this today can't track it down wish i could now, but it went along the lines of Powell made the most of that didn't take him long to learn Wires cheating ways.

For what it's worth I think the Dupree one is soft, it's petulant, it's annoying but its never going to hurt someone and if the boot was on the other foot and it was Vaughan that would have done it id have been peeved at a ban.

The Keighran one was dangerous and fully merited the ban.

I think as well the loss of Keighran will affect them more because of the goalkicking not because Smiths goalkeeping is terrible but because its another thing for him to think about in a big game.

Just picking up on a few comments here. I'm thinking that Wigan have a few more hot heads than us ... and expect that one might disappear early at Wembley. They do have a bit of history.

Ok mate. I think Nikos was suggesting that Wigan supporters had labelled Pow a cheat but I don’t think that was the case. Pow definitely does not fall into such a category. Regarding the suspensions personally I have moved on, it is old news.

You have got to kill somebody to get sent off at Wembley

Dupree is a massive loss for Wigan, Keighran for his defensive abilities, as well. Attack wise for a centre he’s abit hit and miss, goal kicking the lads got a good boot on him. That could be crucial in what might be a close game, Smith will have to step up.

True but we both know it won’t happen.

It is going to be interesting to see which official gets the honour of reffing on Saturday. Controlling the ruck will be vital to an open game.Without that we could end up watching a masterclass of lying on and interference leading to a stop start affair which will suit one team and not the other. Let’s hope it’s not Kendall or our fate is sealed

Kendall is the ref Liam Moore is video ref

OMG Kendall I'd be more worried if we were playing saints he'll be bad but he'll make it about him, which could go either way, he will be crap at policing the ruck but we can still do it.

It's Liam Moore that is the travesty that man should be nowhere any Wigan game after his heroics in the WCC, let alone the final.

As always if we’re good enough the ref won’t matter

Wigan confirm they not appealing either ban.

Must employ a different barrister to Saints then.
