| I just thought it was an entertaining game and was very encouraged with what I saw. Very difficult opening 2 games and we might well be played 2 won 0 but I am not throwing the towel in just yet

You still had 4 men on the bench until Burrell's injury. Basic maths.

| Quote: morleys_deckchair "the outcome was that the referee, who had a terrible game, sent off a player for accidental contact with the head.
if the player jumps up and shakes his head like Daryl Clark would have... its a penalty and no one is overly bothered about it.
the thing you seem to be failing to grasp is that the sending off is a result of the injury NOT the tackle.
its not that difficult a concept to grasp.'"
So, if I break my leg because of a trip then my opponent should be sent off? Or if I break my nose and lose my teeth because I come into contact with my opponent's knee, accidentally, then he should walk?

| Quote: morleys_deckchair "like i said.... he was penalised for the outcome, rather than the actual tackle.... if the player doesn't stoop down so quickly, hill probably gets both arms around the ball and were talking about an amazing tackle.
its fine margins.. especially when a player is diving to the floor. .. its contact with the head, buts its unfortunate... nothing more.
eye gouging and leading with the elbow into someones throat are both worse offences for me.'"
What was Powell supposed to do? Hill hit him fair and square with the forearm. Bad technique, unlucky, whatever it was a bad foul irrespective of whether he intended it or not. Have you ever had a finger in your eye? I can tell you now that you wouldn't react like Austin.

| Wigan scored one penalty try, and once whilst we were down to 11 men.
I took a lot of confidence from that performance, and i'm sure Price was the happier of the two managers, based on performance after Hill's red.
Wigan fans must surely believe they've had a let off there.

Wigan know they've dodged a 12 man bullett there, and they should be the.more worried of the two teams.'"
Should we still be worried?

| We weren't worried during the game nor after it.
BMM scored a good try clearing three Wigan defenders out of his way. French scored a good try whilst two Wire props stood there and watched him go past them.
If Hill hadn't fouled Powell he'd have scored anyway as Hastings inside pass cut the Wire defence wide open.
Had it remained 13 a side I'm sure Wigan would have won and convincingly. Going down to 12 gave the Wire players that energy and steel in defence they didn't have whilst there were 13 a side on the pitch.
This Wire squad has an abundance of individual quality players, probably more than any other club in SL. As you Wire fans will know by now that has not brought together a quality team.
That is your problem that needs addressing.

Look on the bright side Duckie. You might get a few more points in the prediction competition now you finally realise that constantly betting on Wire to win and Wigan to lose is not the percentage bet.

I will never bet against my team, and it didn’t stop me winning it last season.

Can't say I blame you. I wouldn't bet against mine either.
I'm interested to know if you still stand by you're preseason assessment that Wire on a different level to Wigan? 4 games in and Wigan are getting better and better whereas Wire have dropped off a cliff already. Early days, I know, but your initial assessment never seemed to have much credence in the first place and is looking more like the ramblings of a madman by the week.
