| As a neutral I'd say the reason you lost the match was because Carvell dropped the ball. Had that not happened, I think you would have held on.
The reason Leeds got so close to you is you gave away too many penalties at one point in the game and at another point in the game you had a spell like we did on friday night when the opposition ran all over you for a while. Again, had those things not happened, you would have won.

What's not to get?
We had a penalty underneath the posts, 2 minutes before half time and decided to tap rather than going for the 2.
To me, THAT and a few other decisions were the reasons why we lost and not the last minute try and conversion by Leeds.

In the first argument you provided, no..........but then when you were proved wrong, you changed your argument just to try and get a yes answer.

Did you or did you not say 1 kick doesnt matter, when Leeds won the game with one kick, you cant have it both ways. The difference in the end was we missed a simple kick near the end, and Leeds kicked a great goal.

| All these IFs and BUTs. I believe it was stupid not to take the two points just before half time, but to say that that decision ultimately cost us the game is very naive.
Had we taken those two points, then the second half would have played out completely different. But assuming the hyperthetical second half proceeded as the real one did (which I doubt), we would have been 20-18 up and chances are would have played the percentages and kicked into the in goal rather than run for Coopers try. Maybe we would have scored from the kick, or maybe force a dropout, or maybe Scott Donald would have scooped the ball up and ran 100m with it to score.
The only IF that makes the slightest difference was IF Sinfield missed the last kick we would have drawn, as it was he didn't.
Better (but only slightly) team won, yet despite the defeat, and rightly or wrongly, I am far more confident tonight about next week than I was this afternoon.

| The look on Smiths face at the end was Priceless. The most overrated coach of the most overrated club. Cant wait for your season to be over next week. For once the whole of the Rugby League family will be hoping for a Wigan win.
