No Sam = No chance

Leeds it is

gonna be some flaming barrells and monkey thrown in the home changing room tonight.

When leading 12-11 Wigan had numerous opportunities to take a drop goal to give 2 point lead, thus preventing either a Leeds drop goal draw, or Leeds penalty win. Why didn't they take this option? Poor infield decision making or poor off field direction ?

Well Thats one of the top 2 gone........AGAIN

Fantastic game of rugby league. Truly love this sport at it's best; at it's best it is the greatest game of all.

There certainly wont be a 15 page thread about how Leeds get favourable calls this week on the Wigan (or wherever it's moved to!) board. Wigan had every favourable call going.

Kevin Sinfield, Jamie Peacock, Bret Delany, Rob Burrow, Ryan Hall...to be honest the whole team, were magnificent.

Well, it's over to us now. We know what we need to do. We know we can beat Leeds in a final. We must hold that thought for this weekend though and go and do a professional job - and we will have to be as good as Leeds were tonight - to win at Langtree Park.

NOW THE WIRE!

Really enjoyed that. tremendous game.

come on wire! lets move up quickly in defense like leeds have done tonight and we have done when we beat
pies and saints a few months ago. this is a great chance for us. lets get our hoodoo over tomorrow and
things could be spot on by next week if we put our mind to it like we have in most of the big games, and
like leeds have done tonight

now you know why i cant stand silverdud,normally gives decision like that for saints especially when they play us..justice was done tonight...wonder how many pie cryers will be on here tonight..

Leeds were by far the superior team.... only a totally obscene refereeing display from silverwood prevented leeds from doing the job easily.... at half time wane must have told him to 'ref the second half like leeds are warrington'... he gave wigan every call... it was inept refereeing beyond all belief.....infact it was bordering on corruption.

luckily the rugby gods intervened and the best team won...... congratulations to leeds... they were easily the best team they deserved to win tonight's game.

without tomkins wigan were what we thought they are.... a bit clueless.... thats why we beat them all the time... we nullify tomkins and the rest of the players aren't good enough to live with us.

Wane got his team wrong tonight big time.

Tonight - in my view Wane lost the match by playing an inexperienced youngster in a crucial position against one of the very best kickers in SL. It was obvious what Leeds would do. And Sinfield had one of his best ever matches for Leeds. It's just amazing how Leeds manage to turn it on when it matters.
I'd have put Richards in at fullback tbh and if Murphy had to play they he should have been on the wing, but I think Wigan probably have one or two others would could have played there (wing). Fullback is a key position these days.
I feel sorry for Murphy, but Wane should take the flak.

For tomorrow we have to stop Roby and Soliola - and also Puletua.

Murphy wasn't targeted. They kicked to Charnley's wing and boxed Wigan in against the sideline. Simple tactics executed perfectly (take a bow Mr Sinfield) that nullified the league leaders. Rugby League at its best.

One man team, although Silverwood tried hard to fill that gap. Guess Wigan's very own Elvis impersonator won't be on here with his "Yorkshire Mafia" conspiracy theories this week.

To be honest, I can't even laugh at Wigan, I'm that annoyed.

Tonight was won of RL's prestige days of the season, yet the "ref" drops clangers
We might have got a few "never seen our game befores" (on Sky), and yet we get more reffing f ups.
Yes, it's now a 100mph game, but come on, Silverwood got so much wrong, it's untrue.
We can't go on making excuses for reffing f ups. Our game's been let down tonight. I wanted a true match, with no controversy. I only got 50% of that deal.
Tomorrow, we've got the accident waiting to happen (for both sides) reffing our game. I truly hope the side that wins has no pivotal (i.e. wrong) decisions, go their way.
