The twists with hands on the boot of the tackled player are there.
The move is not profound and neither is it frequent.
The sly tactic is only used on players who make a difference.
It was no secret that Bridge had niggles, Lockers just gave it a tweak.
Ratchford in the Grand final however needed something a lot more obvious and harder hitting because he wasn't carrying a knock.

The dark arts play book is plain to see in every tackle when Wigan are playing.

This bit in which the ref takes his time to let three men peel off in the tackle is nonsense, give a set time from saying held and if theyre not off then tough, put less men in the tackle then.

Slows the game down a ridiculous amount. I can watch Wigan games on my phone while cutting my toe nails in the bath - half concentrating on the game - yet I miss nothing exciting as a huge percentage of the game is just a rugby union looking pile-on on the floor.

Followed by the third man falling over as he rolls off and ending up between the tackled player and the acting halfback.

I'd penalise that, it'll be mayhem at first but they'll soon learn.

I'd stamp on the Fuckers, like what happens in union, end up on the wrong side of a ruck and bang

You wanna give Wigan the chance to stamp on someone or gaz hock for example? They'd run out of studs to put in there boots and replace them with razor blades
