I can't see what was wrong with the hit on Lineham. I remember Morley's hit on Harrison Hansen in the final minute of the home game vs Wigan in 2010. No complaints from Warrington fans then. It's a lot of the attraction of Rugby League.

If it was roles reversed the South stand would have been in rapture at the aggressive defence.

the rules have changed since that Morley hit..if he did that now it would be a pen.

It's been outlawed since then.

The Lineham injury was due to a head clash I'm sure I saw the blood bin card held up, a good tackle just within the limit only for the head clash he would probably have got up and played the ball.

What was the injury situation from last night? I had to put up with watching with no commentary in a bar in Lanzarote & without any rain & snow. Still, i enjoyed the game & i´m sure my sacrifice has been worth it.

Wigan had a lot of them, injuries that is

No wonder Wane looked suicidal. I´m sure Tony Smith offered him a hankey at the final whistle.

for us, atkins has fractured a finger, did it quite early on in the game then was taken off with about 10 left, i think, lineham was taken to hospital with his head injury so he'll be a doubt and evans had multiple knocks last night, couple of face and head and he thought his shoulder had popped again.

Incidentally, anyone notice we had about a 3 players with blood coming out of face injuries within the first twenty minutes or so yesterday, gids evans and russell, possibly lineham as well.

I didn't see Brian Bevan play other than in a testimonial, but understand he looked like he was held together by sticking plaster and looked much older than his years. Rhys Evans has obviously decided to "rock that look". But fair play a magnificently brave and effective performance.

Cox put on Twitter that 2 of his front teeth got a bit of a knock too.

Not sure how but the switching of Penny and Russell worked. Penny, and even his critics will agree, oozes energy and never stops talking. That's what I'd want from a fullback, directing the defence but also energising them.

Amazing really, in days gone by when the ball went near him you'd almost wince and expect a fumble, but he was excellent in difficult conditions last night. He has locked himself in the team, contributing in attack, but more in defence... Who'd have thought it!

Watched the match back when I got in and I'm sure I remember him being there before the game at least. Wasn't he waffling on about Salford having a 50/50 chance of making the super eights before their points deduction but now, if they win this weekend, they'll have a 50/50 chance of making the super eights!

Russell isn't brilliant under the high ball at the moment. As with lots of things its confidence. The interchange of positions between him and Russell is a real top class move. Kev is playing really well at the moment in both attack and defence. Long may it continue.
