There's nothing tactical about "biff" when it's illegal challenges that can get you banned.

Morley (in his Warrington years) and Peacock could enforce themselves on opponents without doing illegal challenges.

The danger for Westwood is he is going to become like Nikau was at Warrington. A once great player who is frustrated at not being the force of old and starts taking liberties.

Wigan win gf over and over with bending the rules.
The door is locked good if you remove the key.
Bennies hit was a fine line between legal and not.
Either way we needed the win and 10 mins was a bargain price for it.
We have the win and Bennie a week off. Everyone is a winner...except leeds.

No need for sky full game is on a popular video sharing sit search warrington Leeds and change filters to videos this week

no i dis agree had this been at leeds westwood would av gone..homer child always favours the home team he`s well known for it..just look at atkins 2nd try..if we get him at widnes we r knackered

We wasn't at Leeds, so your point isn't valid pal, but
I buy your theory though.
Your theory would make it difficult for a Ref to hold nerve and send someone off when at home, in a CC or GF, whereas if it was an away team, he would find it easy to send him off.

So by your own theory, you must except it is an advantage when not away from home.

Can't condone the Westwood "tackle", was at best stupidity, which could have cost us the match.

Wigan win Grand Finals over and over with good coaching and a youth system that produces lots of top players.

But you never know, maybe Wigan will be trying to sign Westwood from us if they think his approach could help give them a marginal edge in the Grand Final.

Wigan dead and buried and Wane calls a hit on Ratchford...
It certainly had a coach's influence.

Yet Westwood has been one of our best for the past 2 weeks, and a key reason we've improved IMO.

Seen the tackle on TV now: terrible. Think he can expect 3-4 matches. I feel no sympathy for Leeds though as they similarly benefited last week from Ferres' sickening tackle (which he was lucky to escape with 6 from I thought).

My other main reflection: Smith was derived on here by some a few weeks back for saying luck was against us and contributing to our poor form (note contributing, not the sole cause like the Smith out obsessives might have us believe). However, you can see just what he meant last night. We could (and should) have played 79 minutes, not 10, with 12 men, and though we were much better it's hard to see how we'd have overcome that. The margins are small, and single decisions can swing games. It's not the only thing, but it can play a part, and it was nice to get the rub of the green last night; it might just have saved our season!

Seen it now Dezzie, not very pretty & completely unnecessary. A shame when he was one of our better forwards for the rest of the match.

A very honest opinion and if these 2 incidents had been treated correctly would have seen us win
IMO Wolves were the best side over the game

It will be interesting to see the outcome of Westwoods challenge after the recent lengthy suspensions handed out
