Liam Farrell.... What a joke, ran faster than Forrest Gump after his cowardly shot on Ratchford, did nothing but hide till half time, (and cost his team a try while hiding

), looks like Ben Westwood will have something to say about that in the second half.......... Thats if Farrell finds his ba££$ during the half time break"!!!

Depends what grade the tear is, could be a couple of weeks, could be a lot longer. Hopefully it will be nothing major he was ripping them to pieces whilst he was on.

He walked off, think it wont be to bad

Declan Patton for Sandow & Benjamin Julien cover for Evans against Saints.

Agreed, its going to be really tough going for us now in this second half.

That's awesome, is the old Atkins back?

Lets wait till end of season to answer that, he owes us that much.

No but the old in penny is

Why do they get away with using the knees, shocking

Get penny off now

Knock-on off the knees??

Awful decision for that gidley knock on!! Worst ref in the league. Karetaker that's a good point he definitely owes us. He's been good so far this year though. Penny having a stinker but again he has been good this year until now.

I know i give it penny earlier,but he has not really done much wrong apart from a couple of brain farts

Excellent take by Penny

Hemmings moaning wiggin missing oloughin in the second half but no mention of sandow or evans for wire,what a prick

If it wasn't for Sandow we wouldn't have won that and he only played 20 minutes. Penny made it up in the end a couple of errors is not the end of the world.

If Hemmings had not told us 400 times i would not of known we played 3 games in 8 days.And worse of all stevo back in 3 weeks oh joy.

Better team won in the end.

I think his just for men fumes have gone to his head, Eddie and co can't even hide their disappointment we are top of league!!

Great effort tonight, significant win but paid the price with the injuries

You think? He tries plenty but not all of it comes off. He's a super player but that side is being lead and controlled by Kurt Gidley. I thought he put on a masterclass tonight.

The RFL need to look at the timing of big games like this. I'm certain Sandows injury is a result of playing three games in 7 days and the spectacle wasn't all it could be with weakened sides and fatigue.

Bigger and better games to come between the sides IMO.

What an effort.

For an "after Easter" game, where our 17 have outperformed their 20......


.....and before anybody starts, I'm not including the extra 3 as the officials....NO. I actually thought (bar the non knock on by Gidley) they had a good game....

the extra 3, were on the commentary gantry.
Hemmings had to wipe himself down, after Wigan's first try in the second half. It was almost akin to the big lead we had against Stain in Manchester Magic about 3 years ago. Stains scored a couple, and he screams THE COMEBACK'S ON. We absorb their pressure, and we see the game out.

The housewife's choice (Carney), made his mind up after 10 seconds of the game starting, that we were going to interfere, all game. No, Brian. Then in the second half, convinced himself that Wigan were the side in the ascendency, after the first set of 6 in the second half. Very quiet from 65 mins, onwards.

O'Connor didn't even realise that there was two sides on the pitch. All he talked about all night was Wigan.

PATHETIC, PATHETIC, PATHETIC BIASED COMMENTARY

Fair play to Clarke. Gave us praise, the whole game through.




Anyway
I've taken my Tramadol, and calmed down.
Superb from 1 -17 from us, despite the injury adversity in the first half.
Disappointing to see the anti-Penny brigade out, whilst the game was on. He tried to claim the ball, it came ose, and they scored. IT HAPPENS. Don't destroy the lad for it. I dare say Johns, Langer, Meninga, Daley etc, have done it, plenty of times.

Great industry from the pack.
Sandow (despite the injury) is the Messiah.......I should know, I've followed a few


Evans.....oh no. I like the lad. He's class, but......(you know the rest)

Despicable from Farrell (who's a good player), on Ratchford, but, typical Wigan from the 80s/90's when they were getting a beating...resort to poohouse tactics

finally, looking 13 miles north, Manfredi......



......he's a bit good, too

i think is exactly right... sandow is the icing on the cake.. Gidley is sublime.. The real leader we have been crying out for that makes this side hard to beat.

Gidley is an absolute machine.

Like Lefty, I thought it was disgraceful that Carney said we had no chance of winning unless we cheated. Happily we left that to Wigan, who are the pros.

fully justified their 'thug' tag again tonight.... like they always do when they come up against a superior side.

Well, the only thing I have to add is that Evans is replaceable, but Sandow ain't.

What do we reckon ? 8 weeks ?
