Only bitterness stops you from appreciating that try as one of if not the the best CCF tries.

Atkins handed off two players after scooting from acting half, so it was just as good as Joel's by your definition. Never have i said that it didn't take some scoring, but so did atkins. So, Once again, you have FAILED. Yes i am a y fan, oh no, what an insult, we are so y that we have still got a chance of beating you to win the league leaders shield. moron.

Another bitter y on our board trying to find every little thing to snipe at. Atkins is crap anyway so you FAIL.

Tomkins try was better because we say so, after all WE ARE WIGAN.

Go sniff you bitter little y fan.

im getting soooo fed up of us always getting slated,
its getting very stupid these days,

A confession. When JT set sail for that try I thought "Oh no, he'll take the wrong option". I am still far from convinced about him at centre.

I was delighted to be proved wrong. He took the try superbly, it was a breathtaking combination of strength, pace and footwork.

It was one of the all time great Wembley tries.

I'm still not sure he's a centre. But I do know one thing: only a great player could have scored that try.

Well done Joel, congratulations on writing yourself into RL history. People will be talking about that try for a very, very long time.

Reminds me a lot of the try which Tomkins scored vs Wakefield last year (the game when paint allegedly dried). Feel sure that score was a big influence on Maguire picking him at centre this year. Yet another example of excellence in coaching.
