To be honest, Wigan was a bit hard done by, we were gifted 2 tries that should not of been tries, that forward pass was a mile forward and Mguire knocked the ball on so none should of been given. I have always say you need the rub of the green in big games and a need a bit of luck and we had it on the day.

I think we was the better side and deserved it but no Wigan fans are saying we dont, the ones I have spoken to are just a bit miffed at the ref and I can see their point.

I have no doubt that you guys wont bounce back, your such a good team, the best in super league this year by a long way.

Looking at it now i think Ablett is just ok, it's close, but just onside, he does run very hard after the kick to put the pressure on Tomkins. Would be harsh, but Warrington got one disallowed against Leeds at Headingley this year for the same thing and Australia too against England in the 4 Nations Final so going by them it would of been disallowed if offside but he just stayed on.

Thanks for confirming - it would have been yet another "bad decision".

In the final analogy, though, Leeds were the better team and deserved to win. Just can't get over how lethargic/lacking in energy so many of the Wigan pack were: Lima, Mossop, MM, Hansen, Tuson. Only Hock, Flower and Farrell were conspicuous when going forward.

I think the start just rattled them and in turn got Leeds' tails up, if Sinfield put's in 2 poor kicks instead in those opening 6 minutes then no scores, no pressure, no concern. It's not a position Wigan have found themselves in much if at all over the last 3 seasons to be 16-0 down early on, it's usually the other way round, so must of come to a bit of a shock to the system for the players and it can't help if you've never been in that scenerio before to know how to cope, although they did give it a good shot, after the first 12 mins Wigan actually outscored Leeds 28-23. As i've witnessed at Leeds a few times over the last 18 months, when the match isn't going your way some forwards don't seem as keen to put their hand up and change that, when it is going well everyone seems to want the ball (view the praise the likes of Kirke & Griffin are getting on the Leeds board atm), strange but how it goes sometimes.

Leeds did what they set out to do, Wigan didn't. Maybe money pressure, injury pressure and expectation to win got to a lot of players, whereas Leeds got on with the job at hand. Wane should look at resting a few players for the big push. Gelling should be dropped, watch a replay of him from May and compare him to how he's playing now, he's not improved one bit. Faz has got to learn how to commit a fullback and learn how to pass, he looks th epart at loose forward. Sam needs to go to the Stevie Hampson school of bomb defusal. Matty Smith could not have come at a better time, thank the Lord!
Lets applaud Leeds and move on.
