| Quote JackH="JackH"Flower punching someone has nothing to do with tactics or the way Wigan play. There is no part of our strategy that involves smacking someone in the opening 2 minutes of a game. You're just bending it to fit your own narratives. He lost his head, it happens to players from time to time. It's not like Westwood's seemingly premeditated punch in last years game.'"
I agree it's not like Westwoods last year, Flower's was far far worse, Could you explain exactly what you mean by your last sentence.

| Quote stillinthepast="stillinthepast"Dave maybe what you say is right about no Wigan players being sent off this season, but what must get other fans backs up is Wane going on record that Wigan will do what thet have to do to get an advantage ( the recent behind the scenes showing Wane saying what tactics he expexts Wigan players to resort to hurt other teams.
Also what am having trouble coming to terms with is that Wane or no Wigan player came up before the camera in the post match interviews.'"
I think Wane would have said something he might regret had he done so.
I also think the "hurt" comments are to do with hitting hard. I think it's a bit hypocritical of other fans as they would love it if there was a huge tackle on say Smith or Green that left them winded or made them think twice about doing certain things. It's been part of the game as long as I can remember. Equating what Flower did as part of Wane's tactics is crazy.

| How can you wind a player below the knees and around the head.

I think what they meant was Westwoods was an unprovoked attack on a player on the ground. a stupid reaction to having an elbow in the face, just a deliberate attempt to take a player out of the game. Which is where the hypocrisy comes from that its Wigan who are a bunch of thugs. Westwood led the way on that score.

Flower lost his head and did something stupid, Westwood without any emotion put in a sly punch on Green to try and take him out of the game. Obviously Flowers was worse but there is no way on Earth that his was tactics or gamesmanship like some people have been saying.

And with Walsh and Lomax I think we would have cruised it ... such is life.

But when most RL fans would have watched Wane's speech in New Zealand and heard his not so subtle distaste for Saints following the Wire game, you have to accept that these conclusions will be jumped to?

What planet are you on? That last punch on someone unconcious could have been fatal.
