Bowen's was criminal and made worse by his offload to Bateman rather than taking the tackle.

I had no issue with going for goal. Take your points when behind and get level. Different game then. The issue was missing and it not going dead.


Bowen's decision not to challenge Makinson on the kick was poor too. Let him have it fine, but you smash him when he has you don't let him roll over you to score.

The delusion is by Leeds fans.
Why on earth would Leeds have won that Final more than any other Final which they have lost against us in RL's history.
Leeds lose to Wigan in Finals, that's what Leeds do!
I'd have thought they'd have got used to it by now!

As for Bentham and last Saturday, he should have sent Hohaia off and didn't, just as he should have sent Paul Wood off in round 27 and didn't.
Both those sendings off would have benfitted Wigan, he failed to make the correct decision in both games.

Its not Bentham I'm having a go at, to be fair he did well and Wigan made 80 mins of errors in defence and attack. I would like to know who the 2 video refs were who seem to hurry through the big decision, was it Ganson & Thaler?

Smith and Thaler.

I'm amazed nobody seems to see through his very simple strategy: Ignore foul play against Wigan players and eventually one of them will react, job- done.
All very well saying let the ref' deal with it, what do you do if he does'nt. He knows exactly what he is doing.
