Quote: Grimmy "Just watched it again to make sure it's how I remember it. Percival puts himself in a dangerous position by trying to spin round and fall forwards when Clubb has his foot held still pointing backwards. Clubb is holding it still in a natural position. If Percival stays on his feet, or falls backwards (as would be natural) we get no issue there. I'm glad Percival didn't get injured as I was expecting it when it happened.'"


Fair enough, it all depends how the disciplinary panel see it though. Percival didn't seem too impressed with him

Quote: Grimmy "Do you think good rugby is entertaining? I sometimes worry that we've got to a point where the most effective way to win is the most conservative way. For example I've seen quite a bit of championship this year and found it more entertaining than SL and NRL, even though the skill level obviously isn't as good.'"


Good rugby is the best. Take Saints last Friday for example. Props running hard, great movement out the back, crisp passing, players running the right lines, good tactics and plenty of tries.
It was good rugby, and while we were all watching our own team implode, Saints fans were in ore and full of praise watching their own team play good rugby.

Good rugby is always the best to watch, at times we’ve seen some amazing performances from past Wigan teams and individual brilliance; so yes. Good rugby is more than entertaining, it makes memories for a life time.

Quote: MadDogg "Not knocking Wane, Lam or anyone in particular but watching some of the playoff highlights from 2000-2001 on Wigan TV - the gap in quality between then and now is enormous. Forget comparisons with the NRL, how has the SL fallen so far below its own previous standards?'"


I don’t know to be honest. When there’s a decline there’s often several factors which all contribute.

Quote: sergeant pepper "Maybe I'm boring, but I actually enjoy the tough/defensive approach to the game.

Madge was the pinnacle imo. He had a tough style that was executed, along with the basics, extremely well on a consistent basis.'"


You’re not boring I agree mate. Tough D is great to watch. Fast line speed, crunching tackles all raise the intensity of the game. We’ve all heard the crowd cheer and chant the teams name after a big shot or watching us knock the other team back with fast line speed and gang tackling. It’s a joy to watch.

Additionally good D forces the opposition to be better, they have to produce better rugby to overcome the tough D to win.

One of the best games was the Widnes game v Wigan that Wigan won,if I recal rightly 7-0,it was fascinating to watch,even if the weather that night wasn’t the best

Totally agree.
Defence can be a joy to watch, every winning team has to be good in D, speed off the line, gang tackling, big hits, the last minute one and one try saver, all very entertaining.
