After all this arguing I can't understand why Union is more popular and currently miles more watchable....I understand their rules as in any contact with the head is a penalty. We're all debating that. I watched the hockey in the Olympics and the ball can't touch the foot and it's accepted as a rule. Only in rugby League currently is this fact up for debate. There was no intention and it was an accidental.... The level of injury should always be inconsequential. It happened and Marshal failed the his hia. To me it's a penalty as harsh as it is against cjarnley. I don't even blame the ref as rugby League is shooting itself all the time with great ideas...... It's never consistent and therefore this debate is happening. It's why unless you're involved/been brought up with/played the game then no people are attracted to the game. I may be wrong and that's ok, but that's my opinion...... The way I see it contact to the head is a penalty regardless of intent or it's down to the referees discretion. I've been watching rugby League for 32 years and even I don't know what's the right decision. I'm also biased in wigans favour but to be fair the players didn't look like they knew what's happening. I'm trying to be fair here and I understand why Union is more widely watched as the rules can be explained. If I was trying to show a new fan now and explain the rules to them then I really don't know where to start. Sorry for the long message

If Lam is so bad as the Coach, why has he not been sacked by Lenagan?
Could the reason be that Wigan have not got the finance to offer another Coach a better contract than what Lam has got?
Time that some supporters took the blinkers off and faced the reality that Wigan is no longer the biggest and best financed club on this side of the Pennines.

Leicester won the Prem in football didn't make them bigger than Liverpool or Man U. Seeing Wire have not won the title in a long time (sorry I can't remember exactly) they are not even equivalent to a Leicester. Even if they won everything for a period of time I'm guessing we would all be pushing up daisies before they past Widnes never mind Saints and Wigan. |

| Quote: afootingmiracle21-12 "The more pertinent question for me is, how did we not beat a team with 44% completion in the first half and less than 60% across the whole game!
Warrington are a very poor side despite their spending, and can only occasionally turn it on and have a good day. Theyre another Castleford, which is why they'll never get near champions this year.
But the worrying thing for me was, Wire were so poor yet we were never really in the game. Dominated field position and possession yet lackluster and completely devoid of ideas near the line. We never looked like making a break and kicks were our best chance of scoring.
For Lam to come out and say that was 'outstanding' is baffling! ![]()
Were not perfect, but were third in the table with a 75% win ratio, your comment just seems to be a bitter one, in the context of SL where Castleford are 42%. Not saying were the real deal and will get to OT, but the opportunity is still there (and for Wigan). SP is not everyone's cup of tea, and most supporters are looking forward to a new man at the helm in 2022. In the meantime, take it on the chin, as there are more important games yet to come.

| Quote: rubber duckie "He did, and if you were along the stand in the right position to follow Mamo and still see Marshall, you would have seen Marshall thump the ground. That wasn’t picked up on camera, the camera was following play. At that point he was suddenly prone knocked out!
And if he has failed a head assessment, I would say he’s let Wigan down, as he has took his kid-ologies too far and made himself unavailable for Sunday. We have all bluffed a bad back to get a day off work or being concussed at some point in our life. It’s not difficult to pretend your knocked out.'"
Were you there RD? You told everyone on the Warrington board that you wouldn't attend a game of rugby as you didn't want to pass on Covid to your elderly father, who has health issues. Either you've told a massive porky on our board, or you haven't personally seen this happen. |
