It may for some
But I can see what your trying to do, make out that were only saying these things because he's going or because he's not a Wiganner.

Well the same people who may have thought he was a world beater before he had 20 appearances under his belt may think like that but don't make out "All" wigan fans thought that, and are now subsequently bashing him.

He is a young lad who has some very good attributes, and a couple not so good.
He has plenty time to work on his game and will improve I'm sure, but for now IMO that's best from the bench

We as fans of the sport are always quick to give out grief, but i think it is worth saying how much better everything seems to be this year. Common sense being used in the reviews, a higher quality of product on show then we have had for years (imo anyway, i have really enjoyed all the games i have seen so far this year bar Hull KR ), good attendences all around and genuine attempts to make matchdays feel more of an event. There is a good buzz around the league at the moment off the back of the world cup and WCC. Great but simple decisions like this are little things that all factor into keeping that momentum going. I am genuinely excited to see how the sport progresses in the next 5 years as that feels like the way we are going for the first time in a long while.

I have no doubt that a few years ago we would be here slagging off the RFL for the terrible decision they no doubt would have made by banning Marshall, feels good to be able to say well done for once.

I may be in a minority but I didn't think there was that much wrong with the Watts/Wardle one
He didn't "Shoulder" charge him in my view, he had his arm out and hit Wardle across his chest IMO
If Wardle had any Head issues it may have been from the landing or the Whiplash but not from any direct contact/shoulder

If this happened in the Saints game i can only apologise as i have not seen it due to being at the Wigan game so couldn't possibly comment.

Edit - If this statement is factual though, hopefully the referee does see disaplinary for completely dismissing an important call which then got flagged by others in the review room. I know this wouldn't help Saints in this scenario but it's about the best that could be done in that situation as that would be unacceptable if it was viewed multiple times by the video ref and on field referee.

I haven't seen it, but if it was a shoulder charge and it was blatant and obvious then the blame should probably go with the VR for not getting involved and letting the ref know.
