I thought he had a good game tonight, I really don't understand why they went to the screen over Phelps' try though. Sam was clearly trying to free his foot so he could play the ball. I couldn't believe the ref actually called Sam over to have a word with him before the game was restarted!

Loved how all the wire fans were booing him, they only boo the good 'uns Seriously we have somethin special here with him, imagine what he's gonna be like with a few years experience.

Quality, the guy played really well. The dire have a thread about how he tried to kick out before Phelps's try.

An absolute compliment that the wire fans were booing him.

He played well, where was Briers

He went to the screen to check whether Phelps knocked on or if it hit his foot when Tomkins played the ball.

Despite the fact he signalled that it came off the foot.

What I'm looking forward to most is when he puts a little bit more muscle on, at the minute he's breaking through a lot of tackles but fails to break the final tackle which usually stops him from scoring, with that little bit of extra strength he should be able to shrug them off a lot better.

Tomkins had a good game. He's had better imo and took one or two bad options near the Wire line but overall impressive again.

When the lad has a couple of years experience at the back of him he's going to be one hell of a player.

would've been nice if it touched tomkins boot.

Briers is going to hospital for an xray on his face.

So they might have a player who is actually injured?

Oh come on... if they penalised every single PTB where the boot didn't touch the ball, we'd be stopping the game every set of 6.

What happened with that? just saw him running away holding his face, thought his nose was bleeding...

1 out of 2 isnt bad. I said on another post earlier that i wanted Wigan to run up their highest points score against them and for Briers to get a flying elbow. Get in .

I also said I would mount the foot path just to run him over. Gutted

no, no that's fair, how about we just penalise the ptb's where feka is stood facing the corner flag, at least meet me halfway, since that's all feka's doing.
