I'll see your Offside and raise you a missed obstruction two tackles before Wigan s first score, a pass flung backwards called forwards, a knock on penalised as interference, several high shots and a cameo for the best milking of a penalty by o loughlin by literally dropping the ball on LMS'S head.

I can't believe (some) Wigan fans are blaming the ref. You had all the possession. You played the better rugby.

If you can't win under such circumstances you really only have yourselves to blame.

Not blaming the ref at all. This thread was about clarification of the offside rule. Now run along back to your own forum. Maybe someone there will be interested in your posts.

Post-match derby debates are what the Internet was made for. Learn to be a little more tolerant.

Yes I am all for debate but if you want to talk about something else then start a new thread instead of hijacking another one.

Not sure about the first one, I'll have to watch it again, but on the forward pass and interference you are dead wrong. You simply cannot deny that pass was forward, it was as clear as day on the replay. Roby got penalised for having his hand in at the ptb, again if you watch the replay it's clear as day, his hand is on the ball. Lockers definitely milked that penalty but I don't blame him one bit. The onus is on LMS to clear the ruck, Lockers doesn't have to suffer a slow and awkward ptb/pass by maneuvering round him when he can just as well take a penalty. Only LMS is to blame for that.

Yeah, but in your case only when Saints have won.

Percival being more offside than I can recall a player being this season?

As for the forward pass. Passed it behind the line, caught it a few metres in front. But it went backwards Sir honest. Momentum only does so much.

What do you suggest for the title? "Whinging pie-eaters haven't a leg to stand on?" or "Poor summer yields bumper harvest of soured grapes at DW central"?

Besides. The opening question has been answered. Can't hijack a plane which has landed.

If Walsh wasn't then LMS certainly was .

It was a fairly easy decision for the video ref, Turner, Roby, Masoe. Greenwood were in an offside decision but didn't follow the kick. Walsh and LMS left foot behind the line when Wilkin kicks on the line, if Wilkin delayed the kick by half a second the try would have been chalked off.
