[quote="headhunter":lnxdgxk2]Union people are idiots. They almost universally accept that league is a better, faster game played by better athletes, yet for some reason they continue to disregard and belittle it. That game is tedious as hell from start to finish. If he'd ever played or even bothered to give more than a fleeting chance to league he would realise that the game is far more 'technical' than Union ever could be. Booting the ball into touch, scrummaging and forming rucks and mauls aren't areas that involve any skill, technique or mental capacity whatsoever. These are clumsy, outdated facets of the game that are also extremely uninteresting to watch and thus have to be defended in some way by people who are too prejudiced to see the truth.[/quote:lnxdgxk2]: |

| Seriously?!
How many stewards do you need for a 20s game? never seen more than half a dozen myself....can't see it being so difficult?

| Final score Wigan 72 - Salford 16
Gelling ran riot.
Shame for Prescott. Fielden was on the touchline waiting to come on for his second spell (to replace Prescott)
Prescott took his last drive in and went down in the tackle. He then had to be helped off the field by two people, it appeared to be an injury to his left leg / knee.

| Gelling was sensational. The best player on the field by a mile. He looks so much more comfortable at centre and Goulding and Carmont should be looking over their shoulders for the last few games this season (not during games obviously).
Powell looks to be getting back to fitness which is good, put in a lovely Finch-like pass with Lloyd making a Hock style line break.
Greg Burke impressed me with his defence. He must have been the top tackler and really gets stuck in.
Thornley was hit and miss. He made a good break at one point and completely messed it by failing to pass to his winger but he defended well and made up for it with a 70 metre try late on.
Prescott looked like he was easily on course to make the side against Salford and was doing well as you'd expect and then the inevitable happened. If he's still playing in two years time I'll be amazed.
Fielden looked like he enjoyed himself out there and I wouldn't mind seeing him make the bench against Salford. He ran well, tackled well and while he clearly wasn't fully fit he should do well for a short stint.
Murphy going off injured was unfortunate as he started the game very well and deserved to score after an 80 metre effort but was caught by the very quick Dan Brotherton which is no shame. Russell moved to fullback but for me there's no doubt who the better of the two is. Russell just doesn't look comfortable, failed to take a simple catch to prevent a 40/20 and fumbled the ball near his own line and nearly conceded a try.
I also thought Ben Flower was pretty anonymous in his first spell and I can't remember seeing him return to the field later on.

| It'll be interesting to see who'll be the 4th prop against Salford now.
Prescott looks to be out, Flower needs a run in the 20's until I'm convinced he's over his hamstring trouble, Crosby is up for a ban after fighting for South Wales at the weekend and surely it's too soon for Fielden.

| Spencer or Burke could play prop. I'd certainly like to see Burke given a go as he looks very good defensively and loves to tackle. Has been playing second row recently but can play prop too.
Keiron Harrison also had a good game tonight but he's just too small to play at Super League level.
I reckon Fielden could be in with a shout though, although Wane will probably play Tuson at prop.

Was Sean Long drunk? On Jack Dearden's show he said that the 1/2 time score was close (22 - 20?) and that Salford were going well.

| I think there was only 12 points in it at half time. Half time score was something like 22-10.
