He's obviously been bollocked in the week. So he let the game flow this week.

Loving our rival fans crying tonight though.

Boo hoo.

After all the moaning they did last week when people dared question the performance of ganson... even though the majority agreed It didn't affect the result, they have no shame in complaining about how much bias Ganson apparently had towards Wigan today and that it was a clear conspiracy to give us the game!

good to see wire fans complaining, perhaps they arent as confident as they think they are? see you in the final cheshire losers

The standard of reffing throughout the playoffs has been appalling. In fact the entire play off series has been an embarrassement this season. Crowds, one sided games and reffing - pathetic.

Ganson had a nitemare in the wire hudds game,had a poor game tonight. The reffing at the leeds hull game was also utterly rubbish.

He let as much go each way to be fair. Eg that strip that was given as a knock on etc.

We win and the same old usual bitter wire fans are on moanung about the ref!! They were all glad to see Ganson get the game last week after he gifted them the game last week in the hope he would nail us for our 13 men in the tackle!!

Doesnt happen so he must be biased! Maybe we didnt slow the game up enough for Steve!! Anyway lets be honest anything other than a Catalans win at the anti wigan fools were always going to be in full voice!

Apparently some are getting off on the attendance!! Never mind let them get on with it! We looked fresh and has though we are still a major player!

Virtual Terrace has gone into meltdown.

Usual suspects frothing at the mouth. Beltin stuff !!

Read my response to you from the other thread! What Ferriol did and what Lockers has supposedly done are TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT things. No one else has mentioned Lockers knees so I'd guess you just an uneducated bitter, very poor troll.

Wigan were very good today and in no way did we need or get the help from Ganson. Our intensity in defence was what won us the game. In the 2nd half Catalan players were so tired they were in our defensive line for a number of tackles instead of tracking back. If we defend like that for the rest of the season we will be hard to beat, just got to work on our attack, which wasn't at its best.

Yet we still stuck 44 points on them!

I posted this on the Wire forum after their win against Huddersfield and I feel we were the same tonight, just not as good in attack as Warrington.

"Very impressed with the performance last night. Yes you can say the referee was poor (now I'm going to sound like Phil Clarke ) but that performance reminded me of Wigan last season, not a bad comparison considering we won the GF!

It was a very good performance and I don't think you are fully getting the plaudits it deserves. Yes Huddersfield we're poor but that was all down to Warrington and the intensity you came out with, not allowing them to play. This is reflected in the latter stages of the game when Huddersfield were knocking all on etc, all down to good work from Warrington in the 1st 20 minutes. As I said before similar to Wigan which cannot be a bad thing. You will find opposition fans putting the performance down to luck, reffing decision, Hudds not turning up, when in truth you were very good!"

was impressed by Ganson.

the amount of trying to milk penalties for lying on , by both sides, could have turned into "The Steve Ganson Show"........instead, he shouted at the player to stop moaning and get up and play the ball.......which made a flowing game.

only thing i wasnt impressed with, was him not having a word with the catalan player who went down holding his head like he had been hit by mike tyson after Coley slapped him ........looked like a wendy baller.......no place for it in Rugby League

Super game !!!!

I can just see you going berserk in your living room, as usual more interested in Wigan losing than your own team winning - hence you come rushing onto the Wigan board to post, instead of your own.

Hope it's capped your weekend nicely.

I always say you know the refs had a good game when you dont notice him - you either notice him because hes giving too many penalties or you notice him because hes ignoring everything.

I didnt even realise Ganson was reffing today untill I read this thread.

Difference is, in the Wire-Huddersfield, Ganson was whistle happy, but for both sides, as for some reason, it seemed as if he was trying to lay down some kind of marker. Ganson was poor today and did possibly influence the outcome of the game. He denied Catalans what was perfectly fine try in a crucial part of the game. How you can say that O'Laughlin didn't lead with the knee's is ridiculous, as he clearly came in late with the knee's. Yes, perhaps Catalans' penalty count would have been higher, but so would yours.

Are you seriously saying that Ganson was worth 44 points today?

Which 'perfectly' good try was denied? The winger well offside and within 10m, or the forward pass one?
