If anything that tackle sparked the Warriors into life. They were incensed, which resulted in the absolute hammering they then proceeded to hand out to the Bulls.

And quite right too. Leave the bent judiciary to their own weird devices.

Let justice be done the old-fashioned way.

Aye. It looked to me like we were just happy to do enough to win before that tackle.

It was pretty clear after it though that we were determined to give the Bulls a kicking. I think Sam was instrumental for half the tries scored after that incident. Pretty amusing from where I was sat.

Not unrelated to this, there was a funny incident over on TotalRL, when some complete tw)t opened his live match commentary half an hour into the game with: "Is Sam Tomkins playing tonight?"

I love it when a smart gets smacked. Especially in public.

You know i've been given free tickets to go and watch Leeds at the shed and im more than sure Wigin also give away free tickets!



No they gave away free tickets to school kids (you know the future of the game) but they could only be used if the acompanied by a paying adult! A good financial policy if you ask me becouse those kids also bought team shirts and merchandise! Something im sure again Wigin have done

Ahh your talking about headingley, that's about 7 miles away!

Think a few of you may be being a bit harsh on Sykes and the Bradford fans.

I didn't cheer, at full speed I thought he'd be in the bin but slowed down it wasn't that bad, but definitely at least a penalty.

Could I please have an honest answer, if it was on one of your big fellas like Lima or Lockers would there be as much slating? I think because he's your star player there's more people jumping to the defence of Sam (rightly so, every team in the world would love him in their side) but I haven't seen a malicious side to Sykes' game before so it would surprise me if it started now.

You may be right about Sykes, but high shots on Sam Tomkins are becoming quite the norm in Super League these days, and Wigan fans are understandably getting a bit fed up with it.

The idea of someone putting a high shot on Lima or Lockers is frankly laughable - given that, unlike Sam, those two would turn around and deck the perpetrator, it tends not to happen.

Indeed. Sykes was lucky Joel wasn't on the pitch. So are we to be honest 'cos he'd probably have got himself banned for the final.

Said the same to my lad at the time . Think Joel would have got himself in big trouble had he been on the park at the time .

Good point cruncher.

I'd be a bit peed off too if our star player was a headsot target.

Would you be more peed if a comment was made then that happens straight away?

I dont know what was said but i'd bet it was along the lines of 'take his head off'
