different if it was a widnes player and u won the game though yer?

I went as my team were not playing today.

The team' your coach picked could and should have won' especially after your quick 18 points in the opening 10 minutes of the second half.

After that poor handling tackling and decision making by various players cost you.

Widnes played surprisingly well but without giving offence to them I doubt they will win many more this season.

If my uncle was a woman, he'd have been my Aunt.

Stuff happens. We were outgunned today by a very determined Widnes side after our coach showed a lack of respect to them by fielding kids, 3 of which were making debut. You may have just plastered on Widnes' dressing room wall 'Wigan fink ur , innit'. Complete nonsense.

A couple of their tries looked dubious, yes, but you tend to get the rub of the green when you're at home, i'm sure what goes around will more than likely come around later in the year, and we certainly won't be complaining.

All in all, silly coaching, and we need to build that momentum again for the Wire game, from scratch.

Just the start son just the start
Hull will be a loss im thinking but london match who knows.
O and as it goes,No offence but i think salfaud will start to struggle

Whilst all this whining is going on, is Goulding ok?

By the same count, the game should've stopped after Luaki flattened Cahill off the ball and left him struggling to breathe and spitting blood. He should've been put on report there and then and maybe he wouldn't have smashed another 2 Widnes players around the same time.

Did the game stop when Charnley caught Flynn with the elbow in the first half?

If I'm honest, Wigan are one of my 'pet sides' but they were putting a lot of cheap stuff about today

My main point being that ALL games should have video referees, or none at all because of these blatant inconsistencies! When a game is televised, the refs use the big screen for almost every try these days scrutinising absolutely everything looking for any reason to disallow the try. Then you get games like today, a blatant obstruction and two blatant knock ons. Had there been a video ref, then they would not have stood. It's a massive flaw, one that has been doing my head in for years. Especially when every single home game Catalans played in the past had a video ref as every home game of theirs was televised... As I said, it should be every game, or none at all.

A couple of your trys looked dubious.
All in all was a shock even to us widnes fans.
No problem with u beating wire please please do
Bet u will never play under strengh again so maybe lesson well learned

Didn't see what happened in that incident.... But wasn't Flynn already off the pitch?........

The incidents you refer to will be looked at and dealt with. However we are still trying to find the official ruling on the head injury. The game was stopped in the HKR v Bradford game on Saturday for something that appeared far less serious and Widnes did score in the position that Goulding would have been defending.

There was NO doubt that Goulding was unconscious.

Think of it this way... Wigan have made a lot of people very happy today, and that cant be a bad thing.

As ive said when Goulding went down flynn had broken through run 60 meters up field.
So bye then the play was up the other end of the ipitch.
With every other player including the ref,exept Goulding.
Think the ref was just running with the flynn break.
His life was not in danger and your medical staff was on by then anyway wernt they
Its nothing to do with us scoring a try of the back of that run is it why you are all moaning about that injury
And you wanted the game stopping and bringing back 60 meters,i mean its not like the was players running past the lad else it would have been stopped.
Is he ok by the way

Yes, Paddy was off the pitch but the game didn't stop and it was a head injury which appeared to be caused by Charnley's elbow (it could have been a mistimed hand off) so we were down until Paddy had been treated.



Can't see anything being reviewed TBH as Luaki was spoken to but he was out to do somebody.

I've had one or two celebratory shandy's since the game so can't remember if you scored when Cahill was struggling after Luaki hit him but what I suppose I'm getting at is if you stop the game for a head injury, then you stop it for all head injuries. Cahill looked in pretty bad way for a spell after the incident and could've been more seriously hurt if you'd chosen to take the game to him while he was struggling - hence stopping the game for treatment to all head injuries.

Whilst I agree in principle, it's no use crying about it. It's not gonna happen any time soon. I'm pretty sure one of your tries was dubious as a Widnes player was obstructed when Finch, I think, made a break on the halfway line.

Anyway, it all adds up the reason why this is TGG .

Fair enough guess theres arguments for both sides.
I just thought it all happend so quick that Goulding injury was missed by the ref at the time of the break.
Still cant bellive we won,my 8 year ols son is in over the moon.
Is goulding ok ?
