| Quote: FIL "Yep...exactly what I said at the time, so how did we get the re-start ???
The commentators said that it was because Bibby was tackled in-goal, so he clearly stole the ball from Walker in a two man tackle with Hardaker over the line, so how is that not a penalty try
As a defender can steal the ball in the act of saving a try. The handover was the correct call.

| Quote: Manuel "You are embarrassing yourself Mopsey. Easy to see why. You seem bitter and twisted that the team showed spirit!'" I’m fine but thanks for your concern, the reason why we’ve played well against Wigan twice is that we have managed to get parity with there young forwards. I simply don’t accept mediocrity like most people 5 from 28 is simply unacceptable

| It’s the spine that defines any attack and ours isn’t good enough imo. Walker hasn’t done a thing since coming from London, Hampshire & Jowitt are streets ahead. I’m not jumping on Walker as he seems low on confidence but the fullback role is key to any attack, especially when you’ve got a left edge of TJ and Bill. Imagine them on the outside of French for example.
It certainly wasn’t the forwards who lost the game tonight, they matched Wigan if not bettered.
All in all a decent performance and one we could have won.

Then we'll keep losing.
It's either we find the money to sack him, or we stick with him and end up relegated at the end of next season, then there's no money for anyone.

| Quote: Teltry "Try saver from Johnstone is what we expect there's more people on here slagged him off regarding his defence. I spoke to at least 5 players this week who are really dismayed with the attitude of some fans towards Chester. I'm starting to think this website is a anti Wakefield forum for gods sake give credit where its due in such difficult times. Wakefield would have beaten the majority of teams tonight with that effort.'"
They absolutely would not have beaten the majority of teams with that performance tonight

Thanks SC, so you can steal the ball in the act of saving a try, with two in the tackle.?

Yeah, if stolen in the act of scoring the ball should be handed back to the attacker 10 meters out, unless it was the last tackle. It’s treated the same as being held up, and matters not whether there is more than one defender.

| As much as I hate Phil Clarke he was spot on with the Walker assessment.

| We went toe -to - toe with one of the best teams in the league and people still aren’t happy. Jesus. Most people on here expected Wigan to thump us.
A few stand outs for me. One, Miller. Even though we lost that was his best game this year for me. Two, I think Crowther and Wood really compliment each other at 9. The timing of the pass for Arona’s try was spot on.
But we really do need to stop standing so flat at the opposition line.

| Enjoyed the game tonight. The team on the field is not far off being competitive. Its difficult for Chester as he can never field the same team two games running however Jowitt needs to be first choice full back. We need an organising half back to partner Miller and a replacement for Kopczac who can break a tackle . The three quarters can match any in the league but without a half back to dictate the plays they are less effective. Very impressed with BJB since he came back . Lynne is making some good yards. Tupou had his best game of the season tonight and Pitts Westerman and Tanganoa have been our most consistent performers.

Miller dictated tonight. He was superb. We have weak links in the forwards. This is our issue most of all
