Lol suzy you have to beat hull first....

The challenge was not as bad as some are saying and there was more in it than some are saying to get one game with no egp is a farce 2 game with an egp would have been a fair call

Great games are games where teams are treated equally and fairly, sadly ours isn't like that

That is the type of attitude that is bringing the sport down. Only Wigan must get to Wembley or Old Trafford. We can't risk someone different getting to a final.

what like the 62 -0 thrashing you recieved

What an absolutely shocking decision yet again by one of the most corrupt sporting organisations in the world.
The bloke is and has always been a cheating thug.He deserves a 3 match ban and a good beating at the hands of Monty Betham. Wigan scum.

Shocking decision... how can they possibly justify that sanction? Player welfare is secondary to superstar status.
They admit that it was reckless and that he had no regard for the safety of another player, which he emphasised by being more concerned about his punishment from the ref than the condition of the player he'd just flattened.
So, on RFL logic, if you've been a good boy for a long time you have a licence to do just about anything and then get let off lightly. I've never committed a crime (or at least never got caught). I'm a bit skint so I think I'll go out tomorrow and do an armed robbery. I'm sure the judiciary will let me off with a small fine and a short suspended sentence.
They were going to have a new round on "Question of Sport" where they show a clip of an offence and give the charge grade, then you have to guess the outcome. It was scrapped because no-one got any right.

Loads, pal. That's how I know we had 4 stands with roofs. Just goes to show how my club had a better ground than you men 20 years ago, but still took the opportunity to improve it and move into the 21st century.

Mate, what relevance is that result to the RFL needing the big draw teams at the big games?

Did you see the empty seats at last year due to Hull KR playing? Meanwhile us and Leeds sold OT out. That is what the sport needs to grow.

Ah, that's the reason behind the "fair" system, to give the "big" clubs an advantage, so that they can make it to all of the finals and ensure that they sell out.
It all looks much clearer now.

Never appreciated that you had to rely on help from the governing body, I thought you were the mighty Wigan



The measure on all of these things is, what outcome would you want/ expect if the situations were reversed and had it been Sam who had been taken out with the same type of high shot, would the Wigan fans be happy with the offending player getting 1 game ? I dont think so.

Empty seats at cup finals & internationals are due to fans not bothering anymore you don't see as many neutrals on challenge cup final day anymore. The RFL have made us a disunited sport which is disappointing as we are a small sport anyway.

Ignore the Wigan troll. He's displaying the Wigan arrogance because he knows it winds people up. They don't own their ground and have done nothing to acquire it. Like us, they are mere tenants, but with a better landlord.

As for the ban, unless I'm missing something, the earlier the dismissal, the longer we were without an interchange player, who was in fact on the pitch for about five minutes. So for the cheap shot that it was, we had to play for 75 minutes with only 3 substitutes. But it's only Wigan who suffered? Ah, I get it.

Sorry mate, I didn't realise Wigan R L took a chance and paid for and built their own stadium. Good on them, I wish money wasn't a problem for us.
