Amazes me how fans really believe that only Wigan have 3 in the tackle, only Wigan tackle round the legs but at the same time have players who only tackle round the head!!
Hull have run us close both times this season, both times by coming out and being strong and physical. But yet rolled over and died against Leeds twice in 2 weeks. If Hull played with the intensity and heart shown last night maybe they wouldnt be sat in 8th looking over their shoulder!
On a side note that Gleeson as proved a quality signing!!'"
Wigan just do what the Storm do, wrestle teams to death. Almost every tackle they could be penalised but referee's are weak.

| I carried out a study, and the results shown that Wigan on average get 3.7 seconds longer than any other team in Sl to hold down before conceding a penalty, its outrageous.
But what can you do.

Don't worry, we know they cheat so anything they win is meaningless

| Hull were the authors of their own downfall last night.
A poor floated pass that Richards picked off to go 90 mtrs.
Turner only yards off his own try line passing the ball to no one but Finch.
Phelps going to ground when facing a bouncing ball. That's why he's playing for Hull FC and not Wigan!
That's 16 points through Hull FC's mistakes.
As if there's anything wrong with three man tackles.
The Roos in 1982 were the first to exploit this type of defence when they really showed us how to play Rugby League. Here in England we still haven't caught up yet.
Coley's tackle on Solomona was not thrird man in but second.
Following that game it was two Wire players who had warnings from the RFL discip about their tackling technique.
Wigan showed why they are topping the league at the moment because they can score tries from close range as well as long distance which most other teams can't!

Meaningless.............a word normally used to describe Hull FCs season.

If you put same energy into following your team as you do obsessing about Wigan you might enjoy rugby a bit more!!

They are actually allowed to tackle him!!!....Also when he goes whining to their refs they probably tell him to shut up and get on with it....I have never seen a player who is so protected by the refs, it is actually embarrassing to watch.

You mean they can tackle him unlike most players over here! And this whining he does is it any different to any other players in SL?
Im suprised there is trouble when you play Wire you should all get on well really!

I'd have to disagree. I've never seen a player try to ref the game like he does - he makes Lee Briers look positively reserved. Can't stand him myself. Good player but an unbearable t[iw[/iat with it.

Of course it was . . . . . . . . the year after Saints had won the double.

Yes yes, it's a conspiracy by the RFL.
One thing I noticed watching on sky instead of at the game is how many of our tackles are classed as dominant, thereby giving us, perfectly legitimately extra seconds at the ruck. The crowd don't know it's been called though so it's easy to see why they're on the ref's back.
