Here we go again

Fecking Achurch why are we still playing him atroicious cowardly attempt to tackle Williams there, going to cost us again.

Is Garbutt injured?. With three back rowers on the bench I would have rather seen Garbutt on the bench,Ferres on the pitch and Achurch in the stands lol.

thank goodness someone wasn't seriously injured off that canon ball tackling they were doing all night. something needs to be done about it.

they have done it since McGuire came in as coach. the RFL and referee's are spineless

Garbutt is injured, Achurch not even fit to be allowed to sit in he stand.

Rhinos Edge Tnriller Against Wounded Warriors After beating the league leaders Hull FC last weekend the Rhinos had another high-flyer in their sights as a Wigan Warriors side looking for a win to return to the top of the pile, visited Headingley. A win for the Rhinos could see them up to tenth, and off the bottom for the first time in weeks, as the bottom four clubs jostle for position and four home fixtures heading into the middle eights. Both sides were without their captains, McGuire injured for Leeds and O'Loughlin suspended for Wigan. Wigan have won both meeting so far this season and were clear favourites to make it three in a rematch of last seasons Grand Final. READ MORE ON THIS STORY...

Thought are effort was great tonight maybe dropped off in last ten but we showed are champion spirt and found a way to win we will smash middle 8's and be back at the top of super league next year. MOT!!!

back strain

thanks lads

Great win for you tonight. The cannonball tackle was shocking. The tackle was complete and Tautai's assault on the legs sought no other purpose but to injure the player. Just my opinion but you seem to be playing much better without McGuire.
Any one think Charnley will get a ban for making deliberate contact with the ref?

No chance he plays for Wigan !
1 game ban for a shocking high tackle last week
Is an absolute joke

In the interests of consistency he should get a few games. Both Bailey and Hock get 4 games I think and both were similar.

I thought both were an overreaction but it is what it is

I do like Tautai for Wigan though, he manages a nice blend of being , dumb and dirty. How he gets a game for them I don't know.

Good performance apart from losing the ball to put them back in the game. JJB top tackler with 40 odd followed by Segeyaro with about 36 as his influence grows. Did Moon get injured? Ref allowed too much wrestling and only penalized Charnley once for moving off the mark

Wouldn't get too exited, wigan have won it from 4th before and could do it again, the test of your bottle comes in a few weeks in the CC semi

Also, thought you guys were from 'humberside'

A couple of unsung heroes tonight

Brad Singleton put in a real enforcer performance, some big shots that put spoke Wigan players in their shell, although he does seem to play a little close to the edge (too much advice from Barrie Mac I expect

)

Also Keinhorst came up with a few defensive plays that probably saved tries, he always seems to be the first player tracking back if a break is made and for me should be playing (possibly starting) even when all are fit

The RFL are spineless, the MRP is a laughing stock and no doubt some one eyed pie eater will be on your case to defend it. Saying that though, Ablett was treading a fine line.

Segeyaro was fantastic, as were Ablett, Hall, Burrow and Watkins. The team had structure a pattern of play and were organised in defence. Even if they had lost at the end it was still a genuine performance. Structure and cohesion is so underrated. How much better did Watkins look defending as a centre - solid 1-1 hits and took his one chance in a tight match superbly.
In reality, Wigan had 9 first teamers out and have misfired badly on attack all season, but they have still been extremely difficult to beat. I don't know how Leeds have managed to dig a huge psychological pit of despair to live in since February but it seems some of the lads have decided they've had enough and have brought some positivity to the party.
Better late than never, but if it saves Mac's job then it will all be for nothing.

How very dare you!

In game I liked what Lilley is doing. I watched the highlights on the club sites and Lilley has 3 involvements in the build up to Watkins try. His last involvement puts Watkins into the gap. All 3 touches are quality. I bagged him early doors but as time has gone on I love what I see.

Great kid with loads of potential.

Lilley is far from the finished article but he has two great traits. He has lots of confidence in himself, almost a swagger about him for one so young and isn't afraid of trying things or the failure that may bring. The plenty of game time and the testing circumstances of this year should stand him in good stead for the future.

JJB 43 and Segeyaro 40 tackles. Watkins back to form and big game from Ablett with pack solid except Achurch. Both half backs involved giving more options on attack and sound defense.

He was poor against Hull, but really stepped up last night. Hope we keep giving him the game time

Lilley will have poor games, like everyone else. As a youngster probably a few more. But he's playing in a pressure position and will surely be getting lots of feedback and backing from the people behind the scenes. Just a shame some people like to write youngsters off if they don't tear it up week after week
