Aaron Rodgers would have been proud of the pass for Meli's try.

Eastmond must be shattered though. He has had no pre- season and has played all 80 mins after plaing only thirty mins in a friendly

Wow. Unlucky to miss that.

Pryce would have been the difference today. How lucky those Goons were last October.

For Saints plenty of work to do in attack. For Wigan they've got to sort the discipline out. They were a joke in the second half, the ref could have pinged them for something on virtually every tackle.

momentum rule.

Lomax was in front of the ball at all times.

Great game, glad I predicted a draw to my Wigan friends on FB, shame I didn't put money on it!

He'd have got his world title belt out for that!

Was he the guy doing the count for Edge's win over Ziggler?

Is this him?

That was Clay Matthews.

Google confirms you are correct.

Ahh sorry haven't watched wrestling for a long while!

The momentum rule that only exists for Stevo, there's no such bleedin thing. IIRC Cummins answered to that effect a couple of years ago,

The pass was 3 to 4 yards forward.

if the idea is that Millennium Magic is to start the season with a bang then the rugby on show might not be the best way to do it, not a lot of quality on show and a lot of penalties and mistakes in ball handling

another reason to move it back to May next year?

Was it though? It depends where you look. If you look at the floor it moves forward, but then again it's bound to given they are running. If it was forward it was a minor thing. The way Lomax held his body made it look convincing and the ref had no chance of spotting that at full speed. The touchie should probably have done but they are just there for decoration these days.

oops

It was a motivational aid. I saw Keiron Cunningham on his phone, he has Saddened!'s posts on RSS feed you see, so I knew the boys were looking for inspiration.

Not looked through the thread but is it just me that noticed Harrison Hansen wipe his arris after scoring his try? WTF was that all about? EDIT: It appears I wasn't the only one viewtopic.php?f=28&t=482288

probably been said but watched the first half of the cas game and could not believe that ref! Had he swallowed his whistle? Did he keep it up in the 2nd half? I can see why Salford where spewing when he reffed them out of the game ;ast week. Just re speed of play of balls, sorry but I don;t want to see ultra fast pob's where the game degenerates into dummy half run after dummy half run and penalties for offside or markers not square every set.

The ball must go about 3 metres forward, Meli has to reach out in front of himself to catch it.

I thought it was forward till I saw the replay and it deflects of the wigans defenders hand towards meli

Cummins said that the refs go on the direction of the passers hands. Looked forward on that basis but the camera angle wasnt clear

To all the moaners!!!

RL is by far and away "THE GREATEST GAME" no matter who or when it is being played.

You could have watched the "exciting" onion game or better still gone to or listened to a Mo & Ron Ball's game!!

RL supporters are the fortunate ones because we KNOW we have the superior product.

It is not flawless but it still leaves every other game behind in terms of excitement, skill, courage, emotion, athleticism and tenacity.

Radio 5's Sportsweek actually had a Rugby League feature that wasn't squeezed into the last thirty seconds of the show, during which Jounalist Patrick Collins said that whilst football is the worst run sport in this country, Rugby League is the best run.

OK, the "momentum rule" doest exist as such - but if you look at the direction of Lomax's hands it was a pass backwards, that drifted forwards. That is all that the referees take into account when judging on whether a pass is forward or not.

Watching the build up to today's games. Find my self agreeing with Steveo in regards to the onfield injury issue.

Clarky is an idiot "ooh well it doesn't look good for the sport to have players stretchered off". It'd look a damn site worse for the poor bugger who gets paralysed cos he's walked off the field rather than carried.
