A good game with some good try's after 3 games in a week and lots of bodies out.

What do 99% talk about, the ref.

Tierney deserves a ban! Dangerous play that couldve broken minichellos wrist

Could say the same about the Hull/Catalans match.

Hopefully. Then perhaps we'll get an Academy player in who can actually play FB.

Went to trip Michaels for his 2nd try as well

Not a result we looked like getting with Fonua, Griffin, Sneyd, Taylor, Watts, Bowden and Ellis all missing but the kids did us proud

Apart from the good game and try's then your right.

It's a pattern this season, every match fans moan about the ref instead of talking about the game and the positives

Stopping Cummins from being a commentator on the SKY games would be a start. His being thrrepromote them questioning every decision. In the NRL they just get on with it

Predictable. I was commenting on a game I watched on tv,maybe it seemed fairly reffed whilst being in ground watching? Hull deserved that win no doubt for effort . I thought Child was baffling for both teams last week and apparently was again for Leeds last night? Championship refereeing is frustrating also but in a different way,lots of laying on and inconsistencies if anything more so than superleague..I wrote my opinion of what I saw and stand by it . forget which team I follow and how much many rival fans dislike Wigan, that display from Bentham was very one sided but if it was in my teams favour I'd wouldn't care either .

Oi! only wigan are allowed to have loads of injuries and play their academy lads

All teams do have injuries but even I have to admit the situation at Wigan is beyond ridiculous. What are the backroom staff doing there? What was the point of re-signing Sam Tomkins? Played what 6 games last year and probably less this year. Perhaps it's time for wholesale changes there, starting with the coach. Lenagan cant be happy with the money that's been wasted.

Hahahaha current Super League champions and World Champions.

The likes of Gildart, Gelling, Bateman and Tomkins are due back this month. Should see our form improve.

Yep even as a Leeds fan I'll easily concede that Wigan have clearly had it worst than any other club this year by a clear margin. I know people hate the likes of Eddie banging on about injuries during games but the number of and importantly length of injuries Wigan have had has been so bad you can't dismiss it because you just think it's excuses. Someone mentioned Hull having several out but the difference is Wigan have had a load out for what seems like forever now.

Just in time to save us from relegation it seems.

I agree bentham should have penalised wigan far more and pick up some of their numerous forward passes

Absoultely. His claim last night that a pass which led to a try wasn't forward despite it travelling forward about 4 metres was laughable

Having being at the game, at the time at no point did it look like any of those penalties were not warranted. That Hulls discipline (for once this season) was good should not be an issue.

Having watched the game back today on sky, quite how Wigans first was allowed, given Williams pass started 2 yards before the half way line and finished 2 yards after it is beyond reason. Surely Bentham was favoring Wigan given that? (not a dig at you, but the muppets on this thread).

That Cummings stated "the ball travelled the first 3 yards flat and then drifted forward" either suggests he should pop down to his sponsor, doesn't know the rules or is literally a nine bob note.

Ball didn't come out of the hands forward. Simple.

Hull scored a try off a forward pass (that Farrell got sin-binned for) anyway.

And as I posted on the Wigan board, I'd love to know if there's ever been a 10-0 penalty count before. Also find it unbelievably hard to believe that Hull, the 2nd most penalised team in the league didn't commit one indescretion until 50-odd minutes.

well i've watched the first half back and the only surprise is that wigan weren't penalised for holding down more. many times a hull player found his front and wasn't allowed to play it quickly. regarding farrell, forward pass or not it was still dissent, and he might be lucky to avoid further action as he continued to gob off after the yellow card

wait until you watch the second half!



as for the post above, just because the ball didnt come out of his hands forward it still travelled forward! so that 1 decision each on a missed forward pass leading to a try for both teams

Your inability to understand the forward pass rule is duly noted.

Your inability to understand the Laws of Physics is also noted.

The ball can't magic itself forward without a force being applied.

If the player passing it was running forwards, the ball can be expected to travel forwards relative to him.

A ball can't travel backwards for 3 metres then decide to go forwards on it's own.

rule of passing the ball in rugby is pass it backwards or as flat, that pass didnt it travelled forward, that is the forward pass rule, not what the muppets on sky say about momentum, or which way his hands are positioned

What if you threw a ball backwards into a strong gust of wind and it blew forwards? Is that now classed as defying the laws of physics?

Even the very basics of physics are lost on 'Ull folk
