BBC just mentioned Tomkins "reaction", something really should be done.
You can't stick your fingers up on national television when kids will be watching the game, very unprofessional!

Bring them on

Despite all the strange decisions, 2 finger salutes etc etc, it was a cracking game. My congrats go to Wigan, commiserations to Leeds. But the focus is next Sunday afternoon, 12:45pm.

On Radio Manchester. Was getting interviewed and he said that Mike had done a fantastic job to win the CC, and that he'll have to do well to win it again. Suggesting that he's got the job.
Thoughts?

Still think Wigan will win the GF.

Are you a RL official by any chance?

It's just a shame that a well contested game between 2 very evenly matched sides was spoiled, & decided, by 2 wrong calls from the officials. Leeds should have got the ball at the scrum (And this was the worst decision as it was seen on the screen and there was plenty of time for the initial decision to be changed) and then the try that came from that possession which obviously should not have been given. Big big shame.

what about the spear tackle in the 1st half which should have been a leeds penalty. wigan scored on that set, and tomkins should be banned

Was it, if not, why not?

oh yeh, I know why. we werent there

They may have rode their luck today but they are deserved winners of the competition. They beat some very good teams to win it (and Leeds) so fair play to them.

A week to go so I think it will be. Only tickets left in the Wigan end.....

Leeds didn't sell their allocation out

Wigan do the double?......No.

They wobbled big time in the 2nd half under pressure, and Charnley/J.Tomkins is the weak link in the defensive line.

If Warrington make it to O.T they will win it

neither did Wigan from the look at it at the top tier

Could't care less

You've lost me?

Pie party next Sunday

They will be rubbing in knocking us out and winning it big time, less of them the better

Kids never swear. Ever.

Let them, they don't care about this devalued cup anyway, they've told us enough times.

I saw a few Wigan, Leeds and Saints fans at Lime Street station half an hour ago.

They got back quick.

Loads of Wigan at Piccadilly now.

Newt to be scared of.

Wigan were great in the half hour and then slipped away. They scored off a forward pass and a from a scrum that wasn't even their ball. Were better than Leeds, We had a great result beating Catalans in the heat without a few key players. We've had a week off, were fresh, we've had extra time to focus on the game this week, they only have a week if that, they'll be celebrating for half the week.

Bring them on, I hope we wipe the floor and I wouldn't be surprised if we do.

Meh, had a Saints supporting friend telling me how it didn't bode well for the future. I just made the point that we've beaten two better quality sides to get there, and if we are good enough that we can choke and still win at Wembley, then so be it.

He looks like a pub landlord.
