Saving our best games for teams that matter.

Good result for us.

Cocky pies have gone abit quiet in recent weeks.

joking aside i was very surprised at how leeds cut them to pieces.... the game should have been out of site.

like i said though.... good comeback from the pies.... its deffo a point gained for them in the scheme of things.

let's worry, if we need to, at the back-end of the seon
calm down, dear

Not that it matters at this stage of the season, but where are you getting 3 points from? If we win on Sunday we will be 4 points ahead of them.

did wigan peak last week against us?

It would appear so.

Haha my bad it's been a long day, i know it doesn't matter but we have that knack to lose some stupid games so to have a bit of breathing space if we do lose some daft games would be nice.

What, scraping a point? get a grip lad , champions would of got 2 points tonight

A tackle around the legs is a tackle around the legs. If the legs get in the wrong position then it is a real shame and if that causes injury then it is just one of those things. Lima was clearly not trying to hurt him. We dive in at the legs like that all the time.

exactly and its house every time you do it,

any coincidence that once he'd been penalised adn binned, not once did it happen again for the rest of the game?

Not scraping a point no. We proved it through the character and coming back against another champion side. We played shocking and still got a point. I thought we were worse than last week. Probably shows Wire are a much better side than Leeds.

LOL.

Oh god I could try to point out what's wrong with that combination of words but I just don't know where to begin!

kear commenting on radio 5 thought it was assault and lima should be banned for 12 games

As much as it hurts me to say it, Wigan were great the last ten and showed the character and commitment that made them last seasons grand final winners. Although to celebrate a draw like a GF win was a tad embrassing for a club of such stature. I prefer blowing teams out the water personally.

That's on par with you hoping Maguire has a career ending injury. Very low.

...eeeeehhh, they're a smashin' little club, Wigan

you are an idiot! a true idiot, i struggled for a while trying to find more appropriate words but could not! i'm sat here shaking my head at your callous disregard for all things fair and decent. i truly hope that the rugby gods poop on your head from a great height, again, your an idiot!

Calm down, SLIM. You normally save that kind of vitriol for that other Pie-eating helmet, Enicomb

..but it's typical of lame brains like 'oldmywinkie, trying to justify outandout thuggery

they are both spawned from the same gene pool!

don't be so bloody ridiculous that was a blatant attack to injuire the player not a normal tackle around the legs.....pity your not as quick to comment about wigan tactics...if behind throw a few punches and disrupt game in order to stop oppositions momentum (2nd week on run)
small minded bigot comes to mind....all in favor say aye

Couldn't agree more. As soon as Finch came on he was trying to disrupt Leeds momentum by pushing snd shoving and a few punches here and there, that was obviously the team talk he got off the coach before he went on. As for the 'tackle' it was an utter disgrace, Clarkson's back looked like it was about to break in two. Thank God there was no real injury to the lad. And final point, seems to me that Leeds, Saints and Wigan are on a bit of a par and we are are quite a few notches above

since when has a tackle around the legs become an offense? It does'nt matter that 2 players were already in the tackle, the point is Clarkson was still moving and a perfectly legitimate target.

Touch rugby anyone?

...come on. I'm all for rugby being a hard game, but if you're trying to legitimise that, last night, I'd suggest you had a little too much to drink last night, and you've just put vodka on your conflakes

Wigan have previous for this diving in with force at the attackers legs - remember the Tomkins Cunningham incident.

It is perfectly legal to tackle round the legs. That wasn't the offence, it was the contact was on or below the knee which is "dangerous contact" and could definitely cause serious injury. And with Lima having previous already this year, 3/4 games anyone?

It is typical Wigan tactics though, they did against FC at home, tried against us but we were far too good for their underhand tactics and again last night. Far from ruling the crustmunchers out but i think they've been sussed!
