Singleton and Partington are too similar for me. They’re both full of aggression and looking to put big shots on but neither make a lot of ground and I think their spells on the field shouldn’t overlap. I’d like to see Bullock or Havard start alongside Singleton and Partington to then add energy from the bench.

I know, around 1700 according to BBC GMR. I have been a ST holder since my first one cost a £1, but with the covid stadia restrictions and the fact that we probably won't win a game, I was content just to listen to us lose on the radio. Also with our lovely owner behaving like some Cuban dictator, right now I'm not too bothered with the fact we'll be back in the championship next season. Sounded like Wigan weren't at their best tonight, but 2nd half you didn't give us a 'a sniff' when it mattered, only near the end did we get near your try line. Not too many teams are 'firing on all cylinders' at the moment, but you are doing much better than big spending Warrington are.

We'll soon see.

Barely left his foot... how did the TJs miss this?

One of the TJs was Warren Turley, Younger brother of Leigh legend Neil.

Neil was a wigan fan growing up

I still say you can't tell unless you freeze it right on his foot. There was a try in the NRL at the weekend (can't remember who), very similar, and I thought, that's offside surely. I re-wound and replayed it 3 or 4 times before I managed to freeze the ball on his foot, and sure enough, he was level.

I guess this comes back to the point about having -proper' cameras at every game.

I froze it before it hit his foot earlier and he was just in front even at that point.

It matters little now but he was offside without any shadow of a doubt for me.

Tommy Makinson was a Wigan fan. As was Sean Long. Neither of them would give us the steam of their pee now.

bet they would

It's almost as though the touch judges can't freeze time to make judgements easy like you have there

You're right. Players never end up supporting clubs they have played for above who they supported as a kid especially when that club rejected them or treated them like s***. That never happens.

Why not? What are they even there for if they can't do that?

Besides the fact it's pretty bloody difficult to get in line with him after the break, they actually look onside if we pause it on the boot rather than when the ball has already gone.

The one last night wasn’t a break and the TJs had enough scope to see the offside player. What’s your point? That TJs make glaring mistakes? In which case I agree.

Apologies, I couldn't watch the game last night due to other rugby commitments. Mistakenly watched the highlights from earlier in the season.



I've seen the right one now, agree that he is offside. It's still a lot easier judging a freeze frame than running around continuously making split second decisions. There is a lot to watch on kicks in particular.

Not quite the same theme. but I know a few rugby players from Leigh who never played for the club (for whatever reason) that don't support the Centurions, but might go to watch the odd game. Ian Sanderson and his brother Mark, Cliff Eccles, Mark Hudspith, and I don't know him but don't think Scott Naylor ever bothered when he wasn't playing/coaching.

Oh yeah, players will still support the side they always have in most cases but there is the odd case when that changes. More so in football with the likes of Carragher, Peter Reid, Ian Rush, but when players are treated a certain way by a club their loyalties can change.

Stu Littler was rejected by Wigan and treated like s*** by them as a kid went on to captain Salford and Leigh and still supports Wigan

Good for him.

Lived opposite me in Billinge when he was a boy. His brother is still a Wigan season ticket holder.

Wait till I see him....the rather large man !

Do you actually play the violin? Or are you looking for an honorary membership to the dark side.

I had a go once, couldn't get the hang of it. Don't understand the reason for your latter comment, my stepfather (don't like that word) is a Wigan fan, and he will confirm to you that in no way shape or form do I require a membership of any Wigan Warriors association.
