Connor head high tackle and he is sin binned. Farrell does the same and is only penalised.
Hull warned for offside at successive plays and a penalty. Wigan warned for markers not square at successive plays and only six again.
Child gave six again to Wigan on a couple of occasions only after Wigan players exaggeratedly complained.
Wigan consistently - and I’m not just talking about this game - move off the mark when playing the ball and the referee penalises the defending side for pushing them back.
Even the commentators referred to how offside Wigan were at the end but no action by the referee
More than any other team Wigan have learnt how to play referees.
Overall a good performance from Hull considering the above.
So Clubb’s penalty was reduced as whatever was said was “in the heat of the moment”. Don’t understand that. What had gone on? He was playing rugby; it’s his job.
With regard to Farrell’s head high tackle some people suggest there was no comparison with Connor’s tackle. What are they suggesting? That he executed it with such precision that he knew no damage would be done. The penalty should be for the act, not the outcome.
Quote="His Bobness"I think the final score flattered Hull and expect Wigan to win again next week.
It won't matter if Reynolds does or doesn't play your best chance of scoring will as ever be Sneyd's precision diagonal kicks to the wing and of course his brilliant goalkicking.'"
