He's just scored, but that aside, this is Gelling's best game for Wigan.

What a game this is! I'm hurting and knackered just watching it. No idea who is going to win with just over 15 minutes to go.

Great game, and a shame Warrington just had little bit more cutting edge at the end. Would like to see that as the Grand Final - but with O'Loughlin, McIllorum and Green back in the side.
I'm at the game on Friday against Cas, and if Wigan play at that level on Friday they'll win comfortably.

I thought the defences were excellent but there was a lack of attacking flair from both sides.

Looks like Hull KR's Dobson is going to the NRL with Newcastle and rumour is that Salford have signed Francis Meli to go along with Adrian Morley.
Watched State of Origin 2 from Australia on Wednesday and Queensland dominated it right from the kick off, so game 3 will be the decider. Overreaction from the refs during this one where they sinbinned 4 players for a minor dust up where about a sum total of 2 punches were thrown.

Lots of over-zealous reffing this season here and in the NRL. It used to be a sin-bin for a fight, and red cards for those who join late or thrown punches at a player who is held, etc. Now it seems that any fighting is being jumped on, and not sure it's a good thing for the game.
Nowt up with a bit of biff!

I think those reffing the game have never played it. Generally the NRL had it about right but this week was a big overreaction to what Gallen did (and got away with) in origin 1. We all love a bit of biff but I agree there should be boundaries. However the reffing in the UK has been pathetic for a while now with no consistency. The instigator should be punished as should guys running in from miles away, but sending a guy for 10 minutes for being punched seems redic in the extreme

enjoyed Hull vs Wakey last night, 26-27 with plenty of action. Thought the ref did really well, gave alot of tries without bothering to look at video ref everytime.

i also enjoyed the game, really showed some heart in the second half - especially Kirmond and Amor who looked like they were injured and ready to go off a couple of times.
although the first half was a competition to see who could be the dumbest team, Hull edged it, just.

Wigan playing as well as they did last week. Missing O'Loughlin and Sam Tomkins again - and doesn't seem the rest can perform without them.

Bad isn't good, until it gets worse. 18-4 down with about 20 minutes to go, and not looking likely to get back into the game at all. |

Wow - Wigan have nicked it in the last minute! Woeful except for the last 20 minutes, but didn't deserve the win. Lucky.

Unlucky for Leeds there. A draw would have been a fair result.
