    What is the point of the ref sending a video decision as a try if the VR ignores it. The ball never left the ground which is the definition of a double movement.

    Crazy sport.

    As for the Farge naysayers maybe he needs a run at one position before you throw him on the rubbish heap.

    We take players from Australia thinking they are the dogs bo**ocks. But the aussie game is years behind ours. Greg bird is terry newton, minus the talent. And newton died 8 yrs ago!!

    Phil Clarke has embarrassed himself in that first 40, we all know he's a Wiganer and won't want us to win but for a summariser he's not given a hint of impartiality. He's got excited about a few things Catalan but Fages steps his way through finishes off a great move and not a peep...his disappointment oozed out of the screen...

    The biggest difference is the forwards are up for it, they've had weeks of saying they've been bullied, they're not big enough or strong enough, that's give far more space for our backs to move, but we're beating them in the middle when we've got the ball

    I’m not sure that is the definition of a double movement. Otherwise you’d be able to shove the ball forward along the ground after being stopped.

    Johnny Lomax is the best full back in our club.

    Apart from Amor they’ve all been good. Douglas has tried to step it up but his runs have been fairly impactless again.

    Then you go onto the slow ass ball from Knowles

    Lomax looking good at full back. The two tries ruled out for obstruction were farcical. Casty clearly tries to move away from Wilkin and cops a high shot in the process. Try chalked off. Zeb runs a normal line and Bird throws himself to the floor football style. Try chalked off. The obstruction rule is a joke.

    Also, they're dirty •••••••s. That hit on Smith was shocking.

    It happens a couple of times every single game, yet you still refuse to criticise him.

    Impressed with Smith’s defence so far. He’s hitting above his weight.

    Daft offload from Ashworth that. There’s been some good stuff but still some really frustrating things.

    It’s more of the same brainless stuff.

    Playing against a side like this you have to be prepared to ride out some difficult sets in your own 20 where you’re not making ground. It’s guaranteed to happen, and when it happens you need to keep calm, get through the set, kick deep, chase hard and gradually get back into the game.

    When we get in that situation, though, we panic and try to fix it with offloads and low percentage plays.

    How good is Lomax seriously. I have said he’s been outstanding all year but this squad no matter what the result stays like this unless Roby is fit. Liking the look of Smith though. If Robys fit then Douglas comes out that 17.

    Barba can sit and wait in stands now in case anyone gets injured

    Look out on our feet here. I imagine it comes from the coaching staff but why do we never kick to touch?

    Trying to score on every play. Costello either isn’t a centre or isn’t good enough.

    this team has far to many brain farts. We have been dominated again in this second half.

    At the risk of sounding like a broken record, it’s a side that’s crying out for an experienced/composed decision maker in the halves. We’re always thinking in the moment.

    Richardson’s having another stinker and this teams failure to recognise when a play isn’t on is worrying.

    Fages in two minds. This is what makes him not fit for a half back. His decision making is so poor
