Hull vs Wigan

Post by Fraggle »

Well, sounds like a good start for us, but Hull are apparently getting back into it at 2-6 and Calderwood in the sin-bin. Wigan fans outsinging the Hull fans according to the Wigan-hating Dave Hatfield in Radio Manchester...

A shame I couldn't go, but work gets in the way sometimes :(

And now 2-8, we've got the converted-try advantage back again and time is counting down before we get back to 13. Wigan once again playing very well with a man disadvantage, we've certainly had the better of the first half so far (from the radio commentary...)

Or maybe not. Leuluai cock-up to drop the ball in goal, Raynor scored and we're back to 8-8 and it's all to play for again.

And now Hull are taking over, another score and we're suddenly 6 points behind. It's too early in the game to call this a comeback from Hull, but maybe we're trying to concede a bit so we can have a repeat of last week's heroics...?!

Penalty to Richards, and we go into the half time break at 14-10. I've now got to suffer 20 minutes of pointless football match reports whilst Stevo is probably spouting c**p on the telly...

They mentioned that on the radio, but it's Ganson and we know he rarely does forward passes. But holding down in that situation is always at least a yellow card so Calderwood can't really have any complaints.

Well, I missed most of that because of a student trying to set fire to their cooker, but the scoreline at the end was a bit tight. I hate listening to rugby on the radio, you have no idea about how strong the defence is to know how tight things really are.
