The topic under discussion concerns " penalties " The Referee's decision was provoked by the infringement of the rules of the game. Silmple! Anyway I've spouted enough and to be honest with you the only static ( the final score is the only one that interests me.We have a good team and coaches so I'm going to finish my not very moot (I hope 😀) assertion 👍 🍷Cheers!
I'm afraid it is moot, mate, as you've introduced a straw man argument. I never claimed that penalties weren't provoked.

It had to be spoken about at some point. Peet sounds like he's chosen his words very carefully because he clearly thinks this has been an issue throughout his tenure and not just this season.

I've got the monk in this season in terms of what we've received and last season it was about us losing penalty counts. In the weekly rounds I think we lost about 20 of the counts last year. In fairness I've not looked at that this season but we've probably lost them all.

Of course they do. Seen many reports in newspapers re Forum sites some near enough word for word 😂
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Well I’m not one!

I’m told plenty things but don’t always reveal them on here or anywhere else.

Possibly, you'd probably be daft not to as a journo. I think I read with this one that Peet himself commented that we'd had no six agains on Good Friday and they've then had a look at our record on the back of it. They're lucky in some ways the refs that there is such a lack of stats to look at because in football you can see anything and everything. Some players would also be in the same boat in terms of what they receive because you'd imagine some at the top of that sort of list may be doing a bit of play acting.

Watching today's game v Hull. Now I'm not a ref watcher (or hater), and I don't often comment on referees, but after the recent discussion and stats, I notice that we're on the wrong side of the penalty count yet again.
I wonder if the fact that so many "top" refs are from Wigan makes them subconsciously less likely to award us penalties?

Its a strange one morley and i get your point.My mother rang me at half time absolutely fuming at how every time wigan score its video ref and never when its the opposition.The six again is a different baby as its not how many are given but when its given.Not a fan of the six again tbh as its flawed and is encouraging defences to purposely give six again on the first two tackles.I know its not loved in the nrl also
IF YOU STRIKE ME DOWN I WILL BECOME MORE POWERFUL THAN YOU CAN POSSIBLY IMAGINE
