Farell kicked the ball away. He used the captain challenge way too soon. When Keirghan should have stopped him. Farrell's bin would have been reversed and a pen given to us.

2nd think it's contact with the head would have been red but had mitigation

Heatshot? Seriously granted I was in the ground and could only see the replay on the screen but I didn't see a headset.
These are two reasons not to trust people.

Can someone explain why we wasted our challenge when it was a clear strip. Then hey presto clear penalty try and no challenge left. Idiotic. Still hopefully a monkey off our back

Yep. If Faz's IQ was 10 points higher, we would have won that game.

I just felt Wigan were playing the percentages too much.

Very little creativity, just playing field position.

Then again what do I know?

I hate to say it and will take some flack but every team knows Farrell steps inside and then turns and backs into a tackle. Maybe a good time to buy a replacement, he has been a great player but every player has his day .

Thought we already got his replacement in Sam Walters.

Add to that Field being greedy and turning inside when there was no one in front of either Wardle or Marshall on his outside 25 yards was it from the tryline.
Boo hiss but at least we do not have to defend our 100% home record all season.

We should gave drop goaded at 78 minutes or just attempted it the last play in golden point.

Credit to leigh they played well nothing in that game until golden point.

Yes that was a possible try, the Faz obstruction another.

Still the main issue for me was the lack of game awareness. Just sticking to the game plan, ALL.THE.TIME.

May well work over the season.

Didn't tonight.
