WHy are there only highlights on Wigan TV after the match when they were broadcasting live?

I couldn't watch live today but i was expecting to be able to watch as live later on, but they only had highlights. I realy can't understand why.

No idea why but IIRC it was the same v Leigh; the highlights arrives ASAP. The whole game 24 hours later.

No Concern From Wane

SHAUN Wane was unconcerned with Wigan’s defeat after they went down 32-16 at Salford yesterday.

His Warriors failed to score until the 67th minute when a try by Dom Manfredi sparked a late flurry of activity.

But Wane was quick to keep the result into context, pointing out his squad lacked a clutch of front-line stars. And the two defeats – at Salford and a week earlier at Leigh – have not bruised his confidence

However I hope Wigan refund anyone who made the effort to go down. There is supporting your team and having a club take the piss out of paying fans.

Since you are obviously not one who 'made the effort' perhaps you should keep your comments to yourself.
I went without 'effort' and had a bloody good day out. Great to get back into the swing and unlike many, I have taken many positives from these two games.
I reckon we will be OK.

no i wasn't its a sad state of affairs but instead of being able to go to a friendly i was planning on going to i had to change my plans last minute and go to work,

however while i watched the game on Wigan TV at the time i had posted my previous comment, the game had been in my Opinion atrocious (yes we are on a forum so i'm free to post my view and Comments even if you don't agree with them) i was happier after the last 15, but watching salford players walk through our line and players TWICE run into each other in a almost comical situation i still stand by my original comment.

it has no bearing on my opinion of how the season is going to go or if we are alright or not. just that if people pay to watch any Game, they deserve to see effort from the players.

I went yesterday and had a good day out with my boy. It was good to see live rugby again after what is a long winter without - albeit with such a mismatch team. I still think it should only be a fiver for everyone though. 15 quid for a "friendly" is steep imo.

:conf: What I saw today was the same RL I saw last season and seasons before. Why did you think it was different?

And yet in a previous thread you started the topic was NEW PLAY.New season same cp.

i understand the issue surrounding the 19s games etc but then charging £20 to get in is a bit rich for the lower grades

Salford thought it was a first team game hence their starting 13 therefore charged £20

Imagine that, a Super League club putting out their best squad in a warm up game, MK must want his head testing, after all it was ONLY a friendly and didn't matter

We'll see if it mattered when we play Catalan a week Friday. A banana skin needs to be avoided there!? I'm sure SW will have them practising how to if he sees it!?

It's a good job the Catalans game is at home.
Imagine how we'd feel going to their place, paying hundreds of pounds, after the Salford display and the International players hadn't had a warm up game.
