Considering our recent record against the Dragons, it's an excellent result. As a long-term advocate of expansion, I'm delighted to see them doing so well, they've certainly proven wrong the nay-sayers who expected them to be like PSG all those years ago, but I have been frustrated by our inability to get results against them for a very long time! So a draw tonight is really good, and with Warrington losing we've closed the gap slightly on 4th place as well.

hehe, went offline to 'concentrate' listening to it, had to put up with Saints Wire damn Longy I even said to Danielle thats what'll happen.
Pleased with our result we have the grit... guys dont forget Catalans are 3rd so a brilliant result for Wigan coming from 16-4 down. Lucky also (Bosc missing)... ave to see SL SHOW about Colbons 'disallowed' try, cant get much from updates but 1 point is good for us.
Good for Wigan & Cats

I watched Wire v Saints. Briers went off injured. Wire came back got a lead. They then tried to be clever and brought Briers back on and it went pearshaped.
The Gilmour try is a funny one. His elbow was grounded one side of Morley and as far as I understand the rules you only have to have some contact with the ball carriers for the tackle to be complete.

Must say I thought it should have been wiped off for a double movement.
We have seen tries denied that were exactly the same as Gilmour's.
PS: I was impressed with Silverwood.

Personally I was not. Refused to award penalties when the ball was knocked on and players in front of the ball carrier then kicked or picked the ball up. Offside penalty rather than the scrums he kept awarding.
