Remember all the Wigan fans blaming Flower for losing a game after being sent off. Well obviously some humble pie needs to swallowed; 12 men does not automatically = defeat. IT NEVER HAS!

Farrell is the dumb one,every time he tackles some one he holds them down,if they play like that again there is nothing down for them,i know they got a point away from home BUT.

Does the enforcer role given Liam Farrell involve the giving away of penalties to the opposition?

If he'd have got his shoulder charge right he could have been sent off. Now thats the mark of an enforcer. He's probably disappointed he only made glancing contact.

I thought 12 men = loss It should end off!

16 up early doors against 12 for most of the game & to end up with draw (point given away)

If the game went on a few more mins Wids would have won!!
Its early doors I know but from that 2nd half performance we lack killer instinct & a bit of flair

Before I go if you get a chance watch No 8 Crosbies tackle on the Wids try scorer the one under the sticks at the end - considering what was at stake with the few mins left pause & play a recording of the I will stop this player at all costs attempt

A&L
(just like Belfast)

Enforcer is in a player and he does not have it in him.

Best enforcer in SL is Micky Mac and tbh he just looks the part. Faz never will be.

You cannot give someone an enforcer role.its in the DNA. IT DOES NOT HELP if the enforcer cannot punch his way out of a paper bag.The manager who suggests this is obviously in cloud cuckoo land, and on a wackingingly huge wage for being stupid and incompetent,to make it worse.

Can you find me the link to the interview where Shaun Wane suggested Liam Farrell become an enforcer?
I can't seem to find it.

16-0 up is a score that makes me cringe. I've lost count of the times Wigan blew a 16-0 lead!
