Re: Grand Final 21-man squad
Ultimately this game, this SEASON, comes down to whether you want to accept that IF a player "goes down", and there is a break in play, that the referee can use that time to examine video plays.
If you accept this then maybe Wigan deserved to lose
If you do not, then Wigan would be winners.
End.
That's a pretty big "if" in my opinion.

We have seen the best game of rugby this year and you want the coach gone if anything it will give him a new contract.The kick at goal did not come from Lam.

Agreed. Thought he was a machine in defence.CheshireWarrior wrote:French was superb tonight! For me, I've always thought Willie Isa was 'a good squad player' at best but, I thought he was immense tonight. Worked extremely hard consistently IMO.Firestarter wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 10:24 pmi thought french was momWigan_forever1985 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 10:23 pm Like has been said I’d rather the bloody drop goal had gone over french will be gutted he was magnificent all night and just switched off for a second
It was a brilliant game from start to finish - the ending didn’t suit the manner in which the game was played
The ref did not effect the outcome
Both teams were absolutely evenly matched and it took a piece of ridiculousness to settle it
I’m devastated but we played our part in what has to be the best grand final ever

Re: Grand Final 21-man squad
People whinging about the ref please stop - you get some calls you cop some calls the game was there to easily be won on the field tonight but you had two sides playing outstanding defence
lol
We can just be beaten in a game and it not be someone’s fault - Bevan french switched off at the end - is it his fault we lost no absolutely not as he was a rock all night
It was a really hard game - the ref did a decent job imo we lost we were pipped at the post it was still a great game - first time in a long time I’ve been glued to a match throughout - I’m gutted yes but cmon let’s not play the ref card - we are better than that

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure

Agreed 100%! Lam is building at Wigan, no one can be critical of the players or Lam on that performance. The man looked sincerly devastated when being interviewed. I have faith in Lam for 2021.
Re: Grand Final 21-man squad
Things are what they are. If the ref made a wrong call that led to points scored you can’t undo that anymore than you can undo the stupid decision to go for a penalty. Personally in my opinion the penalty decision was the turning point at the death. Idiotic. Don’t do that and there would be no offside to debate but if RL had VAR that was not a try.Wigan_forever1985 wrote:People whinging about the ref please stop - you get some calls you cop some calls the game was there to easily be won on the field tonight but you had two sides playing outstanding defence

I agree Dave I said same thing - I didn’t understand the penalty decision- especially as Zak has been in poor form kicking over the last 3-4 gamesDaveO wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 10:54 pmThings are what they are.

I suppose it’s one of those though - it goes over and wigan win the match and it looks like a great decision

Re: Grand Final 21-man squad
I don’t even think kicking from there should have been a consideration on 78 minutes. Pat Richards would not have been odds on for a kick like that after such an intense game.Wigan_forever1985 wrote:I agree Dave I said same thing - I didn’t understand the penalty decision- especially as Zak has been in poor form kicking over the last 3-4 gamesDaveO wrote: ↑Fri Nov 27, 2020 10:54 pmThings are what they are.

Re: Grand Final 21-man squad
To be fair, he should have made the call, kick to touch. At that stage of the game, percentages are everything.
Anyhow, think I'll just seethe until next season and with the squad we've assembled I think, we'll blow every other team out of the water.
