I didnt think either was illegal myself, i feel both challenges were shoulder to the body and fully commited, like bailey on fa'asavalu last time round i just feel that because of the heads anatomically close location to the shoulder sometimes these challenges look bad but to penalise them is making the game soft.

I'll be on [url=http://www.twitter.com/dobsonjpTwitter[/url with live in-play updates and associated pithy comments for those unable to follow it elsewhere.

What a first half! Brilliant 40 minutes from Wigan.

WTF

That's me done with starting match threads then...

Top of the league! Top of the league!

We want 50!

Painful night this... Will Walters survive ?

Hope not, it's a f-ing outrage. Our most dynamic player not in the squad, donkey antipodeans being played despite being sh-te for a whole year. Out now please.

The National coach should be the catalan coach anyway...

Oh and you forgot that you were up against a fantastic Wigan side.

Is it time to go kevvie?

What a house performance.

Thats it mate, i was sat in the stands at half time thinking "he needs to go now" it was the same old story in many ways, wigan ripped us apart down the flanks time and time again, and playing some very good rugby for me, richards 4th was a treat IMO.



As the game went on I did start to be realistic, wigan looked so good with or without the ball it wouldnt have mattered who played where, who was coach or if Bell was playing or if Bosc had played regardless Wigan were hot.

They did alright. Tactics spot on, but to say they were fantastic is stretching it. They never had to get out of second gear, so we didn't see whether they were fantastic or not.



We, on the other hand, were utterly abysmal. And now I'm about to relive it all for a report....

Strap in. It's [url=http://www.sang-et-or.net/readarticle.php?article_id=679here[/url

John what were to two incidents in which the touch judge intervened, i didnt see a lot myself, wondered if you saw more as it happened from that side?

Both involved Casey McGuire, the first was a high shot on Gleeson, the second a grapple tackle on S Tomkins (I think), wrestling him to the floor by the head.

Fantastic in terms of the season so far. The fact that we didn't have to get out of 2nd gear and still managed to rack up 58 points AND nil Catalans is a superb effort.

Oh, come on. You can make all the excuses you want but the fact is Catalans should be aspiring to play at that level. It was the same Wigan team that a weaker (on paper) Catalans put 40 points past last season and lost to by two points away, the only difference playing wise was Deacon.

And a new coach that's actually getting the players to perform to their potential.

Not much to think about, he's 100% bob on

I think you are missing the point I am trying to make.

you were saying its not wigan that were good its catalans that were poor, I think it was a bit of both.

Didn't see a lot of either incident. One looked a bit of a grapple, maybe.

The point I was articulately making was that we don't know if Wigan were any cop or not because they didn't have to do much in the face of such paltry opposition.
