Wq, you conveniently failed to mention our first try came off the back of a penalty! So did a couple other of our tries! It was the same for both teams. So in context actually pretty even. And am not backing the officials on this just stating what happened.

It's kind of the point of penalties! They either get you direct points from the kick, or put you in a better attacking position with a full set of tackles
It's disappointing when you don't get something off the back of a penalty

Indeed..............but 3 penalties at the start of the game, giving one side a 12 point cushion is a tad different from the "tit for tat" scenario that you and the useless troll, NB are alluding to. 12 - 0 down is a big mountain to climb
I other news....frm the BBC

What an utter nice person........he was out-coached....he should just admit it!
JESUS WEPT HOW MANY TIMES????? £20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000. The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.
There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them.
Dog, get yr facts right 3 penalties at the start of the game resulted in 2 tries for wakey one try for us, and it was actually over a 17 min period. Broncos second try on 25 mins was also straight from a penalty,sounds pretty balanced to me. Buzza, agree lots of tries come of back of penalties, but mentioning ones against us and conveniently forgetting the ones for us is interesting. My point was the count was pretty even at 5 a piece until the last few minutes, those last 3 virtually every team would have done the same in that position at that point of the game
I am pi$$ed that they won't let me view the Sky video highlights from Bangkok. What possible copyright would they be infringing by letting us see it? (I used the RFL paying website to watch the Sky telecast games).

Broncos definitely looked fitter - Wakefield were knackered 10 minutes into the second half. COYB!

I simply noted that Wakefield got off to a quick start which was aided by penalties. Any remarks on what happened afterwards wouldn't change that.
