Was getting sick of everyone liking Peet as well
If Wardles try hadn't been given and the 1 on 1 ball steal hadn't been penalised Penrith would deffo have won by 30 or 40 or more
I also feel sorry for the Aussies, because they deffo don't whinge unnecessarily. They deffo don't like the cards all stacked in their favour and they deffo Don't react badly to losing
Having witnessed in person their 2008 world cup final loss they are the epitome of Good sports
Overall a very good day, just wished we'd lost to keep everyone else happy.

One point I do agree is that Wardle's try wasnt over the line it was infact on the line dragged over by the Penrith player.
You will make the playoffs maybe 3rd as I predicted last year.

What I find nauseating now is the comments that Peet is coming out with. I was a big supporter of him initially, a talented young English coach who spoke the truth.

However now it seems that only his players are mates with each other, only his club does community work, only Wigan players are in the trenches with each other. It’s as though no other SL club has a winning culture and it’s starting to grate.

It actually suits in a way as we are flying hugely under the radar. There was even a poster on here that said HKR will win a Grand Final before we do again.

I just hope we can make the play offs based on that.

I deliberately kept off as I knew emotions would be high and posters having had a few scoops.

The fact remains that the Wardle try was the biggest impact on the game. There is no way he got the ball over the line. Strangely just after Kendall said he’d viewed all available angles the next replay showed it was short.

Not sure how Moore can categorically give that as a try but not the May one at the end. FWIW I didn’t think that was a try either but it’s still strange that Moore gave one without the other. I’m not at all surprised that the Aussies are going mad.

I actually think this could be the end of the WCC as a concept. I’d be very surprised if their champions travel here again with an English ref.

You’ll all cite sour grapes but you can’t accuse Saints fans of not coming on and then just tear apart what they say.

And the poster that said any other SL would’ve conceded 50 against Penrith last night is laughable. Clearly forgotten about a certain team that won it in Australia without having played a SL game first.

Did you seriously think that I was going to come on and congratulate you like some of the other clubs fans have done?

I doubt anyone would’ve jumped up at Dodds DG last year and I fully understand that. Wigan want Saints to lose every game unless it benefits Wigan and vice versa.

I wouldn’t have it any other way. You can still respect the club, fan base, youth production etc at the same time. The 2 things aren’t mutually exclusive.
