Joke of a start to this final. I can see the reasoning behind the Cooper one (but still think it was harsh) but the Dufty yellow is an embarrassment. First contact was on Marshall's arms which were at chest level then just slid up the the head. Wasn't a swinging arm or with any force, he just had his arm out. Even in a weekly SL game that doesn't get penalised half the time and likely only did because Wigan kicked off and forced the whistle to be blown.
What you expect from the most arrogant ref going…turns everything into the Chris Kendall show,I wouldn’t have him reffing west hulls u-8s 5th team let alone a major match
I think it's time we moved the CC final to a smaller ground. It's not even close to full and it makes the competition and the sport look pathetic. I'd say it looks like about 60k there.
I'm not even going to get into those 'yellow cards'
Really dull final, Wigan just doing what Wigan do, doing the basics very well and grinding Wire down. Agree the final needs to be moved, either to Tottenham if we want to keep it in London or Etihad if it moves up north. The days of neutrals coming en mass to watch finals are over, and rugby league can't fill a 90k stadium by relying on two sets of fanbases (regardless of who they are) to fill it.
