Do you think Puletua (sp) played the ball correctly for Cunninghams try?

Im with you rogues, I dont think he did by the letter of the law. That said, it seems the huge clampdown we were promised, was thankfully abolished midseason because it was getting silly.

I dont know why, but I will Humour you. I've heard your balanced and accurate views on KC and Wilkin many times, but please enlighten us as to why Moore and Graham are thugs?

Well, if you want individual examples of their style of play, hopefully you'll remember the Graham late & high hit on Rob Burrow? His most common thing is continuing the Sculthorpe legacy of dropping the forearm onto tackled players' heads. That said, he's also the biggest petulant child, as demonstrated during his dummy-spitting against Leeds last year.

As for Moore, his jumping high swinging arm tackle (against Leeds I think?) earlier this season typifies his tackling style.

Is this an early indication on the indecision of who you are going to pick out next season in the absence of your hero KC. Is it going to be Graham or Moore for 2011.

KC tells me he reads your comments, and you come over all bitter + twisted, and reckons you should go out a bit more, he might invite you onto a hunt if you are interested.

What an ending.

Just goes to show you cant write Stains off when it really matters.

But what I want to know is, how come super league teams cant stop that fat over-rated hooker from doing a fat flop from 2 yards out ?? He is always doing it !!

"pie eater and proud of it" says it all really

Needed to be edited for accuracy.

Oh dear, you are one really bitter and twisted Wigan fan, I hope you dont have a cat because it would have well and truly been kicked when KC scored last night.

O'Loughlin belted Graham around the head on Good Friday, so I take it you will be hounding him out of Wigan as he's a thug?

Coley was sent off for a high shot in Catalan, Likewise will he be being kicked out as a thug too?

Gareth Hock throws high shots, and drugs ban not included is hardly whiter than white after being banned for grabbing the ref? I take it your on your way to DW Stadium now to protest about his re-signing?

Or maybe you could get real, and realise that every team in Super League from time to time does high tackles, hits late, Doesn't make them all thugs. The sooner you get over your obsession with Cunningham and Saints the better you will be.

I've just watched the highlights on SKY and have to say what a great finish. If someone had posted that on the saints board as a prediction a few from here would have been calling for the straight jackets. Pure quality, entertaining top class sport at it's best and why RL deserves to have better coverage than it does.
As said above, it just shows stains can't be written off and that has to instill a bit of worry/ doubt in wire minds.

Double post.

If that had been a match deciding try against you I think you may have complained.

Nobody complained about Feka's at Saints at the time. Nobody. HTH.

Seriously? Did you see Leeds v Hull? If Leeds turn up at the DW next Sunday and produce that kind of performance we'll put 50 past them
