I don't get all the rat boy stuff with tomkins, he's a world class player who's great to watch, don't have any gripe with him myself although he did have a poor 1st half.

As for the game a great advert for the neutral, very disappointing crowd though, a game of that stature should be hitting 20'000. Wigan went sideways in the second half looking for the win, if they concentrated on hard and straight with a fast play the ball it might have been different.

Few dodgy decisions by the ref to add to the drama, Leeds know how to win big games when it matters so well done them.

Don't get it either. Tomkins is a top quality player and doesn't deserve the stick he gets. I suppose if you're the best player around in the generally regarded best team, then you're bound to cop a load of flak. He did have a stinker in that 1st half though!

Leeds certainly deserved their win and well done to them. I thought the game was a terrific advert for the sport and with really good coverage on BBC2 at a time when many new to the game would have tuned in. A fair few will be getting into RL from that semi-final. Hoping the one today is just as good a game and advertisement for the sport.

oh well please dont feel sorry for the pies nobody gave a dambed last week when we was blatently robbed by the Referee with saints , and i do think Tomkins mistakes did cost wigan in the end Great player but his Arogant attitude rubs alot of people up the wrong way! The Rat boy think comes from our neighbours down the road we had a great player Martin Offiah who was hated by all travelling and away fans , Then youve got Kevin sinfeild whos a great player and so Dignified and respected by all home and away fans on and Off the Pitch, thats the difference

Impossible, everything is Robert Hicks fault. Syria, poverty, security shortfalls at the olympics, ginger hair, everything.
