Good arm wrestle so far.

Hull KR are putting there all in defence and lacking the attack they have shown this season. Wigan finish there chances and they win. Would be nice to see one of the top 4 knocked out.

Cannonball tackle. Should've been off. Silverwood wimped out.

On who? By who?

Cannonball is from the side. That was from the back. Correct decision for mine.

Correct decision to give the penalty. No even close to been a yellow card, never mind a sending off.

Well done Hull KR. Deserved the win.

Really poor game of rugby league, but if it was FC, I'd take it!

Now that was funny, especially near the end when Farrell got taken out by Mclloram.

Well played K.R. thoroughly deserved.

only caught the last 25 minutes but i really enjoyed it. good, tight, tough cup tie.Thought Tomkins had won it at the end but great effort to keep him out and from what i saw Tilse and Campese were very good.

Tight yes and from that point of view, entertaining. I agree, better than watching a 60 nil drubbing. But it was also like watching two teams play on the local park at times in terms of skills on show.

You must be a lovely person.

FWIW both teams were absolutely shocking, Hull KR were slightly less shocking though.

Wet, slippery conditions, two teams hammering each other, pressure to get a result...FFS if that had being us beating Wigan on their own turf after being stuffed there 2 weeks previous you'd be jacking in your pants.
It was a very tough and committed game, and you will never see that level on the local park, you obviously have no idea about the difference in stamina required nor the skill in such conditions, or is it that you're international level??
Why not give credit where it is due.

It's been an entertaining week with the comments from those in authority in the borough of Wigan.

As if to prove they never learn -

Then tonights result.

Well done Rovers.

And you must be a Wigan fan, how many time has Mcllorrum put a cheap shot on an opponent? - oh the karma.




No they weren't K.R tackled their hearts out & took most of their chances, but you're correct about Wigan though.

You need to watch the tackle on Horne, on exactly 29 mins. That was from the side and by the same player. It looks like he is inclined to make these cannonball type tackles and is gonna hurt someone sooner or later. Think he will hear more about it during the week

"Oh dear, someone has a different opinion to me on a discussion forum! How can this be allowed to happen?"

Well as you see that type of rugby week in week out I'll take that thanks.

Doing it from behind (Ooooo-eerrrrr) doesn't make it much better. It's still horrible to see a player collapse back over his trapped leg. The upper body cannot fall forward if the player is held, making it incredibly dangerous. It's a sly technique that an honest player, coached responsibly, wouldn't make. It speaks volumes for Maguire era Wigan that their young players use these techniques.

A cannonball tackle is one which attacks a joint against its natural movement, not necessarily one from the side.

Doesn't matter where it's from does it? It's the force of the impact and the weight of the 'chopped', collapsing upper body which isn't able to fall naturally as it's being held, so collapses over the joint.

When did Wigan move to Leigh?

Decent performance from KR and well deserved winners, but Wigan were awful and the game in general wasn't great.

I noticed the tackle as well, Sam Powell on Horne, dangerous looking tackle. As a Wigan fan I've seen him do this before, pretty sure he was sin binned for it, needs to stamp it out his game.

The England scrum half totally anonymous again when the pressure is on.

Great contest. Bad game.

If you believed what Wiganers come out with, you'd think they've a squad full of world beaters. Most of them are crap.

Dom Crosby aka 'The Turtle' with the amount of time he spends on his back. Total waste of space.

Sarginson crap.

Smith disappears totally under pressure yet again.

Hampshire at full back ? I think we've all seen enough by now to see how much he's struggling defensively.

And what else did we all get the pleasure of witnessing again last night ? Wigan throwing the toys out the pram when things don't go their way. We had the full repertoire: high shots, a knock out, cannonball tackles, Mickey's 'hard man' face, Wane's 'this isn't right' face. Honestly, they're an embarrassment to the sport. Still, their fans don't mind about how this group of would be convicts represent their club and the game.

Well done HKR. Deserved victory.
