GAME ON : Wigan Warriors v Warrington Wolves - 19:45:00

GENERAL CHAT ABOUT THE GAME, BUILD UP, THE ACTION AS IT HAPPENS AND AFTERMATH BELOW.

Warrington by 8

So is there a new rule with the PTB or not as already seen some awful attempts and the ref has done nothing about it.

Was concerned when they announced it the refs would just ignore it.

Solid start from Warrington but shock horror, first penalty of the game and they go for two. As for Wigan, Hardaker at centre is baffling.

Wigan fans in fine voice

George Burgess, my word that was embarrassing.

Hid for the first 5 mins, 2 bad missed tackles and subbed on 16, awesome.

16 minutes Wigan’s new great white hope lasted and did nothing other than get put on his arris by bmm.

Penalty Try all day long that.

Indeed, don’t know what he’s been doing for the last 4 months but it’s pretty shocking for a marquee player to be that out of shape.

A farce if Hill isn’t sent off here. 10 games into the season and he definitely would be.

The reality is if this game wasnt on tele that would probably just be given as a knock on

Correct decision, good to see the officials not bottle it in fear of ‘ruining’ the first game of the season. Dreadful from Hill.

Ref put it up as a Penalty Try, so he'd obviously seen something in it.

Bull feathers

Had to go for that. Fair red card, hill proving he is a shadow off the player he was.

Shocking from Hill that

Wherea lockers red card?

Fair. Wouldn't have sent him off though without it being replayed 10 times. That's not to say it's not a red.

Where is the logic in going for two when 12-8 down? Absolutely baffling.

Not an early season game, but an early season tackle. Thought the officials would bottle it. All credit to them.

Pretty clear gouge from Smithies, the video ref should have picked up on that instead of Kendall just putting it on report.

Another high shot, no red. Is red cards dependent on damage done?

You don’t seriously think a high tackle is automatically a red card, do you?

Slight difference when one is head on and sloppy and the other is from behind against a guy who had no chance of protecting himself.
