GAME ON : St. Helens v Wigan Warriors - 20:00:00

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

Knock on for that Morgan try, surely?

Has Bentham gone into Ganson mode tonight? Not penalising anything then when he does give one gets it totally wrong. Farrel couldn't of streched his arm out any further over Roby if he'd tried.

Same thing happens every time there's a big game, they're refereed differently than other games.

Scared to give penalties but can't wait to give a knock on that never happened

WTF - why do we have this Cummins idiot, He's annoying.

What an idiot Stuart Cummings is, can sky please get rid! You can't make contact in the air, so Stuart, it's alright for the fullback to go up and make contact but not the attacking player!? Clueless.

Agree, what a load of cobblers, he makes up rules as he goes along. Time to get rid its embarrassing.

Enough is enough, get Cummings off the mic

Ah well, nearly a cracking win.

Challenge Cup or bust it is then. Ridiculously unlucky with injuries this season.

We wuz robbed by the officials they scored a good try and they let it stand lol

Interesting that for that last try Saints were without star play maker Theodore Fages, who had set up the first Percival try.

I understand that Cummings may be talking about the rule but to disallow that would seriously be against the spirit of the game. Both went up for the ball, Percival was stronger in the contest and reaped the reward - simple as.

After Tierney's error riddled afternoon, of which the Percival try was the worst example, I am sure that Wigan fans can't wait for star French full back Morgan Escare to return.

Will Stuart Cummings f#ck off anytime soon? How can you legitimately compete for the ball and NOT make contact with the other player?

Yeh can't wait till 2018.

This season is a write-off anyway. Only hope we have is the CC, which is a slim one.

As Escare is second choice I would say we can't wait for star English full back Sam Tomkins, sorry Samuel Tomkins to return.

As a Wigan fan I see where you are coming from with this. 2 players competed for a kick and Percival came out on top. If that had been disallowed against my team I would have been furious.

I can see where Cummings is coming from, if you wanted to be pedantic and overly technical you could argue that Tierney caught the ball and it was stolen in the air but for me comment sense says the correct decision was made.

I have to say credit to both teams for offering up a fantastic game of rugby, though dissapointed I'm proud of the effort and performance of my side.

Great game to watch as a neutral,the fact Wigan came so close with so many youngsters was something the fans should be proud of.Very hard for them now to back up on Monday as they must be knackered after that? Body and mind?

Morgan Escare, after his oustanding 10 week or thereabouts run at full back, may well be the coach's first choice at full back. Samuel Tomkins may be slotted into the halves with George Williams in 2018.

I can see where you are coming from but it's no more against the spirit of the game than the 10m infringement rule. And if there are rules that aren't in the spirit of the game then we need to change them not ignore them.

Certainly hope so.

Cracking game that - very intense; although to hear Cummins at the end begging for a brilliant try to be disallowed was disappointing. Even Phil Clarke was calling for it to be given - and he can hardly be called partisan when Wigan are involved.

Well said. For a wiginer that is, with a little smile on my face.

It was embarrassing to listen to! When are they gonna get rid of that clown Cummins? From a neutrals point of view that was a great game to watch, and as much as it pains me to say it you just have to give the Wigan club credit for their youth system. Those lads are a credit to the club and should hold their heads high.

I like Cummins take on things. He gives it by the book, not his own opinion. Which is useful in arguing with the muppets on here. FWIW I thought it should have been a try every day of the week.
