What a joke the officials have made of the final already with the sin binning of Cooper and now Duffy and not even hit 5 mins

Re: TV Games - Not Hull : Sat Jun 08, 2024 2:15 pm  

Joke of a start to this final.
I can see the reasoning behind the Cooper one (but still think it was harsh) but the Dufty yellow is an embarrassment. First contact was on Marshall's arms which were at chest level then just slid up the the head. Wasn't a swinging arm or with any force, he just had his arm out. Even in a weekly SL game that doesn't get penalised half the time and likely only did because Wigan kicked off and forced the whistle to be blown.

What you expect from the most arrogant ref going…turns everything into the Chris Kendall show,I wouldn’t have him reffing west hulls u-8s 5th team let alone a major match

Re: TV Games - Not Hull : Sat Jun 08, 2024 2:46 pm  

Kendall is an amateur, this is the big advert for the game and he kills it at the start. Worse than Ganson.

Warrington not building anything here, just wild stabs in the dark.

I think it's time we moved the CC final to a smaller ground. It's not even close to full and it makes the competition and the sport look pathetic.
I'd say it looks like about 60k there.

I'm not even going to get into those 'yellow cards'

Re: TV Games - Not Hull : Sat Jun 08, 2024 3:31 pm  

Wire should have stuck with the same team as last week. Really disappointing display so far from them.

Re: TV Games - Not Hull : Sat Jun 08, 2024 3:33 pm  

Really dull final, Wigan just doing what Wigan do, doing the basics very well and grinding Wire down. Agree the final needs to be moved, either to Tottenham if we want to keep it in London or Etihad if it moves up north. The days of neutrals coming en mass to watch finals are over, and rugby league can't fill a 90k stadium by relying on two sets of fanbases (regardless of who they are) to fill it.

Looks like Wigan are defending with20 players. There not giving Wire an inch.
