Wigan's success recently has been largely based on defence, smothering the opposition out of the game and waiting for Field or French to come up with something. If not for them two they're pretty ordinary.

I wouldn’t say that was the case last season. Both Field and more so French were missing for quite a sizeable chuck of the Pies season.
So that doesn’t really hold up your post.
However if you’d have said Marshall instead, I couldn’t give you an argument.

Keighran got away with one about ten minutes before his binning (where Hughes ignored the PTB) he should be getting a ban. No great loss for Wigan as he’s very ordinary. No surprise to me that Leigh won, they looked very handy in the friendly. Top 4 side minimum.

Marshall was easily there best player last night, not a lover of Wigan but I appreciate a good player like him, on the game itself I hope it was a president of what will continue throughout the season for all teams with the amount of laying on, 2nd and 3rd man in late and interference with the play the ball, over the last couple of seasons there would have been numerous penalties

I’d also (remake) the point that 1 point each for the draw would have been more than good enough and a fair end to the game.

Keep the golden point for cup / play off

Absolutely. Neither team deserved to get nothing from that game.

Yeah, where it cut to Adrian Lam shouting "that's a flop" then the idiot went and did it again using his forearm for the sin bin.

Still don't understand how he can be banned if he's not amassed enough points!? Granted I still don't understand that system.

Hang on, are you saying you'd rather see teams constantly get away with all that, than be penalised?

I thought Moore had a really good game last night.

6 points for a 1 game ban my reckoning is he will get minimum 3 points come Monday

No definitely not, I just fear that the law will not be applied all the time like it wasn’t last night, again certain teams
