| Quote Rob Wire="Rob Wire"As a fellow rugby league fan i'm embarrassed at the state of officiating during that game today, it cost you dear.
Wigan should never have got the ball back from the Brent Finch attempted 40/20, that was a massive decision they got wrong, shouldn't be happening on such a big stage.
Then we have the Jeff Lima try from a forward pass, how any of the 3 officials at pitch side missed that really does beggar belief.
Also the spear tackle on the Leeds player where he clearly went above the horizontal, the ref gave nothing and Wigan scored off the next set.
Even the last try had a large amount of doubt to it, it was one of those, that could quite easily have been ruled out by a different video ref on another day. Wigan shouldn't have been in a position to score anyway, the officials got it wrong from the Brent Finch kick, it should have been your ball.
I thought your players were a credit to your club today as well as the fans, apart from that early spell from Wigan where they built up a 16-0 lead you went on to dominate the game from 10 mins before half time then for the majority of the 2nd half.
Well played.'"

I should probably do a Sam Tomkins at this point and stick 2 fingers up at you but we have more grace and class than that over this way, it makes you wonder why Sam Tomkins and Wigan fans are disliked so much.
At least when we beat Leeds last year at wembley our fans were graceful in victory which was echoed by some of the Leeds fans on here and the ones we had a drink with after the game.

Are you 5 years old? Challenge Cup "Champions"? Seriously? No-one who knows anything about Rugby League would call themselves Challenge Cup Champions. Wigan are Challenge Cup Winners, not Champions.

Indeed. Always have a good time when we play Warrington win or lose.
Probably because Warrington play a skillful, exciting brand of rugby.

| Quote mikeshort="mikeshort"The refereeing decisions did cost us but also please remember the two factors of the Leeds play that also played a significant part- Brent Webb dropping the ball which lead to a try and Leulai giving the penalty away when we were right on the line.
I think that every Leeds fan should be proud today but also very disappointed that we lost. I feel sorry for the Leeds players and just hope that it doesn't affect their mental attitude as they approach the play offs now- it could well do.
'"
I agree ref Webb and esp Lleulai (that was unforgiveable). The refereeing decisions that went against Leeds were appaling and critical in the resulting defeat....but Leeds still contributed to their own downfall by failing to maximise the sets with enough silly mistakes to compound the glaring officiating mistakes and thus lose.
Great effort, but Wigan just about deserved it I guess: the team is undoubtedly a formidable one

| The pass to Lima was a really poor decision, but still not quite as poor as the effort made to tackle him by Bailey and Ablett.
The NZ/South Africa tri nations game last week had an incident where the video official was asked if NZ had scored a try. The ref was really interested in the grounding but on replay it was an obvious, very forward pop pass to the scorer (it was only a yard from the line). The video official told the ref that the grounding was fine and then asked if he could comment on anything else, the ref said yes, and then video official called the forward pass - no try and scrum to the defence. It made me think.

| Thought the officials were good today. Finch 40/20 was wrong but apart from that I can't see anything else that was controversial.
Well played to your guys too - they really should be proud of their performance

| BJB try looked a forward pass to me, I was sat directly in front of it.
Edit: Might have been a try for Hall, i just remember a forward pass to BJB.
There were dodgy decisions both ways, it just happened that the ones everyone will remember went our way. (For once...)

Come on...Wigan are a great championship side and have the ability to win matches where they perhaps don't quite deserve it ( a little like the Leeds team of a few seasons ago funnily enough )....BUT the decisions against Leeds today (Lima's MASSIVELY forward pass and the UNFORGIVEABLY MISSED Kick into touch off Charnley) were HUGE calls.

| I honestly think when we have huge occasions like this and all the technology that goes with it it should used.
By that i mean the spear on Delaney was blatant and if Bentham and his flag wavers are gonna ignore it then the VR should imo step in because play was stopped because he gave a knock on.
It would take seconds for the VR to have a word and say look mate it was a spear wrong call and we move on.
Also Hicks was a fecking joke both Ablett and Hall 2nd half tries were clear yet the weasel called for the VR!!
We lost today because they outscored us and we couldn't quite get back level or go in front after the appalling 20 minutes during which they ran out 16-0.
We've had games when calls go for us and also against but i think the time has come to cut out glaringly wrong calls with the tools we have available.
Very proud of the lads for the spirit and comeback but it wasn't to be.
