looked like a good game from the highlights, thanks ch9...
Pretty entertaining. Lots of end to end footy, the Sky Sports lads - I thought Carney was good actually - giving the most biased assesments of all time (Phil Clarke makes Fatty Vautin calling Origin appear neutral) and a French Ref whom I actually didn't mind even though he made some comical calls that were matched only by Jason Nightingales efforts in trying to ctach bombs (its all good Flo. You're a legend).
Creagh, Hunt and Prior were great but massive mention to Jonny Green who was outstanding off the bench. Fien was good and our left side tore them to shreds. Cameron King is going to be some player too just quietly.
For Wigan, I was very impressed with their props Coley and Prescott. Tomkins tried hard and was heavily involved and George Carmont was very solid. The gap is clear though. With two more games under their belts, Saints would have lapped them. Wigans vets asset is their coach - they play like an Aussie side and are very disciplined. Scored one try from a kick and the other from a loose pass. Didn't look likely apart from that.
Was a good game to watch though, great atmosphere and played very willingly but in a great spirit.
Can't wait to get home tonight and watch it again.
