:06:22. > :06:29.Outstanding. If bullying, Morgan Escare. Once he gets there, just one
:06:30. > :06:34.idea on his mind, he had two or three in support and he built on the

:07:28. > :07:36.left here. The former London man has put down 20 metres out. Wig`n are
:07:37. > :07:51.looking to step it up. And Latty Bowen, magical. Levelling things up
:07:52. > :07:55.again for Wigan. His form in the middle part of the season h`s been
:07:56. > :08:04.great and another try for the Australian full`back. Away from the
:08:05. > :08:07.dummy half area. A little skip and a hop by Williams. Just threatening
:08:08. > :08:13.that Catalan line. They had to recover quickly. Smith is qtickly
:08:14. > :08:18.out again. Now they have got the numbers. He might score himself
:08:19. > :08:25.What his opposite number, Josh Charnley, that is his 11th try in
:08:26. > :08:30.his last five games. He is ` prodigious try scorer and hhs form
:08:31. > :08:40.continues. And Wigan have got the lead. Charnley is the scorer.
:08:41. > :08:50.That is a good carry and a good drive by Taylor. Still going here.
:08:51. > :08:57.Taking it to the halfway line, very nearly. Joining in again.
:08:58. > :09:06.Back to Berlin and he is brtshing away and scoring his second try of
:09:07. > :09:11.the night. The movement frol Matty Bowen was impressive. Setting things
:09:12. > :09:16.up in the first place. And there he was in support as well. Finhshing
:09:17. > :09:25.from the Josh Charnley pass. Wigan are in control. Smith. Charnley
:09:26. > :09:34.Looking back on the inside. That does not look too good. Vincent

:09:42. > :09:47.things here. That was horrible. It looks to arable. `` terribld. They

:09:51. > :09:55.are clearly not happy. And ht going to be a yellow card for Vincent

:10:06. > :10:13.French seem to be losing thd head a little bit. More I is out qtickly.
:10:14. > :10:19.Swinging from Garcia. Just ` rash of indiscipline from the French side at
:10:20. > :10:21.the start of this second`half. Vincent Duport is already in the
:10:22. > :10:47.bin. Tracking back to the middle. John
:10:48. > :10:58.Bateman. Still pushing hard. It is Williams. Almost intercepted. It is
:10:59. > :11:08.back to another six tackles. The referee says play on. Look who is
:11:09. > :11:17.there to score, Scott Taylor. The French, losing their discipline
:11:18. > :11:27.Wooden keeping theirs. Very nearly an interception chance. When the
:11:28. > :11:35.ball goes to ground, Wigan keep it alive and Scott Taylor to fhnish.
:11:36. > :11:56.Good hands again here. It is a good clearing run bx Wigan.
:11:57. > :12:01.Coming all the way left. He gets it away. Here is an opportunitx for
:12:02. > :12:06.Burgess, who puts his foot down Even at this stage, with 30 minutes
:12:07. > :12:14.left, Wigan are in complete control. The French only have
:12:15. > :12:21.themselves to blame in terms of their lack of discipline. They are
:12:22. > :12:23.down in numbers and it is bdginning to show badly here. Burgess with
:12:24. > :12:49.another Wigan tried. Crosby is obviously not happy with
:12:50. > :12:51.the impact that was made on him Let's have a look at this. Puite
:12:52. > :13:18.clearly a shoulder charge. Here is Crosby. He is pushing his
:13:19. > :13:37.way through again here. Matty Smith is going to go for a
:13:38. > :13:49.drop goal and he looks as though he has got it, although the referee
:13:50. > :13:51.says no. I think the refered just forgot the rules there for `
:13:52. > :14:09.moment. One point is given. A last chance to gain some poise.
:14:10. > :14:14.Good hands. This will be a finish. A little bit of consolation at the
:14:15. > :14:18.end. But not much. They lost their heads. Wigan found a winning
:14:19. > :14:31.mentality. Put into context how good this win
:14:32. > :14:34.was. It's a tough place to go. Only two sides have gone there this year
:14:35. > :14:41.and got a win. It's a great result for them. There are lots of things
:14:42. > :14:50.to take into account, the wdather, the atmosphere. I think Cat`lan
:14:51. > :14:57.Dragons are the best at plaxing that sort of cauldron. Wayne seels to
:14:58. > :15:02.love these kinds of games, these big encounters. He will have enjoyed
:15:03. > :15:07.this. You will. That is how he builds the game. He challenges his
:15:08. > :15:14.players to rise to the occasion Wigan kept their head and C`talan
:15:15. > :15:19.Dragons went the opposite w`y. A few of the French players lost their
:15:20. > :15:27.heads. Wigan played better. You touched on it there. They crossed
:15:28. > :15:31.the line, the coach admitted it I think Wigan are a really aggressive
:15:32. > :15:42.team. When you play against Wigan, you know you are in for a physical
:15:43. > :15:49.game. This one is probably the worst of the bunch, late and high. It is
:15:50. > :15:54.infectious and sometimes. The French have got a reputation for doing
:15:55. > :15:58.things like that. Once one starts doing it, they think it is ` green
:15:59. > :16:08.light for them all to do. It needs addressing but it has been going on
:16:09. > :16:13.for a while. But do you get... Wigan have a reputation of being one of
:16:14. > :16:14.the best sides, if not the best in the competition.
:16:15. > :16:16.have a reputation of being one of the best sides, if not the Dvery
:16:17. > :16:31.team that plays against Wig`n up their game. That is where you see
:16:32. > :16:39.the fireworks. Every rugby league game is physical and aggressive
:16:40. > :16:43.these days. Three or four of those challenges which were deemed to have
:16:44. > :16:50.been illegal could have been timed right. Then we wouldn't be talking
:16:51. > :16:56.about it. I would be cautiots not to sanitise the game. We all enjoyed
:16:57. > :17:05.the aggressive side game. I do, anyway. Amidst the aggression, there
:17:06. > :17:10.was some fabulous stuff. Matty Bowen in particular, he seems to have
:17:11. > :17:22.developed into the full`back role. He has. It took awhile. The... He
:17:23. > :17:27.was a classy player in Australia. He has made this his own and h`s scored
:17:28. > :17:34.some fantastic tries. He has expressed his desire to stax. Wigan
:17:35. > :17:38.would be mad not to keep his services. He looks a tough guy to
:17:39. > :17:50.stop. He is really challenghng in broken field. It's difficult to play
:17:51. > :17:54.full`back in a new team. Yot got to know every single player th`t the
:17:55. > :17:58.coach calls. You've got to know everything about the opposition
:17:59. > :18:01.players who are going to kick the ball at you. Then you have got to
:18:02. > :18:04.organise your two winners and the defensive line. You need to
:18:05. > :18:07.understand the entire club structure. To do that, and bring a
:18:08. > :18:10.structure. To do that, and bring family to Wigan from North
:18:11. > :18:19.Queensland, I think it's gohng to take time. He seems to have settled
:18:20. > :18:27.in now. That's official. Who else was celebrating after around 20
:18:28. > :18:36.The Giants are in the jungld but can Huddersfield catch up with
:18:37. > :18:42.Castleford? Home, James. Co`ch Webster looks for another whn in
:18:43. > :18:50.Wakefield. They take on witness And first impressions, Mason Brown on
:18:51. > :18:56.finding his feet in the supdr league spotlight.
:18:57. > :19:02.Saint Helens started the wedkend at the top of the table. A fortnight
:19:03. > :19:07.ago, they were celebrating ` win over Wigan. They followed that up
:19:08. > :19:13.with what hits coach called an unacceptable display last wdek.
:19:14. > :19:22.For 60 minutes of the game, they were clinical, good with thd ball
:19:23. > :19:24.and scored some great tries. Then, for the last 20 minutes,
:19:25. > :19:30.and scored some great tries. Then, for the last it was disappohnting.
:19:31. > :19:42.This was a classic. I thought it was... I watched this back hn my
:19:43. > :19:47.kitchen the day after. He is not blessed with place but what he makes
:19:48. > :19:51.up for his intelligence. He has been fantastic since he went back to
:19:52. > :20:03.full`back. He deserves a lot of credit. He has produced somd great
:20:04. > :20:07.form. The frustrating thing for us would be the first half werd
:20:08. > :20:13.attacked very well. We didn't have to do a great deal of defending the
:20:14. > :20:17.stuff we were not put under too much pressure by Bradford. In thd last 20
:20:18. > :20:22.minutes, we were scrutinised a little more and didn't come up too
:20:23. > :20:29.well. Bradford scored some good tries. We were not too happx with
:20:30. > :20:33.how we played. When you look back at last week, you've been on the back
:20:34. > :20:41.end of some big losses. When you look back on those games, and you
:20:42. > :20:46.see where it went wrong? Not really, and that's important to point out.
:20:47. > :20:50.In the build`up to games, to get a sense you are going to play poorly,
:20:51. > :20:54.you can almost justified or you know it is going to come. In the
:20:55. > :20:58.performances we played poorly, it has been no sense of it comhng.
:20:59. > :21:04.We've trained well in the wdek. In all honesty, what we've dond is come
:21:05. > :21:11.up against two or three teals who have played their best performances
:21:12. > :21:21.of the year against us. It's a combination of the two. Is he
:21:22. > :21:27.looking for some character, some spirit to build on for next season?
:21:28. > :21:32.Some teen spirit, yes. It w`s fantastic to score 24 points away at
:21:33. > :21:39.Saints. He is building for next year. He is trying to get players
:21:40. > :21:43.playing with a smile on thehr face again. They can put some good
:21:44. > :21:48.performances between now at the end of the season, it will be great for
:21:49. > :21:56.the year after. It is tough for them. It has been a tough old
:21:57. > :22:04.season. Is he looking for youngsters coming through? Yes, I think so If
:22:05. > :22:09.you look at the stronger te`ms in the super league, they've always got
:22:10. > :22:14.quality youngsters. You do need to look at the youth. You need to try
:22:15. > :22:26.and retain as many of the ctrrent players as possible. He knew what he
:22:27. > :22:29.was taking off. The feel`good factor that embraced Salford at thd start
:22:30. > :22:36.of the season has returned, thanks in part to a few fresh placds. Mason
:22:37. > :22:39.Brown made an interesting ddbut last week. He is loving life with the Red
:22:40. > :23:03.Devils. It was good to get a try my debut. I
:23:04. > :23:13.run than aside and had enough pace to get away from everyone. Ht was
:23:14. > :23:23.nice to win as well. Here comes the man on debut, Mason Brown. Lovely
:23:24. > :23:28.footwork. Yeah, I'm enjoying it It's a big difference from London.
:23:29. > :23:34.It's much more intense. There are more experienced players around me
:23:35. > :23:38.so there is a lot to learn. There are a lot of young players hn London
:23:39. > :24:05.this year. I got the opporttnity to play.
:24:06. > :24:12.Southeast. My friend was pl`ying at college. And I was off season. I
:24:13. > :24:16.just turned up with him to the trial. I had not played rugby league
:24:17. > :24:20.before. I got into the squad and played in the tournament and I got
:24:21. > :24:27.into the student squad. And from there I looked into the Broncos open
:24:28. > :24:32.trial. The last couple of g`mes of last year were probably the best. My
:24:33. > :24:37.debut, I scored on my first game and got a hat`trick in the second. I
:24:38. > :24:43.finished from the bottom, actually. Giving Salford the wooden spoon 11
:24:44. > :24:49.tries and Kate Brown had moved to Salford failed to have the Broncos
:24:50. > :24:56.register a win. Became closdr, winning a few games. But lost in the
:24:57. > :25:01.last few minutes. I enjoyed coming here. It was good. He changdd a lot
:25:02. > :25:07.of things on and off the fidld. They have got a good team, London. And it
:25:08. > :25:16.is my home club. It was a bhg decision to move. But no regrets.
:25:17. > :25:22.How has he settled in, do you think? Very well. We saw on his debut with
:25:23. > :25:24.a great try. He is one of those players that is just effortless It
:25:25. > :25:31.does not look like he is running fast. But he is very quick `nd very
:25:32. > :25:34.athletic. He has got a lot to learn about rugby league. He is vdry green
:25:35. > :25:39.but I think he will develop at Salford and will be a great
:25:40. > :25:42.addition. Salford looking for back`to`back super league whns for
:25:43. > :25:47.the first time since the opdning couple games of the season. Hull FC
:25:48. > :25:53.on Saturday. No Kevin Locke for you but Rangi Chase catching thd eye. He
:25:54. > :26:00.played particularly well in this game. Going back to Kevin, going
:26:01. > :26:40.against Huddersfield, he was outstanding. The
:26:41. > :26:45.ASH we probably. `` we prob`bly We would have done anything for any
:26:46. > :26:46.kind of win before but it is great that we are in the position where we
:26:47. > :28:05.can be critical of the coach will take a while to really
:28:06. > :28:09.stamp his way of coaching on. It has taken a while with the amount of
:28:10. > :28:12.turnovers, it was always gohng to take a bit of time. It took longer
:28:13. > :28:17.than we thought and would h`ve hoped. But hopefully now with a
:28:18. > :28:22.couple of wins in a couple of games, we hope to kick on. The
:28:23. > :28:26.important one for me was th`t one had Castleford. That was a game that
:28:27. > :28:31.we could and should have won. It lifted the confidence. Compdting
:28:32. > :28:35.against the top sides. Sincd then we have got a couple from a cotple He
:28:36. > :28:41.has been a shining light for Hull this season. Yes, he is one of those
:28:42. > :28:45.players that gets them going forward. I think the issue hs when
:28:46. > :28:49.they are going forward and playing quickly and the game is spedding up,
:28:50. > :28:55.it is then scoring points, looking for and against, the big problem is
:28:56. > :29:03.scoring points. I guess that is why they brought Leon Pryce and Sneyd
:29:04. > :29:06.win. You touch the ball a lot and to be creative and have vision, Hull do
:29:07. > :29:11.a lot of the hard work but they struggle in the last third of the
:29:12. > :29:15.field. They need to score points and to win the contest you need points.
:29:16. > :29:19.What is promising for Lee R`dford is actually in defence they ard really
:29:20. > :29:23.solid. It is credit to Salford how much they have scored in thd game.
:29:24. > :29:27.And Rangi Chase is holding `ll the strings and he has been for the past
:29:28. > :29:32.few weeks. That win. At mid London would be relegated if they were
:29:33. > :29:39.defeated at Warrington. `` that win meant London would be releg`ted It
:29:40. > :29:43.was somewhat predictable, w`sn't it? Yes, Warrington are in absolute
:29:44. > :29:46.white hot form and of coursd always going to be a struggle for ` side
:29:47. > :29:52.conceding almost 900 points this year. Going to a ground where the
:29:53. > :30:00.scoring in team, to get a rdsult, it was difficult. Of his side `nd he
:30:01. > :30:12.said it was worst performance that they had that for them...
:30:13. > :30:26.The dogs from Joel Monaghan kicking inside. What have you used to
:30:27. > :30:39.them all of the eye. Is out there again
:30:40. > :30:47.people are asking when it is bubble going to burst but I do not think
:30:48. > :30:50.that it is going to burst. They act three tries. You've even many doing
:30:51. > :31:02.that. They have done the going well. And
:31:03. > :31:08.he had to go one better and get for. I think they are the best tdam in
:31:09. > :31:12.the competition. They are bding ruthless. When they get thehr noses
:31:13. > :31:19.in front. They are ruthless. They keep applying pressure. And they are
:31:20. > :31:23.relentless. Unfortunately it was London that were at the end of a
:31:24. > :31:31.hiding. But it could have bden anybody. They have got such speed
:31:32. > :31:37.when they are on a roll. Th`t is what we talk about. They just keep
:31:38. > :31:43.the pressure on. I played against London, I think it was a cotple of
:31:44. > :31:49.years ago. It is good to sed Paul back. , yes, and I remember we
:31:50. > :31:56.played London and we were going a lot about them and they scored more
:31:57. > :32:04.than 80 points. It can happdns. Especially at home. Jet took over he

:32:35. > :32:38.To get performance out of this team this year is going to be very
:32:39. > :32:43.difficult. And what you had to look at is the future. Planning to get a
:32:44. > :32:50.future performance out of the team is crucial. London and the
:32:51. > :32:54.south`east is such a big brdeding ground for rugby league now and so
:32:55. > :32:57.many people are playing in that area. We need to maintain that
:32:58. > :33:02.presence. London need to get the edge to the club. And I am sure that
:33:03. > :33:06.is what the planning is all about. Building a squad in the next few
:33:07. > :33:11.years that can perform at the top level. That is what we are leasured
:33:12. > :33:14.on and what will be the difference. Huddersfield at the Jungle on Friday
:33:15. > :33:19.night took on Castleford. It was fought against six. They cotld be
:33:20. > :33:24.level on points with a Giants win. David was watching.
:33:25. > :33:31.COMMENTATOR: They had a gre`t run of results before the unexpectdd hick
:33:32. > :33:38.up against Salford. The opponents have got back wins. They have had
:33:39. > :33:42.got chances of leading this year. It has been an extraordinary sdason so
:33:43. > :33:46.far with a promise of more to come. Castleford have stored Liam Finn to
:33:47. > :33:59.the starting line`up. `` restored. Huddersfield are without Danny
:34:00. > :34:04.Brough. He will be badly missed on this small page. And crisp daily is
:34:05. > :34:10.as hooker. That is unusual. `` this small page. `` Chris Bailey.
:34:11. > :34:23.Well Marshall the Castleford defence. `` well patrolled, the
:34:24. > :34:33.Castleford defence. Shoot to the right the Tigers are just about
:34:34. > :34:38.hanging on here. Well, the signs are that he might have touched ht down,
:34:39. > :34:44.Bailey. The referee wants to have another look. Bailey getting the
:34:45. > :34:51.head down. What he using anxbody has a Shepherd? I do not think that
:34:52. > :34:57.anybody was for the `` was he using anybody shepherding, I do not think
:34:58. > :35:03.so. Risk and it might not bd familiar in the role of `` he might

:35:18. > :35:22.Robinson's. Sneyd is back to take it. And it is a decent chasd. But he
:35:23. > :35:30.has found a way through. He is inside. Homes on the outsidd. And
:35:31. > :35:40.Oliver Holmes with a very special finish to a very special trx. I am
:35:41. > :35:45.not sure that he was expecthng to be the in a try scoring position.
:35:46. > :35:50.Ablett `` Sneyd came dashing through and Oliver Holmes showed a very
:35:51. > :36:00.clean pair of heels to get hnside. Here is Clark. Across the lhne they
:36:01. > :36:07.go again. And he has intercdpted the past, Cudjoe. And he will go the
:36:08. > :36:13.distance. No doubt about th`t, from the moment that he took that
:36:14. > :36:19.interception. It is against the run of play. Liam Finn would have had a
:36:20. > :36:28.sinking feeling when he delhvered that pass. Because he was stddenly
:36:29. > :36:34.looming large, Cudjoe. That will lead again here. `` Huddersfield are
:36:35. > :36:39.establishing a comfortable lead again here.
:36:40. > :37:06.Here is Clark battering ram effortful
:37:07. > :37:18.entered in a brick wall to keep them from coming in here. Fly through.
:37:19. > :37:43.Fog, if back in does this come from the Huddersfield
:37:44. > :37:52.player? I think that it does. That was the suspicion of the referee.
:37:53. > :38:03.And right on half`time, Castleford take the lead. Well, the tiling is
:38:04. > :38:28.absolutely perfect. The cakd was spot`on. `` kick. Here is Mhlner.
:38:29. > :38:39.And I think he is in. Yes, he is. So, a try just before the break
:38:40. > :38:45.Now, another just after. Castleford have tended right around. ` turned
:38:46. > :39:07.it right around. They break down the middle. Milner
:39:08. > :39:10.is going to be felled. Castleford have momentum working in thdir
:39:11. > :39:21.favour again. It's been a lhghtning start to the second half. Dhxon
:39:22. > :39:27.Perfection again! Dixon had to catch, twist and turn. It ndeded a
:39:28. > :39:59.kick on a sixpence in the fhrst place.
:40:00. > :40:34.try of the night. It was made easy for Castleford.
:40:35. > :40:43.often has that combination delivered the goods? Maybe there is a little
:40:44. > :41:44.bit of hope for Huddersfield. They have given an opportunity.
:41:45. > :41:52.And he is doing superbly well here. He is still going. Here he comes.
:41:53. > :41:57.And he is down the touchlind. An absolutely sensational try. And
:41:58. > :42:05.Huddersfield are back within touching distance. But hang on.
:42:06. > :42:12.Richard Silverwood wants to have a look at it again. As he got his foot
:42:13. > :42:18.in touch? Oh, he has done. Just That right foot was just on the
:42:19. > :42:24.whitewash. And Castleford whll survive the scare. How big ` moment
:42:25. > :42:37.might that proved to be in this game?
:42:38. > :42:50.Mariano, oh, my word. He is still going here. He was like a htman
:42:51. > :42:54.wrecking ball. Scoring a trx which surely now settles the nervds of
:42:55. > :43:02.Castleford and wins them wh`t has been a dramatic game. The rdferee's
:43:03. > :43:10.view of one man on a destruction route to the try line. Frankie
:43:11. > :43:20.Mariano. Leaving bodies in his wake and scoring the try. Here is Bailey.
:43:21. > :43:25.Robinson. Crabtree. Mariano taking a knock. And he is carrying on! And
:43:26. > :43:32.Huddersfield are carrying on. They have not given up just yet. There
:43:33. > :43:37.are still eight minutes left to play. This is going over, jtst eight
:43:38. > :43:45.points in it. Crabtree has given them an escape route here. Ht is
:43:46. > :43:57.Clark. Tantalising run by D`rrell Clarke. Back to thin. With ` pass
:43:58. > :44:00.and here goes Millington. And now there are no gaps. Castleford are
:44:01. > :44:07.going to win. They have survived a couple of scares, provided by the
:44:08. > :44:10.spirit of Huddersfield. Castleford will stay within touching dhstance
:44:11. > :44:17.of the top spot with 20 rounds played.
:44:18. > :44:25.The coach particularly happx. What did you think? I thought it was a
:44:26. > :44:30.fair result. They got a few players out. Having a bit of a wobble at the
:44:31. > :44:35.moment. It is hard to be at your best all year. They are probably
:44:36. > :44:39.struggling at the moment. On the flip side they scored some very good
:44:40. > :44:44.tries. A tough place to go `nd get the win. I thought it was a fair
:44:45. > :44:49.result. Huddersfield will wdll come the players back soon. And H am sure
:44:50. > :44:55.we will see eight event sidd next week. Even with the win thex did not
:44:56. > :45:01.seem happy with the form. They have been inconsistent this year. We talk
:45:02. > :45:04.about the top five teams fighting it out to see who will take a
:45:05. > :45:09.stranglehold. I think Huddersfield have just been trying to find a way
:45:10. > :45:13.to string performances together Again, speaking about the bdst teams
:45:14. > :45:19.in rugby league across the world, they defend well. They concdded 44
:45:20. > :45:23.against Castleford. They have got a big issue in defence. Again,
:45:24. > :45:28.consistency with the defencd. When Danny Brough is playing and they
:45:29. > :45:31.have got the players in the team they are a threat. They can move it
:45:32. > :45:38.to Ferris. They have got an attacking threat with Cudjod. And
:45:39. > :45:41.they have got the big men and a few of the other big guys dynamhc in the
:45:42. > :45:46.middle. They are quite thre`tening with the ball. They have struggled
:45:47. > :45:50.in defence. Teams are coming at them. They finished top of the
:45:51. > :45:54.league last year. Being on the top of the file and having everx team
:45:55. > :45:59.chasing you is different to creeping up on the radar. That is wh`t they
:46:00. > :46:04.have had to deal with. You talk about Chris Hill taking to ht like a
:46:05. > :46:09.duck to water and so has Li`m Finn. They said after the game th`t he was
:46:10. > :46:13.actually dropped last week but he showed what he was made of this
:46:14. > :46:18.week. Sometimes you need adversity to get back up and show what you are
:46:19. > :46:23.capable of. If that was the case, getting dropped last week, he made
:46:24. > :46:27.himself known this week. Thdy have been playing very well as a team.
:46:28. > :46:32.There is not one player that has been the standout. They havd been
:46:33. > :46:37.fantastic as a team unit. Pdople were waiting for him to fall off.
:46:38. > :46:42.But they have not done that. They have kept improving. They are
:46:43. > :46:47.traditionally one of the strong clubs and they have done well this
:46:48. > :46:52.year. And they are well coached and they have done great. Wakefheld have
:46:53. > :46:56.been flying since James Webster was appointed head coach. Four games
:46:57. > :47:00.without the. Ending any fears of a chin and they had a chance on
:47:01. > :47:04.Thursday to get within a cotple of points of the play`off placds when
:47:05. > :47:15.Widnes were in town. The Wildcats had the luggage for the conpuest but
:47:16. > :47:19.Wigan made the better start here. COMMENTATOR It is on again. And it
:47:20. > :47:22.looks like Tickle is going to crash on. And he has indeed. First points
:47:23. > :47:39.go the way of the Vikings. The defence has finally been broken.
:47:40. > :47:46.Oh and he has missed. McShane. To his right. Looping pass. And it has
:47:47. > :47:52.been picked off by the Vikings. Rob on their own 20 metre line down the
:47:53. > :47:57.left`hand side. Has he got the legs to get in at the corner? Trx to get
:47:58. > :48:01.back and he has made the tackle as well. Five metres short of the try
:48:02. > :48:10.line. A very good effort. They have got to come forward. 20 metres away.
:48:11. > :48:16.And they have lost the ball and the Wildcats have picked it up. To his
:48:17. > :48:30.left. Wakefield looking to break out here. And he takes the tackle 2
:48:31. > :48:38.metres away. Trying to get back to his feet. McShane to his right. Tim
:48:39. > :48:43.Smith with a dummy kick through And he's going to be tackled a couple of
:48:44. > :48:47.metres from the line. Just too slow. I am not blaming him for it
:48:48. > :48:56.because clearly he picked up an injury in the tackle here. The ball
:48:57. > :49:04.has gone loose. And the viddo reference see if Wakefield have
:49:05. > :49:07.scored. And Wakefield, going for the ball, almost simultaneous on the big
:49:08. > :49:13.screen. But as I understand it that will be a try.
:49:14. > :49:28.Here is McShane. Smith. On `gain. To the left of the post! It is going to
:49:29. > :49:31.go to the video referee. Just signed a new deal this week for thd
:49:32. > :49:40.Wildcats. Looking to put thdm in front by 10`4.
:49:41. > :49:47.The converted try meant that they had to a pile of March at to give
:49:48. > :49:57.the Vikings hope. Down the right`hand side, hdading
:49:58. > :50:04.towards the goal area. As hd dealt with it? Scoring in the corner. It
:50:05. > :50:07.is going upstairs. If he has got that down, he has made a big
:50:08. > :50:18.mistake. CROWD CHEERS... They had more
:50:19. > :50:22.chances but they could not get past the stubborn defence. Leaving Denis
:50:23. > :50:29.Betts the frustrated after the game. Vikings with just one win ott of
:50:30. > :50:33.eight. The Wildcats continudd the remarkable transformation under
:50:34. > :50:34.James Webster. Unbeaten run now extended to five games with a place
:50:35. > :50:44.in the play`offs a real possibility. I think James Webster gets the prize
:50:45. > :50:52.for the best facial expresshon for a coat. It has been a case of looking
:50:53. > :50:57.up at not looking down. Is that the thing, being positive? I thhnk that
:50:58. > :51:01.is the case. It is amazing what it does for your confidence, whnning.
:51:02. > :51:07.You seem to have a knock`on effect. They have got momentum at the
:51:08. > :51:11.moment. Widnes on the flip side they are on a downward spir`l. I do
:51:12. > :51:16.not think that it was a gre`t spectacle. It was a couple of teams
:51:17. > :51:22.desperate for the win. And Wakefield have shown that when you have got a
:51:23. > :51:27.bit of form behind you, luck tends to go for you and they had some
:51:28. > :51:30.luck. They have had a fantastic run. They have got tough fixtures coming
:51:31. > :51:35.up. Catalan away, Warrington, Huddersfield, and then Salford. That
:51:36. > :51:39.will be a real test for the play`offs. If they want to do
:51:40. > :51:44.anything this year, they ard going to have to win those games. They
:51:45. > :51:47.will have two the playing mtch better teams than the peopld they
:51:48. > :51:52.have missed in the play`offs. One of the big things has been Tim Smith. I
:51:53. > :51:58.think Webster has come and done a good job. He did say I'm lucky. I
:51:59. > :52:01.spoke to Richard as well. When you have got a player that has been
:52:02. > :52:07.comfortable and playing verx well. To long time, so well. And to come
:52:08. > :52:10.back he slotted straight back in and I think that they are threatening
:52:11. > :52:17.team with more direction. More composed. It was a low scorhng game
:52:18. > :52:23.but Tim Smith has made a telling contribution Wakefield play well.
:52:24. > :52:25.What Boro back on the field for the first time since April. Kevhn
:52:26. > :53:09.Sinfield back as well. `` Rob Burrow.
:53:10. > :54:30.Having these players, what they have got is crucial. It gives
:54:31. > :54:55.Warrington are the only movdrs, going up on points difference.
:54:56. > :54:59.Wakefield climbing up above Hull. London will be relegated if they
:55:00. > :55:05.lose against Huddersfield on Sunday. The highlight of around 21 with a
:55:06. > :55:08.couple of big derby matches, Leeds and Castleford and Warrington and

:56:25. > :56:30.discussed and it will be tested in the next few weeks with Kevhn Locke
:56:31. > :56:36.and the others. What happendd was that the clubs have had a look at it
:56:37. > :56:40.twice. There is an interest in a marquee player rule but thex do not
:56:41. > :56:45.want to sacrifice financial sustainability. We have signed a
:56:46. > :56:48.deal which brings more monex to the clubs than they have had before
:56:49. > :56:51.They want to make sure sustainability is secured bdfore
:56:52. > :56:58.they think about introducing a marquee player rule which could
:56:59. > :57:03.increase player payments. Are you for or against a marquee pl`yer I
:57:04. > :57:10.am forth. I grew up in the Super League with the likes of Adrian and
:57:11. > :57:14.Johnston, they are genuine internationals that come ovdr and
:57:15. > :57:19.ply their trade. It was I think great for the sport. In the current
:57:20. > :57:23.climate we cannot afford to bring the players over but with this we
:57:24. > :57:28.can afford to bring players into internationals and I think ht will
:57:29. > :57:33.be great for the game. Your chairman is in favour and yours is against
:57:34. > :57:36.it. What do you think? The heart sides to every argument. Is there a
:57:37. > :57:42.commercial argument for bringing in star players and more pounds and
:57:43. > :57:46.pence spent in the game? I think the jury is out. You want your services
:57:47. > :57:51.to be rewarded and the playdr services to be rewarded. Thd salary
:57:52. > :57:57.cap came for a couple of re`sons. To insure fair distribution of talent.
:57:58. > :58:02.So no one team could cause over the best like Wigan in the 1990s and to
:58:03. > :58:07.ensure that clubs do not get into strife and spends too much. With the
:58:08. > :58:11.salary cap they have still got themselves into financial problems.
:58:12. > :58:17.I think there is an argument for, let's just wait and underst`nd how
:58:18. > :58:24.the money is going to settld with the clubs, the TV money. And there
:58:25. > :58:28.needs to be a look at the s`lary cap in the following years. I do not
:58:29. > :58:32.know if something like this quickly is the right thing. I think it needs
:58:33. > :58:37.to be looked at. We need to keep evolving. I think the tempt`tion for
:58:38. > :58:42.players has never been greater to leave this competition. To go to the
:58:43. > :58:46.NRL and rugby union and that is the honest answer. We need to look at
:58:47. > :58:51.what is best. We will come back and talk about it, no doubt. Th`nk you
:58:52. > :58:54.for joining me this week. The Super League Show will be back at a
