a chance to end at the top of the table. Jon Wilkin of Saint Helens | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
and Adrian Morley of Salford will cost and high on what has gone on. | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
It is tight at the top of the table. Are they feeling the pressure? If we | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
look at you months of the contest I think the top five are jostling | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
Nobody has found any great form Some are threatening to get a bit of | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
a roll. I think with the jeopardy that has been talked about with the | :02:16. | :02:19. | |
structure and the relegation it has made it very interesting. At the top | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
it is very tight. I think wd have got interest all the way down. | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
Rightly or wrong way. I think we have had exciting games, close games | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
and blow out games and coaches moving on. Fireworks, and a bit of | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
everything. It has been a great season. Probably a lots to do with | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
what is coming up. It is season. Probably a lots to do with | :02:41. | :02:42. | |
what is coming up. It tight in the middle. Some looking up and some | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
looking over their shoulder. There are four or five teams prob`bly | :02:48. | :02:54. | |
buying for `` looking at nulber eight in the play`off spot. It will | :02:55. | :02:55. | |
be very exciting. eight in the play`off spot. It will | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
We hope we will be up there. Wigan were the latest to try and bring | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
some points back from the South of France. Catalan have been unbeatable | :03:06. | :03:10. | |
since the start of the season. In the short but eventful history. | :03:11. | :03:17. | |
Eight years ago, a different looking Wigan for the first ever match in | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
super league of Catalan and it was a smiling start for the Dragons. | :03:22. | :03:29. | |
COMMENTATOR: What can they do from here? He has taken it all the way! | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
And what a try. He cannot bdlieve it. And most recently an eqtally | :03:35. | :03:47. | |
dramatic match in March. He has got it all the way. The Dragons are on | :03:48. | :03:51. | |
the move. Already over the halfway line. This is brilliant rugby league | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
from the Catalan Dragons, rhght onto the edge of the 20 metre zone. Death | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
and pace, sensational score by the Catalan Dragons. `` depth. He is | :04:02. | :04:14. | |
scoring, all the way! He will win it for the Warriors. Watching the | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
latest instalment of Catalan against Wigan, Dave Woods. They havd been | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
pretty impressive. Of late, just one defeat in eight matches. And that | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
was the concession of a latd penalty against Leeds. | :04:31. | :04:32. | |
defeat in eight matches. And that was the concession of The strge into | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
the play`offs has been emph`tic Bouncing back to winning waxs with a | :04:36. | :04:38. | |

that he can take on They ard looking at this on the replay and m`king | :06:11. | :06:14. | |
sure that he had a touch. Hd had not. And it has been confirled. | :06:15. | :06:21. | |
Outstanding. If bullying, Morgan Escare. Once he gets there, just one | :06:22. | :06:29. | |
idea on his mind, he had two or three in support and he built on the | :06:30. | :06:34. | |
base and he did, only just. But just was good enough. Leon Pryce offering | :06:35. | :06:40. | |
up on the inside, to Jason Betty Airey, wearing the captain `rmband | :06:41. | :06:48. | |
today. Anderson, scooping it out. He will put in the for the corner. | :06:49. | :06:54. | |
Whitehead has captured the rebound and scored. It does not matter who | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
it came off, if it came off a Catalan player, it was going | :07:00. | :07:03. | |
backwards anyway. The referde pointing the finger. And it is the | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
ex`Bradford combination, Leon Pryce with a kiss and Whitehead whth the | :07:09. | :07:10. | |
finish. Powell. Smith. And still thdy look | :07:11. | :07:27. | |
left here. The former London man has put down 20 metres out. Wig`n are | :07:28. | :07:36. | |
looking to step it up. And Latty Bowen, magical. Levelling things up | :07:37. | :07:51. | |
again for Wigan. His form in the middle part of the season h`s been | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
great and another try for the Australian full`back. Away from the | :07:56. | :08:04. | |
dummy half area. A little skip and a hop by Williams. Just threatening | :08:05. | :08:07. | |
that Catalan line. They had to recover quickly. Smith is qtickly | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
out again. Now they have got the numbers. He might score himself | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
What his opposite number, Josh Charnley, that is his 11th try in | :08:19. | :08:25. | |
his last five games. He is ` prodigious try scorer and hhs form | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
continues. And Wigan have got the lead. Charnley is the scorer. | :08:31. | :08:40. | |
That is a good carry and a good drive by Taylor. Still going here. | :08:41. | :08:50. | |
Taking it to the halfway line, very nearly. Joining in again. | :08:51. | :08:57. | |
Back to Berlin and he is brtshing away and scoring his second try of | :08:58. | :09:06. | |
the night. The movement frol Matty Bowen was impressive. Setting things | :09:07. | :09:11. | |
up in the first place. And there he was in support as well. Finhshing | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
from the Josh Charnley pass. Wigan are in control. Smith. Charnley | :09:17. | :09:25. | |
Looking back on the inside. That does not look too good. Vincent | :09:26. | :09:34. | |
Duport. And Josh Charnley is suffering. The referee is stopping | :09:35. | :09:41. | |
things here. That was horrible. It looks to arable. `` terribld. They | :09:42. | :09:47. | |
are clearly not happy. And ht is looks to arable. `` terribld. They | :09:48. | :09:50. | |
are clearly not happy. And ht going to be a yellow card for Vincent | :09:51. | :09:55. | |
Duport. And off he goes for ten minutes. Early in the second half, | :09:56. | :09:58. | |
he will need a recovery timd has well. | :09:59. | :10:00. | |
minutes. Early in the second half, he will need Here is Willial. The | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
French seem to be losing thd head a little bit. More I is out qtickly. | :10:06. | :10:13. | |
Swinging from Garcia. Just ` rash of indiscipline from the French side at | :10:14. | :10:19. | |
the start of this second`half. Vincent Duport is already in the | :10:20. | :10:21. | |
bin. Tracking back to the middle. John | :10:22. | :10:47. | |
Bateman. Still pushing hard. It is Williams. Almost intercepted. It is | :10:48. | :10:58. | |
back to another six tackles. The referee says play on. Look who is | :10:59. | :11:08. | |
there to score, Scott Taylor. The French, losing their discipline | :11:09. | :11:17. | |
Wooden keeping theirs. Very nearly an interception chance. When the | :11:18. | :11:27. | |
ball goes to ground, Wigan keep it alive and Scott Taylor to fhnish. | :11:28. | :11:35. | |
Good hands again here. It is a good clearing run bx Wigan. | :11:36. | :11:56. | |
Coming all the way left. He gets it away. Here is an opportunitx for | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
Burgess, who puts his foot down Even at this stage, with 30 minutes | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
left, Wigan are in complete control. The French only have | :12:07. | :12:14. | |
themselves to blame in terms of their lack of discipline. They are | :12:15. | :12:21. | |
down in numbers and it is bdginning to show badly here. Burgess with | :12:22. | :12:23. | |
another Wigan tried. Crosby is obviously not happy with | :12:24. | :12:49. | |
the impact that was made on him Let's have a look at this. Puite | :12:50. | :12:51. | |
clearly a shoulder charge. Here is Crosby. He is pushing his | :12:52. | :13:18. | |
way through again here. Matty Smith is going to go for a | :13:19. | :13:37. | |
drop goal and he looks as though he has got it, although the referee | :13:38. | :13:49. | |
says no. I think the refered just forgot the rules there for ` | :13:50. | :13:51. | |
moment. One point is given. A last chance to gain some poise. | :13:52. | :14:09. | |
Good hands. This will be a finish. A little bit of consolation at the | :14:10. | :14:14. | |
end. But not much. They lost their heads. Wigan found a winning | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
mentality. Put into context how good this win | :14:19. | :14:31. | |
was. It's a tough place to go. Only two sides have gone there this year | :14:32. | :14:34. | |
and got a win. It's a great result for them. There are lots of things | :14:35. | :14:41. | |
to take into account, the wdather, the atmosphere. I think Cat`lan | :14:42. | :14:50. | |
Dragons are the best at plaxing that sort of cauldron. Wayne seels to | :14:51. | :14:57. | |
love these kinds of games, these big encounters. He will have enjoyed | :14:58. | :15:02. | |
this. You will. That is how he builds the game. He challenges his | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
players to rise to the occasion Wigan kept their head and C`talan | :15:08. | :15:14. | |
Dragons went the opposite w`y. A few of the French players lost their | :15:15. | :15:19. | |
heads. Wigan played better. You touched on it there. They crossed | :15:20. | :15:27. | |
the line, the coach admitted it I think Wigan are a really aggressive | :15:28. | :15:31. | |
team. When you play against Wigan, you know you are in for a physical | :15:32. | :15:42. | |
game. This one is probably the worst of the bunch, late and high. It is | :15:43. | :15:49. | |
infectious and sometimes. The French have got a reputation for doing | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
things like that. Once one starts doing it, they think it is ` green | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
light for them all to do. It needs addressing but it has been going on | :15:59. | :16:08. | |
for a while. But do you get... Wigan have a reputation of being one of | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
the best sides, if not the best in the competition. | :16:14. | :16:14. | |
have a reputation of being one of the best sides, if not the Dvery | :16:15. | :16:16. | |
team that plays against Wig`n up their game. That is where you see | :16:17. | :16:31. | |
the fireworks. Every rugby league game is physical and aggressive | :16:32. | :16:39. | |
these days. Three or four of those challenges which were deemed to have | :16:40. | :16:43. | |
been illegal could have been timed right. Then we wouldn't be talking | :16:44. | :16:50. | |
about it. I would be cautiots not to sanitise the game. We all enjoyed | :16:51. | :16:56. | |
the aggressive side game. I do, anyway. Amidst the aggression, there | :16:57. | :17:05. | |
was some fabulous stuff. Matty Bowen in particular, he seems to have | :17:06. | :17:10. | |
developed into the full`back role. He has. It took awhile. The... He | :17:11. | :17:22. | |
was a classy player in Australia. He has made this his own and h`s scored | :17:23. | :17:27. | |
some fantastic tries. He has expressed his desire to stax. Wigan | :17:28. | :17:34. | |
would be mad not to keep his services. He looks a tough guy to | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
stop. He is really challenghng in broken field. It's difficult to play | :17:39. | :17:50. | |
full`back in a new team. Yot got to know every single player th`t the | :17:51. | :17:54. | |
coach calls. You've got to know everything about the opposition | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
players who are going to kick the ball at you. Then you have got to | :17:59. | :18:01. | |
organise your two winners and the defensive line. You need to | :18:02. | :18:04. | |
understand the entire club structure. To do that, and bring a | :18:05. | :18:07. | |
structure. To do that, and bring family to Wigan from North | :18:08. | :18:10. | |
Queensland, I think it's gohng to take time. He seems to have settled | :18:11. | :18:19. | |
in now. That's official. Who else was celebrating after around 20 | :18:20. | :18:27. | |
The Giants are in the jungld but can Huddersfield catch up with | :18:28. | :18:36. | |
Castleford? Home, James. Co`ch Webster looks for another whn in | :18:37. | :18:42. | |
Wakefield. They take on witness And first impressions, Mason Brown on | :18:43. | :18:50. | |
finding his feet in the supdr league spotlight. | :18:51. | :18:56. | |
Saint Helens started the wedkend at the top of the table. A fortnight | :18:57. | :19:02. | |
ago, they were celebrating ` win over Wigan. They followed that up | :19:03. | :19:07. | |
with what hits coach called an unacceptable display last wdek. | :19:08. | :19:13. | |
For 60 minutes of the game, they were clinical, good with thd ball | :19:14. | :19:22. | |
and scored some great tries. Then, for the last 20 minutes, | :19:23. | :19:24. | |
and scored some great tries. Then, for the last it was disappohnting. | :19:25. | :19:30. | |
This was a classic. I thought it was... I watched this back hn my | :19:31. | :19:42. | |
kitchen the day after. He is not blessed with place but what he makes | :19:43. | :19:47. | |
up for his intelligence. He has been fantastic since he went back to | :19:48. | :19:51. | |
full`back. He deserves a lot of credit. He has produced somd great | :19:52. | :20:03. | |
form. The frustrating thing for us would be the first half werd | :20:04. | :20:07. | |
attacked very well. We didn't have to do a great deal of defending the | :20:08. | :20:13. | |
stuff we were not put under too much pressure by Bradford. In thd last 20 | :20:14. | :20:17. | |
minutes, we were scrutinised a little more and didn't come up too | :20:18. | :20:22. | |
well. Bradford scored some good tries. We were not too happx with | :20:23. | :20:29. | |
how we played. When you look back at last week, you've been on the back | :20:30. | :20:33. | |
end of some big losses. When you look back on those games, and you | :20:34. | :20:41. | |
see where it went wrong? Not really, and that's important to point out. | :20:42. | :20:46. | |
In the build`up to games, to get a sense you are going to play poorly, | :20:47. | :20:50. | |
you can almost justified or you know it is going to come. In the | :20:51. | :20:54. | |
performances we played poorly, it has been no sense of it comhng. | :20:55. | :20:58. | |
We've trained well in the wdek. In all honesty, what we've dond is come | :20:59. | :21:04. | |
up against two or three teals who have played their best performances | :21:05. | :21:11. | |
of the year against us. It's a combination of the two. Is he | :21:12. | :21:21. | |
looking for some character, some spirit to build on for next season? | :21:22. | :21:27. | |
Some teen spirit, yes. It w`s fantastic to score 24 points away at | :21:28. | :21:32. | |
Saints. He is building for next year. He is trying to get players | :21:33. | :21:39. | |
playing with a smile on thehr face again. They can put some good | :21:40. | :21:43. | |
performances between now at the end of the season, it will be great for | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
the year after. It is tough for them. It has been a tough old | :21:49. | :21:56. | |
season. Is he looking for youngsters coming through? Yes, I think so If | :21:57. | :22:04. | |
you look at the stronger te`ms in the super league, they've always got | :22:05. | :22:09. | |
quality youngsters. You do need to look at the youth. You need to try | :22:10. | :22:14. | |
and retain as many of the ctrrent players as possible. He knew what he | :22:15. | :22:26. | |
was taking off. The feel`good factor that embraced Salford at thd start | :22:27. | :22:29. | |
of the season has returned, thanks in part to a few fresh placds. Mason | :22:30. | :22:36. | |
Brown made an interesting ddbut last week. He is loving life with the Red | :22:37. | :22:39. | |
Devils. It was good to get a try my debut. I | :22:40. | :23:03. | |
run than aside and had enough pace to get away from everyone. Ht was | :23:04. | :23:13. | |
nice to win as well. Here comes the man on debut, Mason Brown. Lovely | :23:14. | :23:23. | |
footwork. Yeah, I'm enjoying it It's a big difference from London. | :23:24. | :23:28. | |
It's much more intense. There are more experienced players around me | :23:29. | :23:34. | |
so there is a lot to learn. There are a lot of young players hn London | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
this year. I got the opporttnity to play. | :23:39. | :24:05. | |
Southeast. My friend was pl`ying at college. And I was off season. I | :24:06. | :24:12. | |
just turned up with him to the trial. I had not played rugby league | :24:13. | :24:16. | |
before. I got into the squad and played in the tournament and I got | :24:17. | :24:20. | |
into the student squad. And from there I looked into the Broncos open | :24:21. | :24:27. | |
trial. The last couple of g`mes of last year were probably the best. My | :24:28. | :24:32. | |
debut, I scored on my first game and got a hat`trick in the second. I | :24:33. | :24:37. | |
finished from the bottom, actually. Giving Salford the wooden spoon 11 | :24:38. | :24:43. | |
tries and Kate Brown had moved to Salford failed to have the Broncos | :24:44. | :24:49. | |
register a win. Became closdr, winning a few games. But lost in the | :24:50. | :24:56. | |
last few minutes. I enjoyed coming here. It was good. He changdd a lot | :24:57. | :25:01. | |
of things on and off the fidld. They have got a good team, London. And it | :25:02. | :25:07. | |
is my home club. It was a bhg decision to move. But no regrets. | :25:08. | :25:16. | |
How has he settled in, do you think? Very well. We saw on his debut with | :25:17. | :25:22. | |
a great try. He is one of those players that is just effortless It | :25:23. | :25:24. | |
does not look like he is running fast. But he is very quick `nd very | :25:25. | :25:31. | |
athletic. He has got a lot to learn about rugby league. He is vdry green | :25:32. | :25:34. | |
but I think he will develop at Salford and will be a great | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
addition. Salford looking for back`to`back super league whns for | :25:40. | :25:42. | |
the first time since the opdning couple games of the season. Hull FC | :25:43. | :25:47. | |
on Saturday. No Kevin Locke for you but Rangi Chase catching thd eye. He | :25:48. | :25:53. | |
played particularly well in this game. Going back to Kevin, going | :25:54. | :26:00. | |
against Huddersfield, he was outstanding. The | :26:01. | :26:40. | |
ASH we probably. `` we prob`bly We would have done anything for any | :26:41. | :26:45. | |
kind of win before but it is great that we are in the position where we | :26:46. | :26:46. | |
can be critical of the coach will take a while to really | :26:47. | :28:05. | |
stamp his way of coaching on. It has taken a while with the amount of | :28:06. | :28:09. | |
turnovers, it was always gohng to take a bit of time. It took longer | :28:10. | :28:12. | |
than we thought and would h`ve hoped. But hopefully now with a | :28:13. | :28:17. | |
couple of wins in a couple of games, we hope to kick on. The | :28:18. | :28:22. | |
important one for me was th`t one had Castleford. That was a game that | :28:23. | :28:26. | |
we could and should have won. It lifted the confidence. Compdting | :28:27. | :28:31. | |
against the top sides. Sincd then we have got a couple from a cotple He | :28:32. | :28:35. | |
has been a shining light for Hull this season. Yes, he is one of those | :28:36. | :28:41. | |
players that gets them going forward. I think the issue hs when | :28:42. | :28:45. | |
they are going forward and playing quickly and the game is spedding up, | :28:46. | :28:49. | |
it is then scoring points, looking for and against, the big problem is | :28:50. | :28:55. | |
scoring points. I guess that is why they brought Leon Pryce and Sneyd | :28:56. | :29:03. | |
win. You touch the ball a lot and to be creative and have vision, Hull do | :29:04. | :29:06. | |
a lot of the hard work but they struggle in the last third of the | :29:07. | :29:11. | |
field. They need to score points and to win the contest you need points. | :29:12. | :29:15. | |
What is promising for Lee R`dford is actually in defence they ard really | :29:16. | :29:19. | |
solid. It is credit to Salford how much they have scored in thd game. | :29:20. | :29:23. | |
And Rangi Chase is holding `ll the strings and he has been for the past | :29:24. | :29:27. | |
few weeks. That win. At mid London would be relegated if they were | :29:28. | :29:32. | |
defeated at Warrington. `` that win meant London would be releg`ted It | :29:33. | :29:39. | |
was somewhat predictable, w`sn't it? Yes, Warrington are in absolute | :29:40. | :29:43. | |
white hot form and of coursd always going to be a struggle for ` side | :29:44. | :29:46. | |
conceding almost 900 points this year. Going to a ground where the | :29:47. | :29:52. | |
scoring in team, to get a rdsult, it was difficult. Of his side `nd he | :29:53. | :30:00. | |
said it was worst performance that they had that for them... | :30:01. | :30:12. | |
The dogs from Joel Monaghan kicking inside. What have you used to | :30:13. | :30:26. | |
them all of the eye. Is out there again | :30:27. | :30:39. | |
people are asking when it is bubble going to burst but I do not think | :30:40. | :30:47. | |
that it is going to burst. They act three tries. You've even many doing | :30:48. | :30:50. | |
that. They have done the going well. And | :30:51. | :31:02. | |
he had to go one better and get for. I think they are the best tdam in | :31:03. | :31:08. | |
the competition. They are bding ruthless. When they get thehr noses | :31:09. | :31:12. | |
in front. They are ruthless. They keep applying pressure. And they are | :31:13. | :31:19. | |
relentless. Unfortunately it was London that were at the end of a | :31:20. | :31:23. | |
hiding. But it could have bden anybody. They have got such speed | :31:24. | :31:31. | |
when they are on a roll. Th`t is what we talk about. They just keep | :31:32. | :31:37. | |
the pressure on. I played against London, I think it was a cotple of | :31:38. | :31:43. | |
years ago. It is good to sed Paul back. , yes, and I remember we | :31:44. | :31:49. | |
played London and we were going a lot about them and they scored more | :31:50. | :31:56. | |
than 80 points. It can happdns. Especially at home. Jet took over he | :31:57. | :32:04. | |
was planning already for relegation. Maybe get back to scratch and | :32:05. | :32:08. | |
starting again could do best thing. They seem to be really planning | :32:09. | :32:14. | |
Without a doubt. They have probably got the weakest squad in Colpany | :32:15. | :32:21. | |
macro. They goes to compete. I think it was a tough task for anybody at | :32:22. | :32:30. | |
London, it is all about performance. It is not about development as such. | :32:31. | :32:34. | |
To get performance out of this team this year is going to be very | :32:35. | :32:38. | |
difficult. And what you had to look at is the future. Planning to get a | :32:39. | :32:43. | |
future performance out of the team is crucial. London and the | :32:44. | :32:50. | |
south`east is such a big brdeding ground for rugby league now and so | :32:51. | :32:54. | |
many people are playing in that area. We need to maintain that | :32:55. | :32:57. | |
presence. London need to get the edge to the club. And I am sure that | :32:58. | :33:02. | |
is what the planning is all about. Building a squad in the next few | :33:03. | :33:06. | |
years that can perform at the top level. That is what we are leasured | :33:07. | :33:11. | |
on and what will be the difference. Huddersfield at the Jungle on Friday | :33:12. | :33:14. | |
night took on Castleford. It was fought against six. They cotld be | :33:15. | :33:19. | |
level on points with a Giants win. David was watching. | :33:20. | :33:24. | |
COMMENTATOR: They had a gre`t run of results before the unexpectdd hick | :33:25. | :33:31. | |
up against Salford. The opponents have got back wins. They have had | :33:32. | :33:38. | |
got chances of leading this year. It has been an extraordinary sdason so | :33:39. | :33:42. | |
far with a promise of more to come. Castleford have stored Liam Finn to | :33:43. | :33:46. | |
the starting line`up. `` restored. Huddersfield are without Danny | :33:47. | :33:59. | |
Brough. He will be badly missed on this small page. And crisp daily is | :34:00. | :34:04. | |
as hooker. That is unusual. `` this small page. `` Chris Bailey. | :34:05. | :34:10. | |
Well Marshall the Castleford defence. `` well patrolled, the | :34:11. | :34:23. | |
Castleford defence. Shoot to the right the Tigers are just about | :34:24. | :34:33. | |
hanging on here. Well, the signs are that he might have touched ht down, | :34:34. | :34:38. | |
Bailey. The referee wants to have another look. Bailey getting the | :34:39. | :34:44. | |
head down. What he using anxbody has a Shepherd? I do not think that | :34:45. | :34:51. | |
anybody was for the `` was he using anybody shepherding, I do not think | :34:52. | :34:57. | |
so. Risk and it might not bd familiar in the role of `` he might | :34:58. | :35:03. | |
not be familiar in this rold but it is a great effort. Here is Bailey. | :35:04. | :35:17. | |
Robinson's. Sneyd is back to take it. And it is a decent chasd. But he | :35:18. | :35:22. | |
has found a way through. He is inside. Homes on the outsidd. And | :35:23. | :35:30. | |
Oliver Holmes with a very special finish to a very special trx. I am | :35:31. | :35:40. | |
not sure that he was expecthng to be the in a try scoring position. | :35:41. | :35:45. | |
Ablett `` Sneyd came dashing through and Oliver Holmes showed a very | :35:46. | :35:50. | |
clean pair of heels to get hnside. Here is Clark. Across the lhne they | :35:51. | :36:00. | |
go again. And he has intercdpted the past, Cudjoe. And he will go the | :36:01. | :36:07. | |
distance. No doubt about th`t, from the moment that he took that | :36:08. | :36:13. | |
interception. It is against the run of play. Liam Finn would have had a | :36:14. | :36:19. | |
sinking feeling when he delhvered that pass. Because he was stddenly | :36:20. | :36:28. | |
looming large, Cudjoe. That will lead again here. `` Huddersfield are | :36:29. | :36:34. | |
establishing a comfortable lead again here. | :36:35. | :36:39. | |
Here is Clark battering ram effortful | :36:40. | :37:06. | |
entered in a brick wall to keep them from coming in here. Fly through. | :37:07. | :37:18. | |
Fog, if back in does this come from the Huddersfield | :37:19. | :37:43. | |
player? I think that it does. That was the suspicion of the referee. | :37:44. | :37:52. | |
And right on half`time, Castleford take the lead. Well, the tiling is | :37:53. | :38:03. | |
absolutely perfect. The cakd was spot`on. `` kick. Here is Mhlner. | :38:04. | :38:28. | |
And I think he is in. Yes, he is. So, a try just before the break | :38:29. | :38:39. | |
Now, another just after. Castleford have tended right around. ` turned | :38:40. | :38:45. | |
it right around. They break down the middle. Milner | :38:46. | :39:07. | |
is going to be felled. Castleford have momentum working in thdir | :39:08. | :39:10. | |
favour again. It's been a lhghtning start to the second half. Dhxon | :39:11. | :39:21. | |
Perfection again! Dixon had to catch, twist and turn. It ndeded a | :39:22. | :39:27. | |
kick on a sixpence in the fhrst place. | :39:28. | :39:59. | |
try of the night. It was made easy for Castleford. | :40:00. | :40:34. | |
often has that combination delivered the goods? Maybe there is a little | :40:35. | :40:43. | |
bit of hope for Huddersfield. They have given an opportunity. | :40:44. | :41:44. | |
And he is doing superbly well here. He is still going. Here he comes. | :41:45. | :41:52. | |
And he is down the touchlind. An absolutely sensational try. And | :41:53. | :41:57. | |
Huddersfield are back within touching distance. But hang on. | :41:58. | :42:05. | |
Richard Silverwood wants to have a look at it again. As he got his foot | :42:06. | :42:12. | |
in touch? Oh, he has done. Just That right foot was just on the | :42:13. | :42:18. | |
whitewash. And Castleford whll survive the scare. How big ` moment | :42:19. | :42:24. | |
might that proved to be in this game? | :42:25. | :42:37. | |
Mariano, oh, my word. He is still going here. He was like a htman | :42:38. | :42:50. | |
wrecking ball. Scoring a trx which surely now settles the nervds of | :42:51. | :42:54. | |
Castleford and wins them wh`t has been a dramatic game. The rdferee's | :42:55. | :43:02. | |
view of one man on a destruction route to the try line. Frankie | :43:03. | :43:10. | |
Mariano. Leaving bodies in his wake and scoring the try. Here is Bailey. | :43:11. | :43:20. | |
Robinson. Crabtree. Mariano taking a knock. And he is carrying on! And | :43:21. | :43:25. | |
Huddersfield are carrying on. They have not given up just yet. There | :43:26. | :43:32. | |
are still eight minutes left to play. This is going over, jtst eight | :43:33. | :43:37. | |
points in it. Crabtree has given them an escape route here. Ht is | :43:38. | :43:45. | |
Clark. Tantalising run by D`rrell Clarke. Back to thin. With ` pass | :43:46. | :43:57. | |
and here goes Millington. And now there are no gaps. Castleford are | :43:58. | :44:00. | |
going to win. They have survived a couple of scares, provided by the | :44:01. | :44:07. | |
spirit of Huddersfield. Castleford will stay within touching dhstance | :44:08. | :44:10. | |
of the top spot with 20 rounds played. | :44:11. | :44:17. | |
The coach particularly happx. What did you think? I thought it was a | :44:18. | :44:25. | |
fair result. They got a few players out. Having a bit of a wobble at the | :44:26. | :44:30. | |
moment. It is hard to be at your best all year. They are probably | :44:31. | :44:35. | |
struggling at the moment. On the flip side they scored some very good | :44:36. | :44:39. | |
tries. A tough place to go `nd get the win. I thought it was a fair | :44:40. | :44:44. | |
result. Huddersfield will wdll come the players back soon. And H am sure | :44:45. | :44:49. | |
we will see eight event sidd next week. Even with the win thex did not | :44:50. | :44:55. | |
seem happy with the form. They have been inconsistent this year. We talk | :44:56. | :45:01. | |
about the top five teams fighting it out to see who will take a | :45:02. | :45:04. | |
stranglehold. I think Huddersfield have just been trying to find a way | :45:05. | :45:09. | |
to string performances together Again, speaking about the bdst teams | :45:10. | :45:13. | |
in rugby league across the world, they defend well. They concdded 44 | :45:14. | :45:19. | |
against Castleford. They have got a big issue in defence. Again, | :45:20. | :45:23. | |
consistency with the defencd. When Danny Brough is playing and they | :45:24. | :45:28. | |
have got the players in the team they are a threat. They can move it | :45:29. | :45:31. | |
to Ferris. They have got an attacking threat with Cudjod. And | :45:32. | :45:38. | |
they have got the big men and a few of the other big guys dynamhc in the | :45:39. | :45:41. | |
middle. They are quite thre`tening with the ball. They have struggled | :45:42. | :45:46. | |
in defence. Teams are coming at them. They finished top of the | :45:47. | :45:50. | |
league last year. Being on the top of the file and having everx team | :45:51. | :45:54. | |
chasing you is different to creeping up on the radar. That is wh`t they | :45:55. | :45:59. | |
have had to deal with. You talk about Chris Hill taking to ht like a | :46:00. | :46:04. | |
duck to water and so has Li`m Finn. They said after the game th`t he was | :46:05. | :46:09. | |
actually dropped last week but he showed what he was made of this | :46:10. | :46:13. | |
week. Sometimes you need adversity to get back up and show what you are | :46:14. | :46:18. | |
capable of. If that was the case, getting dropped last week, he made | :46:19. | :46:23. | |
himself known this week. Thdy have been playing very well as a team. | :46:24. | :46:27. | |
There is not one player that has been the standout. They havd been | :46:28. | :46:32. | |
fantastic as a team unit. Pdople were waiting for him to fall off. | :46:33. | :46:37. | |
But they have not done that. They have kept improving. They are | :46:38. | :46:42. | |
traditionally one of the strong clubs and they have done well this | :46:43. | :46:47. | |
year. And they are well coached and they have done great. Wakefheld have | :46:48. | :46:52. | |
been flying since James Webster was appointed head coach. Four games | :46:53. | :46:56. | |
without the. Ending any fears of a chin and they had a chance on | :46:57. | :47:00. | |
Thursday to get within a cotple of points of the play`off placds when | :47:01. | :47:04. | |
Widnes were in town. The Wildcats had the luggage for the conpuest but | :47:05. | :47:15. | |
Wigan made the better start here. COMMENTATOR It is on again. And it | :47:16. | :47:19. | |
looks like Tickle is going to crash on. And he has indeed. First points | :47:20. | :47:22. | |
go the way of the Vikings. The defence has finally been broken. | :47:23. | :47:39. | |
Oh and he has missed. McShane. To his right. Looping pass. And it has | :47:40. | :47:46. | |
been picked off by the Vikings. Rob on their own 20 metre line down the | :47:47. | :47:52. | |
left`hand side. Has he got the legs to get in at the corner? Trx to get | :47:53. | :47:57. | |
back and he has made the tackle as well. Five metres short of the try | :47:58. | :48:01. | |
line. A very good effort. They have got to come forward. 20 metres away. | :48:02. | :48:10. | |
And they have lost the ball and the Wildcats have picked it up. To his | :48:11. | :48:16. | |
left. Wakefield looking to break out here. And he takes the tackle 2 | :48:17. | :48:30. | |
metres away. Trying to get back to his feet. McShane to his right. Tim | :48:31. | :48:38. | |
Smith with a dummy kick through And he's going to be tackled a couple of | :48:39. | :48:43. | |
metres from the line. Just too slow. I am not blaming him for it | :48:44. | :48:47. | |
because clearly he picked up an injury in the tackle here. The ball | :48:48. | :48:56. | |
has gone loose. And the viddo reference see if Wakefield have | :48:57. | :49:04. | |
scored. And Wakefield, going for the ball, almost simultaneous on the big | :49:05. | :49:07. | |
screen. But as I understand it that will be a try. | :49:08. | :49:13. | |
Here is McShane. Smith. On `gain. To the left of the post! It is going to | :49:14. | :49:28. | |
go to the video referee. Just signed a new deal this week for thd | :49:29. | :49:31. | |
Wildcats. Looking to put thdm in front by 10`4. | :49:32. | :49:40. | |
The converted try meant that they had to a pile of March at to give | :49:41. | :49:47. | |
the Vikings hope. Down the right`hand side, hdading | :49:48. | :49:57. | |
towards the goal area. As hd dealt with it? Scoring in the corner. It | :49:58. | :50:04. | |
is going upstairs. If he has got that down, he has made a big | :50:05. | :50:07. | |
mistake. CROWD CHEERS... They had more | :50:08. | :50:18. | |
chances but they could not get past the stubborn defence. Leaving Denis | :50:19. | :50:22. | |
Betts the frustrated after the game. Vikings with just one win ott of | :50:23. | :50:29. | |
eight. The Wildcats continudd the remarkable transformation under | :50:30. | :50:33. | |
James Webster. Unbeaten run now extended to five games with a place | :50:34. | :50:34. | |
in the play`offs a real possibility. I think James Webster gets the prize | :50:35. | :50:44. | |
for the best facial expresshon for a coat. It has been a case of looking | :50:45. | :50:52. | |
up at not looking down. Is that the thing, being positive? I thhnk that | :50:53. | :50:57. | |
is the case. It is amazing what it does for your confidence, whnning. | :50:58. | :51:01. | |
You seem to have a knock`on effect. They have got momentum at the | :51:02. | :51:07. | |
moment. Widnes on the flip side they are on a downward spir`l. I do | :51:08. | :51:11. | |
not think that it was a gre`t spectacle. It was a couple of teams | :51:12. | :51:16. | |
desperate for the win. And Wakefield have shown that when you have got a | :51:17. | :51:22. | |
bit of form behind you, luck tends to go for you and they had some | :51:23. | :51:27. | |
luck. They have had a fantastic run. They have got tough fixtures coming | :51:28. | :51:30. | |
up. Catalan away, Warrington, Huddersfield, and then Salford. That | :51:31. | :51:35. | |
will be a real test for the play`offs. If they want to do | :51:36. | :51:39. | |
anything this year, they ard going to have to win those games. They | :51:40. | :51:44. | |
will have two the playing mtch better teams than the peopld they | :51:45. | :51:47. | |
have missed in the play`offs. One of the big things has been Tim Smith. I | :51:48. | :51:52. | |
think Webster has come and done a good job. He did say I'm lucky. I | :51:53. | :51:58. | |
spoke to Richard as well. When you have got a player that has been | :51:59. | :52:01. | |
comfortable and playing verx well. To long time, so well. And to come | :52:02. | :52:07. | |
back he slotted straight back in and I think that they are threatening | :52:08. | :52:10. | |
team with more direction. More composed. It was a low scorhng game | :52:11. | :52:17. | |
but Tim Smith has made a telling contribution Wakefield play well. | :52:18. | :52:23. | |
What Boro back on the field for the first time since April. Kevhn | :52:24. | :52:25. | |
Sinfield back as well. `` Rob Burrow. | :52:26. | :53:09. | |
Having these players, what they have got is crucial. It gives | :53:10. | :54:30. | |
Warrington are the only movdrs, going up on points difference. | :54:31. | :54:55. | |
Wakefield climbing up above Hull. London will be relegated if they | :54:56. | :54:59. | |
lose against Huddersfield on Sunday. The highlight of around 21 with a | :55:00. | :55:05. | |
couple of big derby matches, Leeds and Castleford and Warrington and | :55:06. | :55:08. | |

really good for business and it puts people on seats. It has been | :55:36. | :56:24. | |
discussed and it will be tested in the next few weeks with Kevhn Locke | :56:25. | :56:30. | |
and the others. What happendd was that the clubs have had a look at it | :56:31. | :56:36. | |
twice. There is an interest in a marquee player rule but thex do not | :56:37. | :56:40. | |
want to sacrifice financial sustainability. We have signed a | :56:41. | :56:45. | |
deal which brings more monex to the clubs than they have had before | :56:46. | :56:48. | |
They want to make sure sustainability is secured bdfore | :56:49. | :56:51. | |
they think about introducing a marquee player rule which could | :56:52. | :56:58. | |
increase player payments. Are you for or against a marquee pl`yer I | :56:59. | :57:03. | |
am forth. I grew up in the Super League with the likes of Adrian and | :57:04. | :57:10. | |
Johnston, they are genuine internationals that come ovdr and | :57:11. | :57:14. | |
ply their trade. It was I think great for the sport. In the current | :57:15. | :57:19. | |
climate we cannot afford to bring the players over but with this we | :57:20. | :57:23. | |
can afford to bring players into internationals and I think ht will | :57:24. | :57:28. | |
be great for the game. Your chairman is in favour and yours is against | :57:29. | :57:33. | |
it. What do you think? The heart sides to every argument. Is there a | :57:34. | :57:36. | |
commercial argument for bringing in star players and more pounds and | :57:37. | :57:42. | |
pence spent in the game? I think the jury is out. You want your services | :57:43. | :57:46. | |
to be rewarded and the playdr services to be rewarded. Thd salary | :57:47. | :57:51. | |
cap came for a couple of re`sons. To insure fair distribution of talent. | :57:52. | :57:57. | |
So no one team could cause over the best like Wigan in the 1990s and to | :57:58. | :58:02. | |
ensure that clubs do not get into strife and spends too much. With the | :58:03. | :58:07. | |
salary cap they have still got themselves into financial problems. | :58:08. | :58:11. | |
I think there is an argument for, let's just wait and underst`nd how | :58:12. | :58:17. | |
the money is going to settld with the clubs, the TV money. And there | :58:18. | :58:24. | |
needs to be a look at the s`lary cap in the following years. I do not | :58:25. | :58:28. | |
know if something like this quickly is the right thing. I think it needs | :58:29. | :58:32. | |
to be looked at. We need to keep evolving. I think the tempt`tion for | :58:33. | :58:37. | |
players has never been greater to leave this competition. To go to the | :58:38. | :58:42. | |
NRL and rugby union and that is the honest answer. We need to look at | :58:43. | :58:46. | |
