    Not the kinda final the struggling Sport will have hoped for. It's going to struggle to get new eyes interested.

    Enjoyed it . Wigan’s defence is impressive and Rovers gave it a good go

    I wonder how the average professional footballer would cope with the physicality of Rugby League.

    Good close game,Wigan nullified Rovers. I'd love to see some of the footballers who fall over easily playing it.

    I've got no time for Hull Kingston, for obvious reasons of course lol.
    But my main thought tonight is just how sick I am of Wigan RL, winning almost everything this year, yet again!.
    In fact, didn't they even nearly win the footy Euros this summer, and the Cricket World cup thing as well. :rolleyes:

    I went to the last one and watched this one on tele. I attended the second worse one in history….this one tonight was the worse. Hull KR were embarrassing going forward.

    Wigan tackled them out of the game,but Rovers kicking game was abysmal.

    Didn’t help Lewis looked fearful of doing anything. You’re right, Wigan defended extremely well as soon as KR entered the final third. Two years on the bounce now Wigan have tactically done a number in the biggest English rugby league game.

    I haven't seen yesterday's game but i'm struggling to believe it was worse than the last one I was at which was 2018.
