We're getting the cherry and white, the dragons, all in white, Trim with black and amber. And Wigan will have kick off in this first star, Paris Smith, who has the ball on the kicking team. Marcus Griffiths is the referee, Jack Smith, the video referee. So wherever you are, thank you for joining us as always. I'll strap yourselves in because this could be a very special night indeed in the history of our great club. Paris Smith now is tying his bootlaces, 80 minutes away from legally the shield glory. Let's do it for Billy. Let's lift that shield tonight. And we will keep you a brass to what is going on over a AMC headingly stadium. We are underway. Huge draw goes up. Collect it downfield. And Catalan will bring the ball up for the first hit up.

Wigan into them straight away. The dragons got a very up and down season haven't they? A lot of players coming and going. Well, unless you win tonight, Salusa finishing up over this season. Well, that's an incredible achievement. Just being too much change hasn't they down in Perpinyl. Lost a lot of big players. Of course, Steve McNamara going John Cartwright at the hell now. Some old stages still going strong. And the likes of remain Navarat former Wigan Warrior. Julie Busque Goudemont and Ben Garcia, who will be the new sporting director of Catalan dragons next season. And that's a good one. Busque is a knock on. Wasn't the best pastor in there. No, they're going to complete Master Catalan to be on my son. That was the fifth tackle. Yeah, they are challenging it, which is a very early challenge.

Seven seconds. Whether it was a wrestle on the ground and that's why it came out, but they did get in a complete Master. We've done to pick it up off the ground. And then we've done a lot of French on him. Yeah, it's a look. Question whether it's a knock on. I don't know whether the knock on's come from when he tried to pick it up. Don't look like it. That looks okay to me. Yeah, but then it's this big. Yeah, he lost it. Even if French has stripped that, it's one and one. So the only real reason that that could come around is if it dreamed that French has stripped it forward for a knock on himself, but I just think he'd lost that. I can't see French's hands don't look any way near that. Fancy burning your challenge after 67 seconds. This turns out to be what we're thinking might. Jack Smith relatively quick. Oh, challenge successful. So I can only assume what you said. The stripteep forward.

Yeah, fair enough. Maybe I'll not read. I mean, that was a better replay than what we got when the Rockett and Roll and it was a great deal. I mean, you can't even look at him rolling it. It was rubbish. Yeah. And then they give just a straight replay. And you actually see it quite clearly. So Catalan. Get another set. But they're still in the road half. Yes, they are. This is Nick Cottrich. I believe he's absolutely. Leeds right now. Next season. Alan Kearins it. Yes. What a season. A.K. has had. He gets our listen live vote for player of the season. Wait, feel the gunsley. Happily for no wait, feel. Wiki. Now that he is. Busca. Up to the halfway line. T. Salt. In a dummy half. This is Josh Allen. Just shy. The 14 side the Wiggen half. T. Salt. Now Lewis Dodd. Flat pass there from the former St. Skull Half. Seems to have found a home at the Dragons.

After that ill-fated move to the NRL. We've seen plenty of those over the years. Kick goes up on the last. Comfortable take for J. Field. It just leaves Nick Cottrich for dead there. I think that was making sense. Oh, was it all you're assuming for this? Made it look a bit silly there. It was well set on the last tackle. But he just ran around it. It's a little steam through. It's a little steppe. Yeah, what a career Tommy making. It's a bit like Percival. Last couple of years been blighted with injury. But he's been a great servant to the sport. I don't know he's trying scoring stats, but I imagine it's pretty impressive. This is Lou Thompson now for Wiggen. Who again has been a model of consistency this year. Last tackle. Comes to Bevan French. Little chip over the top out to that right hand side, which he likes to do. And that was a great kick. Now there. We'll just kept in play there. I think it was Lenny Mark the fallback.

It's another look at this. Yeah, he's well in there. Well, there was another step to be fair. But it's the biggest score strap on the big screen here. We can't really see that. But if you use an ours from the Cibili Boston stem, but the referee was happy. It looked close, I have to say. It did. He collected it well and then he sort of lost his balance. The arms tipped over. Now here is Bousscape now Dodd ball back on the inside. We're saying that must have been going for 40 20 because he didn't need to play it. But yeah, 40 outcat. It was a great kick. Comes now to Olaf side. Yeah, a Spiro B. And the off side. The rough side. Yeah, he's giving it. That is the whistle. Mark as Griffiths the referee. So obviously Joe Schorix isn't playing for sense to know. He's never seen in the same room at the same time. But you called it there. It is a tactic which teams use against Wiggum Freak and isn't it?

It seems. Well, unless the kicker Spiro B. Shem sprint forward to get a mole on Cibili running past him. Yeah, you're not going to get away with it. Wiggum let the ball bounce. Whether they knew it was offside. It was a risky move. But they were on the stage and bounce back into a Catalan Hammond. Now he is K Delis. Another candidate as well. Let us know. You can message this here. The mix. You can message us and let us know who you're listening live player of the season is. Of the regular season. Playing their wayfield ains. Get your names into us. You can message me. Whatever. Let us know who you think. Be interesting. We're going for Adam Kearin. Was Wiggum now 20 meters out. He's on Neil. Again, he would be right up there. Absolutely incredible. And only P as well. It's hard. It's hard. Now then Harry Smith reverses the ball back over to the right hand side. Chip through the line by French.

That's going to have too much gravy on that. Whoa. And Patrick almost goes a overtake over the advertising boards. We've seen a few plays. I think it's a dropout. I think it's a dropout. I think he's had to play it at the last second. It's a look as if he's doing it. He touched it. Just into body. And got visions of who was that poor guy just in Murphy. Yes. 2007 when he vaulted. Oh, I got down. But yeah, it ended up in the ball for the north. The front of it. It was horrible. But it came back on short. He did dropout. It's not going to turn. No. Does now. Oh, bounced. Shall I? He's got the ball there. 10 beta like. Oh, surely. That's a wicket. Didn't go 10. Wait, bounce 10 in the end. But I think he has given the penalty marker. Yes. So this is Wiggins first real attempt right on the trial line. You know, I just don't get. This fad of attempt. And we can never attempt it at a couple of times in recent weeks.

Especially so early on in the game. I mean, really? Many of you have got seconds remaining. The castle I'm playing there was actually. Over the 10, but touched the ball before it went to the 10. He has a foul. Must have heard you. He wants to get that try. No, Neil. The goal left. Smith with the dummy. Beautiful. And he's in. Huge dummy thrown by Harry Smith. And everybody bought it. Too easy. Far too easy. And if that's the sign of things to come, it could be a very long night. For the dragons. Yeah. Quality there from Smith. Everyone takes back seats to go left. He threw the Dumaidio, brought it. And he just went through himself. The essence scored himself since June. Really? Against whole FC. Wow. And nine games ago. Good grief. Passing scored at home since February against Leith. And he's in. He's in. He's in. He's in.

Well, I didn't know that. He seems. I'm amazed at that. Wow. Just seems to be one of those players who scores fairly regularly. But I'm genuinely surprised at that. Well, it's a nice easy start for AK as his little man has come off with his. His boot cleaner. The crucial try. Very late at whole FC. Yes. And June. Again, not home tries since February. But it's a very long night. That's a very long night. I mean, I can't say in June. We've got a nice, nice time for the day in June. Again, not home tries since February. But should chip this over. I'm a Kirin. Four, six, Nell. Kick this. With his heel. We've just cleaned all the clack off his. For instance. For instance, Nell to lose four. Yes. If you're a warranted fan, there's nothing the best please, do you. Well, I don't blame him. Well, no, I can't. You know you paid money you're a season ticket holder. Yeah, but you know you've rather win next week Joe It's whole point. Yeah, I don't serve you back end of season to roll about fitness and energy

Actually more than talent in my opinion and I think when we're gonna have been on That kind of trajectory they've been better often when they have them so Keirin slots that my lovely friend Angela Says Oliver Partington is the player of the season. I wouldn't argue with that There are many to choose from that's what that's how good would be this year Huge dummy from Smith there and at least two dragons defendants bought it completely Huge gap opened up He slithered through it And reached out now from a speedo b-shake Selected by Bevel French I forgot too he's Mickey Mack back tonight in the parish He's on the dragons Coaching stuff is there to see if I can see you down there Anyway, Partington gets it over the 20 this is in December

Big shot going in on him, but it's almost as if he never felt it Never tried to get in he did picking on the wrong bloke there remain This is have up now on the 40 oh Neil Ellis up the middle As he's always doing and again as always Meeters after contact Oh Neil fires it to Smith on this left hand side high kick goes up and That's gathered in by Leo Dela Tour Good clearance certain good defense pushing back up inside their own ten Yeah, it's a good chance from the Trader by Wiggen. Yeah Chase as well the dragon see it strung out to get out of the room to have to say we can shoot predominantly white and sells the Catalan Yeah, they're way kids and I it is a god one. I thought they'd be in the sort of red and gold tonight Or whatever their away kit is I think he used to be that I don't know what it is these days, but yeah It's a bit odd good offload, but so that went back with Shirley. Yes, it did

Look at that. It's a compass because they weren't certainly weren't expecting that was the big fella Not awful to Gordon. There were no need for that really Bousquet was Not expecting that at all. He's T-cell comes to Dodd on the last kick down field Well, kick it is it splits Marshall and failed Marshall gets to it first He will run the ball back up for the Warriors One ten and level up for four four And you have to give it to Liam Marshall out for so long and he's come back and hit the ground running else Nick But it worked that long ago we're saying if Noah stays fit it's yeah, it is funny. That's how ruthless it is Absolutely, and I still step by that. Yeah, no, all right 100% Echoes leave just up to the halfway line Second game in a row in the center. This is J Field now. There's one of his mazy runs

It's not sting Daniel on the other wing tonight after that tremendous performance against lead Smith Towering kick on the last Dara Latour is underneath it gathers it just before He goes over his own tri-line and he sends it back up to the 10 meter line Lot of names. I don't recognize in this excuse me in this dragon. So it's great though It's probably lucky to the future. Yeah a lot of the local boys coming through yeah Because they have a feeder club don't they the peer I think it is a center step or center step Fugeless since tonight. I got one in Cornwall here and one in Macedonia. Well now there's a desperation of every assault Macedonia And that particular person folks for Brad or Neal What the Macedonia. Yes, okay Brad is big in stop here now then down this near side Good offload there as well from Martin now they're gonna score

T-so Well, that's sloppy stuff from Wigan. Well, that is excellent from the dragons down this near side The break Clem on Martha Great fend put someone on his backside The ball back on the inside for the highly rated Hugo T-so A wake up all the fence there and Sember and Smith Locked and come across here on the replay and they just both get Steps and there's a mistackle and just keeping the ball alive It's a lovely counter attack triva. Oh, we can defense there was far too soft Bit of a wake up call that he just gone six nil you think no, that's a being easy night. We got a defend better than that That's not good. Smith and Sember over rabbit. Yes and Marshall with a weak tackle field out done That's just not good defense and that's it Hopefully awake Wigan up that because that was not a

Good try to concede well executed though by the dragons. Yes, they have it in them So kicked to come from Aspiral B. Shea Ten in from touch 20 well 18 meters out on this near side this to level it up at six apiece Little lift of the left knee and then the kick comes in Not the not the prettiest kicking style that's straight through the middle The Trius said for wakefield for anal they get chalked off We'll say it's a six nil on the Okay to penalty for six nil Warren to four to lose for still no score at heading late But Wigan Hegged back Just a little reminder The work is not yet done

Smith with the restart Into that far right hand corner I'll see it and bring this back up dragons captain And his final appearance a long time to be fair. I can remember we can be done up a gut from deep doesn't happen often No, I wouldn't back against it happening again tonight. So can't learn they're gonna have to get near the trial line Well, they have they have the given us a couple of hiding on this ground before I mean the dragons At least one I can remember What's saying that's gonna happen tonight Perish the thought now then played by Busca on the 10 now here is Garcia Boyed by that the dragons last tackle Inside the Wigan half just Dodd with the high kick down the left hand side field pouches it 15 from his own line And that gets it over the 20 Before he's brought down

French in at dummy half now Austin Daniel He's just got bored out there coming I got stew and Tracy now in Slovenia what's going on is it like Baltic night Slovenia Macedonia Like the Eurovision phone contest now then Ellis up to the halfway line Oh Neil Cut out ball to French he brings him field he throws a big dummy gets away from two players and then goes on one of his crab light runs He finds Smith cut out ball to Eccasually on this near side. He can't get away. That was a great tackle by the way From Clem on Marta. This is the last tackle now Smith with the outside of his boot Aspet old B. She always juggling it he juggling he's kept hold of it just Wow Teasing was there That was Lenny Mark thank you pal Lenny Mark and Aspet old B. She looked like twins

Kefalonia as another one. Oh, I love Kefanjan mark. Beautiful place It's this all the holiday makers who don't have kids Yes, I think it is take to school. Yeah That romantic song Slovenia in September Now then Martana again causing issues down this near side Let's go. Oh B. Shea from dummy half kick goes up from Lewis Dodd Field collects it Yeah, poor kick right far too much. I tell it knowing of distance and feel that to run forward, but easy Yeah, he just that mark's out and he just Shrugged off. Actually at the first attempt. We did get him at the second Austin Daniel not seeing him in again. Take side up Yeah, he's coming off his wing A bit bored out there everything's been coming down this side now the big oval appear Echoesly in the clear as he got the legs. He's got field on his shorts and awful pass. These picks up by Smith

Well, I've they got away with that was a flick pass on the inside keep going right hit the ground. Yeah big overlap on here. Oh Neil So that was not the best pass there. The pass was fine Daniel are running front to Keirin So he could have seen the wig and not you know offside. They never got back under trial line So the survivor catalan good break on the left I mean, actually he really put the burners on to get away from the last ditch defended there And it just not just stifled the movie was not clean through If it found fields hands and open the floor till 10 out have a hard yeah, we're gonna got a good chance here Five tackles remaining eight meters out to the left of the posts have hard gets up. Oh Neil now Ellis Straightens up and again great Well, that's a knock on says the referee Well the crowd We're being for something so maybe we'll get a challenge here

Yes, we will Whether that was stripped I can't quite tell on that for just a way going off the the crowd seem to Yeah, strip that it looks too on one to me. So I reckon we'll win that the crowd definitely We're shouting for something coming up to the second quarter and as I've said before 52 tries to 17 we're getting this season in the second quarter. So they want panic here at six six I think a win that because it's two on one Hi, I agree Ugon who go T-Song strips that out and there is a player on the legs of K-Dellis and I think that's a pretty obvious one to me, but Jack Smith will take forever Jack Smith is Jack Smith does my lovely maca thinks that Oliver Partington is the player of the season again. I wouldn't disagree with that. It's a tough one Just say still Neil Miller having the lead pole and still Neil Mill apts that Helen see is the challenge decision

On success. Well, get lost Jack Smith. I thought I I mean my pitpeat is incredulous there and I don't know what I've just seen that I look to very obvious decision But uh There you go It's two on one and he got stripped so I mean Well He's I mean what what more do you want? I mean that is just poor I'm not obvious anyway never mind It is Jack Smith he's my favorite I'm sorry yeah So Frank Maria call of just taking a lead at lead Not incidentally four-0 good grief Well, I did say you never know what he's gonna get with whole FC But here it's far from straight forward 21 minutes remaining in this first half we can six Catalan six It's not Well, I'm not I'm not gonna say I'm not going we've played okay Catalan have played really well

I mean, let's face it. They've got nothing to lose So they can come out and fling it about can't they and that's the worst kind of animal sometimes chip over the top from Dodd sits up nicely off the surface for J feel collects it and then goes like almost got over the uh I got over the 20 eventually Did quite get away there As a would have liked to march up to the 30 Stays on his feet smithing at dummy half Eccasalina down this near side Up towards the 40 Yeah, a lot of the games quite low scoring 10th night Yeah, all convertive is 16. Well, the shy on the line on friends. He gets away gets the offload to partington But he can't get away, but we're gonna make some ground there towards the 40 inside the Catalan half You're gonna shoot out of friends you make sure you hit him chip over the top from Harry Smith It's taken well over his shoulder there by Dorella tour

He then goes on a little bit of a scoop brought down to shy the 20 Now then There's a bit of a feel 10 Lee nil like I said we can They just need to be patient and buy the time and let's see what the interchange brings shortly Because I could say pretty much every game this season where we've won I think the interchange has been a difference looking at that Catalan bench. There's no comparison. Let's be honest. No Absolutely not at all Now there this is Dodd Oh, what's the loose carrot From Josh Allen I think he was thinking about what he was gonna do with it and then just let it go Forfeable was gonna quick yeah kick for a quick second there And it quick to kick set it Just thinking you know if we had that old free play field of French would be absolutely done about I did hate it wasn't a great. No it wasn't

There's been many of them. We still have some In December on the halfway line. He'll kneel down the short side here is Jay field now Little stuttering run It's it over the 40 down this near side. Oh kneel Fire's it into center field to Ellis He finds Smith are going out Costa coast here now here is a K Carp get away though good tackle on him from Dodd now he has Thompson Straighten's it up gets inside the 20 last tackle On the line again dummy half goes left to Smith. He straightens up Field cuts out ball. Echoes Lee Marshall It in the corner I'll say what that's how he smith again Deliberately straightening up and running under line and then pivoting his body He does it so well And that's what opened up the little gap there As I said in the pre-gayby joins Chris Rudlingsky on a hundred

I've already had down, but he's on 13th of all time. So he's gone joint with Chris Rudlingsky on I think it's about 186. I'll check that With one try so Liam Marshall going level with the amount of tries that Lee Chris Rudlingsky got In his Wiggen career He's 183 tries in fact, so you could 13th from the old-time list of Wiggen Triscores And yeah, he's been in good form actually. Yes Marshall I don't love a look at that Yeah, just good hands good hands to the right hand side. Yeah He is 30 30 he'll be 31 next May so he's got a while till he's 31. Yes, so big sunwaltors and big Patrick Maygo Are coming on for big blue Thompson and big Ethan have art Put in a good shift Right nine tries and he's last six matches Lee and Marshall. That's not bad. Is it? That's not bad. Fuzzy still down there. I've in a

Chiesamwich down in the dugout there now. What a tough kick for a K here right off the Touch line But he's want to slot these Here it comes. Oh that is brilliant. That is brilliant That's the full scores elsewhere leads now whole six Lee Neil wake for your 10th talent six or car Neil Warranton four to lose four Some of those games are a bit ahead of our risk as we picked off slightly late 1262 the Warriors Just This first half So maygo and Walters solicitors at all On And Ketelano get his back underway shortly 126 There's always going to be a little bit of a nervy night this and

Ketelano played well like I said they've nothing to lose they can just go out and Enjoy themselves tonight if that's the right word but I'll go back to it They've not only had a trial I know they scored but it was from deep They're not going to keep doing that on Wigan. They need to get near the trial and they haven't looked like anyone near close to the trial And so far well, they I mean they've always prided themselves on their big pack, but that big pack is not really Setting any time to platform great run from junior Now here comes the big key week On a big burst of speed Getting over the 40 on Neil and suddenly Wigan have up the tempo here. He comes Walters Crazy legs crane up towards the 40 Broken French Some officers were unlucky not to get a set restarting his first it'll go on the second there Yeah, we're going to definitely up the tempo here starting to play at this pace that's the bench Roy

Yeah, and parting to now on the 20 Takes that tackle as a few words with T-Song Now going through the hands quickly again and send but no keep all of it junior thought about the offload Feel was there, but just at the wrong angle for it. Yeah, I did well to keep hold of that Now they go out to the right Ellie short pass for Paddy Maygo Remember on try watch tonight for Havard and Ellie so no Neil goes himself and scores Soft try that for the dragons Wait for dummy half crashes in under the crossbar and that will be a little bit of a nerve Reliever for Wigan 20 points to six. Yeah, but we said could settle around and December started it up We said and me go then the series staff on Walters and they just too much off the bench there for Wigan and Maygo on the tackle before stood up a few defenders They didn't get him on the ground and all Neil just started under the post some poor defense though

You have to say far too high on Brad O'Neill But that is the beauty of this Wigan bench Three carries from three substitutes And Wigan are in under the crossbar. Here was the prop Josh Allen. He was very flat-foughted as on Neil darted down And couldn't get a tackle on him and a chip shot for Alan Kearin will make it 18-6 in a second on 27 So we have 13 and Three quarter minutes remaining in this first half This to make it 18-6 Dragons have made another change And of course Kearin former dragons player himself Get into sign a new contract Another one is current one is but Time down sport There we go chips it over 18-6

About on Neil's first try since we played Bradford at home in early May Yeah, it's another strange one isn't it Now it was 16 games ago for him That was the start of a run that we got on Just losing that whole car game when we played our kids Yeah, in all that time remarkable 14 14 Unbeaten So hopefully my belong in that now I have a count in the second book It counts enough if you don't win the next two after this indeed got to win this first. This is the important And This lead leader shield I've held that lead leader shield it bloody heavy good offload from me go Into the hands of field he picks out and send The suddenly wiggin now

I've got that look about them No, Neil goes on a scamper from dummy half of the just playing with a pace now which the dragons are Benches took it away 15 in a row already yeah team in 19 wow That's including cups Yeah field throws the dummy fence It's another fenn but can't get away this time just inside the 30 But yeah, it's been a really injection from the bench hasn't it just reinvigorated wiggin Ellis rather wild offload then a chip over the top from French. It's a clever one makin senastor scuffle back Putty's mate proper hospital pass that's on it. Yeah, we have a rugby in the past the wilds as they are But he stayed in just even though about seven wiggin players were determined to push him out with Lenny marky Pasta their making some out of anyway no I'm retiring man. I don't want that you have it It's probably right though because making some was running backwards towards their ball line

So it was very clever. I'm too old for this you have it good kick no one ever the less Yeah, and dragons here inside their own red zone in that 20 I think that's for no this is the last that sure T-Song goes to his left a rushed kick from Dodd which is only just gonna Crawl over the halfway line that's reward for wiggin and now field Can't get away there from Matty LaGuerre And work your punty the penalty for 12 nil at Lee and leads of scored lead for halt six You see it's LaGuerre's Pondryth game tonight. It is yes Now Ben and French It's the feet twinkling away brought down on the 30 He is on Neil little ball to his left. Walter's comes onto this Just inside the 20 now Oh Neil he is Ellis up the middle throws a dummy come on Cade We want a full set

Two meters out last tackle. Oh a little spin pass from me go Karen now should have passed it Anyway, I'll turn it over there. That's for I mean fair play to the dragons there good scrambling deep To get across to that far side Like wiggin might be in there Wiggin now they're on top but keep turning them over right under trial line Yeah, Catlum you can see him breathing heavily in the middle of the field These stuff such a fearsome pack there's still some big men out there don't get me wrong But they're just not Making a dint in this wiggin defensive line at all This evening But this this morning again From a marta make a note he's an elusive little bugger Yeah, we didn't go farther. We did get slightly round back as they put it recovered So the dragons with Busque now dot good rugby out to that left hand side going through the hands

And that's easy in touch there. Well, he tried to offload it backwards Okay, he's getting a penalty if I'm not quite sure what form maybe accidentally offside so wiggin penalty Great tackle from Keir because he hasn't been in yet that he's armed touch the floor and then he's passed it so If you're armed touches the floor that counts as a tackle Elise comes off foul comes on listen to this noise You Just in his plane on the right side which Not his natural left side Jimily were Straining up sound waltzes into the proposition got him December on the left We're passing since playing the loose forward now. Well, this is off as well. This is waltz

There's a handful since he's come on Be great to get the pearl over for a try tonight Here's Smith Now French always got the pearl on his shoulder always almost through first touch Neely through May go again Smith Little stutter that and quite know what to do with it just pops it up for waltz We can just going lateral here To waltz will stay on those very long legs 10 meters out switch to the right French little short boys But intercept it but it's whoever's got it was a car toss this lad isn't whoever is but he's been dragged in that good tackle from Partington yeah French trying to find foul there and it was intercepted in between the two. Yeah now there here comes Marta once again Hold to the floor just inciting was it himself as well

Pulled up a bit lame. This is Dorella Tour Son of Francis of rising damp fame 30 meters out now T-Song in a dummy half wild pass there. It's done us to pluck out from over the top of his head And now in the hands of boost scare 25 meters out T-Song Goes to these right and spit all b-shay Scrag to the floor by the collar by junior and sembar Un ceremony asleep. I think he's done. He's amstring Marta but got chance here. Oh dogs kick his a poor one Into the shins really poor. Yeah Yeah, the limp in bat Marta but yeah, it was holding the back of his left. I thought growing up first We see he keeps touching the back of his leg which suggests hamstring That'll be a shame because I've enjoyed watching him play tonight. Yeah, he's look good Yeah, I'm going to substitute him and let's see Lee L.i.s

I suggest if you are a parent and we know that letters cost by the letter that Trying to encourage your child to be a fan of Alexis Lee Because you only have been paying for three minutes. Oh you scored about a set of boats scrambled points in this team You're not going much for him. No Smith kick You'll want to be getting an a-spirul b-shay shirt You can sod off now then To lose a retaken a leader and to our intonate four saints 12 for Kearn deal That woman all the way from one to leave six whole six And now the dragons on halfway Good offload now there is Alexis Leece Lee T-Sort muting at dummy half on the 40 here's Lee once again Oh Huge Body slam there from all in pink

Now Frank Maria this is Dodd I haven't a dig here Catalan throwing it around good offload again. I'm going to stop that Wiggum Offload back on the inside once again. This is Matilda Gert Proled down on the 10 meter line. This is the last tackle just under five minutes remaining In this first half little dab through the line. Well, too marshal, but it will be a go-line dropout That was a good set from the dragon. Yeah, they've had a good few minutes and that's the ball alive That's the thing I would point at the 430 to half time just get to half time now don't land back in before half time 18 points to six Nice kick into the engol said it always calls promise of it's the trial I'm that's Indian girl and marshal didn't really have much room for maneuver to get out of there Still six a piece at headingly between the drawing those and whole FC Short drop out from Harry Smith why

Well, Wiggum have got the ball. So oh, forgive him this time, but it's just I don't like it It's nonsense sure. I know we've won it But he's nonsense to be doing that at 1860 get to half time. That's the third time he's done that every some weeks But it will may think teams think about it when it comes to the playoffs. Well Even though we got the ball this nonsense if they they've got the ball there. That's just giving cheap territory away It is and close to your own line as well This is parting to stays on his feet just shy the 40 It's just the reserve of a team that needs to score with seconds remaining is a short dropout That's what it's there Here is Smith now comes round the back puts a kicking over the top diller at tour takes it over his shoulder Rather nicely when he will run it back again And Dragons now have it just shy of the 40 we're gonna leading by 18.6

Just over three minutes remaining in this first half Even into mandinite in gale so ham and do you don't need to go for a walk? Don't this is soft. It'll be fine This is Alexis Lee brought down and it's a one-on-one strip by Harry Smith well done Now Echersley Now you're changing it just shy of halfway come we're gonna nick another before half time This is what they do better the most or a drop goal you know they are the masters of the Kick to the gut just before the interval all waltz has dropped it I was unlucky because it's in collision So having 16 whole karnel Now you went for the fenn there waltz and lost the ball in making the fenn yeah protect the football Yeah Tannish shrug off Louis starred and had a good game since he's come on waltz, but that's a bad mistake

Anyway Just a smidge over two minutes remaining in this first half And we're gonna have a good 12 point lead But it's been a good game the dragons have not come here to make up the numbers. That's for sure They've lost the ball straight away So again you still minute 50 you 40 out. Oh, that could be a big from Matiligur Coffed it up on the first tackle inside your own half And you know that wigan are lethal at this this period in the game. He has waltz Still plenty of time 90 seconds To make the way down field and then let bev or Jay do the stuff now he is echoesly down this near side Getting closer wigan 15 out tight to touch on this near side Backing field it comes from Marshall Smith to O'Neill pops it back up on the inside for waltz He attracts four Catalan defenders Before he's brought down just shy of the 10 and to the left of the posts O'Neill goes right

Parting to this is on here So pass for Bevan French And Leo Farrell he's in I'm standing up is it for a try Just before half time Well Right the scripts Second wigan try of his career when it's the last Away and see stand innovation for him So Fantastic some of the two games since our appearances for him since he last scored which was in the win-up wakefield Back in June But say I was the script was there wasn't it and You just felt right before half time as well. I think French has been trying to get him over for a try Yeah, that was French he's third attempt. It was an interception

That's a big smile. I've ever seen on Matty Pete's face But again what a dagger just before half time Right, you know people a lot of people saying this might be his farewell, but He's you know, he's coming early so You never know if he is going to play in the next two weeks Still be around as an option. It's not it's not come on like he's injured You know some people may have thought he'd only come on towards the end of the game But Adam Kearin will try and convert this Got good chance. He's not near the touch line. So he does pick that for 24 6 1-1-1-1-1 And yeah, that who to ask on so how he's smirk on seven minutes When it's six nil cat I have a good counter attack tries to deepen the field for a finish by ugo T-Song For six six on 13, but the back to back tries it was same last week at lead. So got back to back tries in the middle of the Each half And it was set Marshall on 22 then on nil on 26 which made that six six 18 six

And then the unfollowed but on the 39th minute 4246 So 40 minutes left of the regular season Now Wigan on the cusp of the double Making some of the restart collected by Marshall Walters will bring this back up God that music's finished the tannel he is too loud far too loud. He is may go now Get it over the 20 Is that the all four? I can hear yeah Now on nil great carry upfield This is part into now Walters and September now over the halfway line Oh Nielin at dummy half just goes down the short side now reverse angle kit from Harry Smith and it's a clever one It's gathered in though by Lenny mark On the 10 meter line you'll get it over the 20 And we can get through there first set in this second half

Yeah, and just keep game for you to set that's what we're looking for and like I said Yeah, I plan well within the cell see you can see that they're just Doing enough conserving their energy For that game in two weeks time. I love a nice break after tonight To recharge the batteries Just what I want in jate war little back for that semi final because You can see I'm showing down on the touchline earlier doesn't look too bad. Yeah Not float by the dragons. I wonder if they'll go away and have a bit of warm weather Actually do Dodd Floor blind me that's a very high kick we're gonna let it bounce again Kotrick bats it back but into the hands of fresh. It's a high kick. It's a rubbish kick. Yeah, there's only meters on it This is all peanuts that in the air but you kind of guess a distance. Yeah, no point kicking it 30 out because we can Could just do what they did there let it bounce Yeah, here's Marshall

We can already up to the 40 Two minutes gone in this second half on Neil No, Walters up the middle Brilliant leg drive there Come a big man good stuff on Neil goes left parting to throws the dummy Brought down to shy the 30 last tackle They go left again Smith measured kick into that far left corner Echersly chases it and that's well gathered in by Leo do it a lot to her Look at we're gonna get another turn them over five for the trial line and they've just been doing that a lot. Yeah During this game. So you need to do okay. I'll go try it back start to the second hour Saints 18 okay our four Here 24 points to six to the Warriors And a penalty for the dragons Some Walters are judged to be holding down there at the play of the ball

You're just laying on for a little bit too long On Matia LaGuerre So my spear or B-Shayah, that's not the best kick either doesn't get many meters with that It will be a tap for the dragons Taken by Kotrich And now this is Frank Maria brought down on the 40 years T-Song Bousskay The dragons over the halfway line good carry T-Song again at dummy half now Bousskay going through the hands out to this Near's all key and almost intercepted that pass from Lewis Dodd You ready well he's got it on it didn't aim. Oh, he's got it in octane But you know it was heavily reaching out there to try and take that it's not easy to do it with one hand which he was trying to do Five meters inside the Wigan half for another set for Catalan

Four minutes into the second half of your convertive for 18-6 to set having sin that game So scrub down for Catalan just inside the Wigan half And Lewis Dodd will feed the scrub T-Song now make instant That's too Mark is brought down near the touch line on this near side Just 35 meters from the Wigan line. This is Benghazah brought down on the 30 T-Song Lewis Dodd brings in Bousskay straightens up goes down the middle Brought down on the 20 T-Song small into center field Dodd little drop of the shoulder brings in the run there of Giovanni descalzi Seven meters out now then Bousskay excuse me off loads it Harry Smith picks it up well done Harry

Yeah Lucky did early in the game it pops out a no words. He's horrible this kick glass to be absolutely true for you No need for it Catalan should definitely be in their way kit today. Yeah They hadn't brought in a way kit. They should be damn well playing at the nude. They get told well in a fan's Yes, they're in probably it started a season to tell you the truth but there's no need for them to be in white tonight Anyway, good drive here brilliant from Keir and let's hold Southway Now they're Smith Farms it out too recklessly over on that far side he gets away throws the dummy and he's through oh good tackle Hold down from behind. This is the last 15 out Wigan over on that far side will they go coast to coast here? I think they will field French now in that position. Oh great idea just too much on the kick for Austin Daniel to get on the end of it Yeah, I think Daniel was on these heels as well. Yeah, perhaps you didn't dissipate it that a bit more

I'm not sure you would have got it anyway to be fair just a bit too strong from Bev And Catalan survive that break from oh half break for mecha. So you didn't quite get clean away on the opposite side on the left Through the dummy towards Marshall and went himself Good recovery from uh Asperer or B. Shea So the dragons 15 from the wrong line after that first tackle here's Makinson I believe low max and per civil of school tries for St Helens tonight so it's all rather fitting And here is Descalzi swimming if he is an Italian because they are Yeah, Persever got one and low max got two And that 18 points. Well, I'm glad. I'm glad. Oh, that's a loose carry again. It's the big man Julian Buscai Just a good tackle there from Paddy Maygo

And then as he was getting up. Yeah, just lost the ball there Yeah, not know disputing that one this time So we're gonna have head and feet just inside their own half Seven and a half minutes gone This is Smith Now field comes round on the loop We need to try here. It's got that atmosphere inside the stairway You can just hear people talking. Yeah, but it's always difficult when there's no way fans especially yes These are always difficult games against the Fred sides, but It just really want one more try to put this game to bed fully and as a separate stop fully out with some motors So a chance now for Wiggins To ice this this is parting to Gets the offload Walters with a step floats it to Maygo to his right And he goes forward couple of fends great carry from Paddy go

stays on his feet Can't get him down 15 out Wiggins right in front of the sticks Floated to French cut out ball Daniels in how many times have we seen French do that this season Exactly like you did it headingly shifted out to the right that huge cutout pass An Austin Daniel All he had to do was catch it and dot it down 286 yeah, it's a great pass the French either he was a bit laverse the answer reach up to take it But seems you got it It's just too quick in the Mind for the opposition through the pass it missed out foul And here and Daniel Who there's not much to do tonight to be fair? No, he's not come down his side. I think I think Catalan in the main Pretty much defended our wings out pretty well I know we've got two tries there which might go against that but in the generally I think they've done all right, but that was on a plate for Austin Daniel

Who uh two tries in two games for the umster. Yeah, he's all I think he scored That's three in five in his embryonic Wiggins career Well French again with that killer pass And another tough one for aca here, but he's been dead I dick tonight. This will make it five from five. You can slot this 25 out It's on his best side for a left foot of curling it into the pulse. It's still on the cellos. Sorry, it's a lot. Oh, kick this first It's on its way. That's beautiful right down the middle Yeah, so those have retaken a lead against wonton 12-8 And okay, I've now made it 18-10. That's how it 30 points to six here And this will be the points difference That whitefield coach lead for upwarrington It's still a bit of difference there at the moment to warrant him on two four nine and wait for them two two five, but

So lose have just converted for 14-8 So it can change quickly if Wakefield push on him to lose get on top of warrington that Could actually be Wakefield hosting okay on next week currently. It's what warrington against okay on wakefield against Lee But so you know you can't put it past the eater in that round in the second half Still 13-0 to wakefield at the sports village strange that 50 So far here comes in sembar Well, it's one of that. Sorry. Well come back to in a minute just under half an hour remaining and surely now wigan I'm gonna be lifting that shield at full time. What an achievement here comes far all now Up towards the halfway line Now partington Walters going through the hands again here Field now on that far side fends off to before he's wrapped up on the 40 By Alexis Lee Go down the short side smith put up the high kick

And Marshall does brilliantly there to bat it back but Hugo Tison was there To dive on that just shy the 20 yes, I said it before though It can be awkward when you play a game and you're playing the same team the week after you don't want to give you tactics away So that Lee score They don't really have an opportunity on points difference to go up both wakefield So they play to the game. I don't think if I don't think if rested plays though. No, I'm looking at there to there's two work dragons plays that pulled up lay me Armstrong senior bad rock handling Charlie Cook lamb off in the car way so it's a 40 Well, her drought broken Alec we're enki so You know I think there's a bit of possefot in there. Yeah, possibly possibly This is Maria brought down on the 40 As I said that leave just scored for 13 there you go Dodd with the high kick Brilliant take from field but it's a penalty for Wiggen offside offside

Inside the 10 why are they on again? I think it a shot on field there. I don't want to see if you're wrong with that the big man Busca Look at it Didn't look outside on that replay. Maybe it's the player inside who did get the challenge on field maybe you were offside Baby bets now baby bets and Tom oh So Taylor Kerr and Luke Thompson to come on that was a really Good kick as well Tap on the halfway by Karen Brad on me laugh you only fat spread on meals night to be fair. Yeah, yeah, yeah, don't need him out there now Only on the instill out there. It's part of the party. It's part of it. It's part of it So only on the instill out there so Kerr playing in the back row. Yeah Well, here is O'Neill Yeah, they go coming off on the outskirts and talking. I won't bring parts into back on Anyway, here's Kerr Now French little chip over the top. Not the best. No Telegraphed it there and making some just Came round on the arc and doubled that up easily

And the Russians are going to bring on the young Harvey Wilson. Yeah, I just assumed that was Only a look come off, but it was part of the so he's in the back row here Maybe at least forward. I'm not sure Well, is the other Alice back on? I'll probably won't they bring him back on either Ultimate utility man is Intelor Kerr Wanting a bit back he won't in 12 to lose 14 Here Wigan in full control 30 points to six The league leader shield is coming back to the brick He is Dodd on the last bit of a rushed kick again And Field will gather that on the 30 Whole gone back ahead at edinley lead six hold 12 Well, yeah, they'll be well aware of what's going on here It's gonna be tough for them, you know, it really is to pull themselves back up after Have an it snatched at the death

What you don't want to be going in the playoffs with free home defeats in a row And losing Miller for the season as well Here is Kerr now French on this near side back on the inside for jfield Just over the 40 Wigan This is on Neil now loop Thompson As well there gets it over the 30 last tackle for the Warriors This is Bevan French little kick over the top towards the post Just Dabbed it down in the nick there. I think it was Lenny mark because field was chasing after that. It's gonna be a goal line dropout And you can probably bet your ball mix going to be a short dropout as well Yeah, that's the old French and field combination just didn't bounce kindly for field yeah Yeah, look at the shallow

Line here from the Wigan players there very much expecting this to be a short one and it's not A fool you up to halfway collecting by Walters And he gets it back towards the 30 warranting converted for 14 14 24 and a half minute remaining here. Here's loop Thompson right up the guts here brought down on the 20 We'll Neil moves in at dummy half Out to this left hand side Well, that's come off the hand of LaGuerne and it will go out into touch so Wigan will get the ball back here And just an attempted cutout pass there And that's your LaGuerne just snaking out of hand Preventing the ball going through to Marshall So 15 out Wigan and Just turn over ball here

In center field they go right Thompson with the first carry gets Wigan inside that 10 meter Zone on Neil switches to the right brings in Farrowley gets away from his man Just held up short the pull there Oh Neil fires it back to French now then we're Wigan go coast to coast now infield it comes to Walters Eight meters out Wigan right in front of the post the goal left this time Smith just a little delay there Darling and Semba coming in on the crash on the angle They can't get him down. He's going to be held up on the line, but stays on his feet Oh Neil fires it back to Taylor Kerr Thompson juggles it but he does go backwards And then Kerr juggles it up play it was a bad option. Not some care right to try for a minute. Yeah last tackle French Shobble Farrow Does he got it down

Oh too many carried out he's held up Yeah bad pass them Taylor Kerr you know and Semba drag And Semba dragged about five plays into him. I'm a tackle before yeah, and then Kerr He went short to Thompson should have just gone behind Thompson out wide did a scored He dragged that many people in on Semba. They just couldn't get him down So a little bit of inexperience there from Taylor Kerr. Yeah, it was right to traffic that pass Don't know it was a knock on to be honest with you. Sure. Shalan is coming back on for the dragons. This is a Spear or B-Shay can't get away from Zach Eckersley And Here comes D'O'Rella Tour And Josh Allen comes back on For the dragons. This is Lewis Dodd awful pass to the feet of Nick Cottrich Trapped it with his foot did well actually and then goes on a decent run before

Scract to the floor by Thompson But play of the ball Here is Josh Allen Me at top of the last tackle Comes down the short left side Dodd Again good height but not much distance easy for field Gather that in and we'll be brought down on the 20 Coming as it stands we're going to wing Lee Lee this by four points, which is a remarkable although I've been said that I think leads are just coming back to 12-12. I will check that in a minute Yes Still all square at the Halleywell Jones between Woynton and Toulouse Wentfield 13 Lee four that's at the LSV St. Leading 18-12. Oh great ball from French Farrell's away Ball back on the outside to field all his ankle tap and he'll get up and score anyway So I try and assist for the pearl

But again, it's the the work of French once again It was determined to get phasin at all costs all over the park Well, I've still vintage Lee and Farrell like bursting onto a pass in the second role position Drawing in the fallback giving it to field ankle tap on in but not good enough to stop him J field not get quiet tonight That's his 22nd try and 26 appearances this season And as I said it does need a hat trick to get a hundred so that's 98 in his wing career Try confirmed so we're into the final quarter now of the regular season We're going coasting to the lead leader shield here 34 points to six With the kick to come great atmosphere inside the pie down tonight

The double is in the back Now all that remains to be done He's getting to roll traffic and taking back what he's hours Phase three hopefully completes tomorrow 12 o'clock kick off with the reserves Canfield's coming off Joe. I've got for now said injury. I think that's protection. Yep. Kate Ellis coming on Do he's going to slightly enough fallback? He's playing everywhere else He's like the supply teacher of rugby league Well, if he's that recklessly you'll go to fallback. I would think Always Austin Daniel going to go there. He's kicked it again here in six from six for 36 six just over the hour Yeah, I'm getting his gonna be That's what Zach's going to fall back I think Liam Farrell's now going to left sensors graveyard position early on the season

Well let him off it looks like anyway, it's copy incember to be fair is it what we'll see when they They fall out of this restart Seever incember or farrell on that left side at center. Yeah, I hope I start an injury for field. They are putting the camera on him Yeah, parting to the mego with turning round to talk to him there He's back up on his feet now That's the benefit of a week off if it is just give us a thumbs up Jay We don't want Facebook going into meltdown again So here comes junior Fired up sound stand absolutely bouncing This is walters Yeah Now they curve up the megal what an achievement this is really is

This will be Matty Pete's ninth trophy in five years I don't think sorry. I don't think leads made it 1212. I mean that's still six 12 Hole 126 to always we can keep the touch Catland Scrum 20 for their online Swatching field it don't look like they're giving him any treatment. I've just thought like they're just taking him off to protect him Yeah If it was anything hamstringy it began ice on that and there's none of that so I will say that's okay So The dragons come up the middle get me offload away Yeah, get get panny on and it half back because he loves the ball and he sounds and get beven off This is Josh Allen it is far less sense of either way with Marshall on that left side I think Liam Marshall's thinking just when he thought it was saved to go back in the water. He's here again

And he wraps him up there good tackle from Marshall Infield Here is Josh Allen once more Excuse me straightens up so and 24 hole care 12 In that epicenture come back at the moment We're all repissed. Oh, that must be a lot of tackle up Lewis Dodd there's fine to big gap and he races through it still going slacker marker there wicked Ten meters out now the dragon this is Kotrick Shrugs off one tackle Six Rooking free wasn't even tackled And that was an error to be fair. Yeah, he can't infringe the rook when the play is still on his feet Oh, let there from Bousskay Little switch your route to this left hand side flat pass by Dodd mark Kotrick quick pass Matt make instant

I'd love to see him going tonight Good kick through for making simba that's good Tracking back there from Zach Eckersley slides the ball out of play it will be a goal line dropout Want some of scored wanton 20 to lose 14 And that will see Wakefield off the third place because they're not moving forward hurtly And that'll be warrington hawk hour and the wakefield again to Lee next weekend. Oh that that is too Tasty ties my too tasty ties Yes, okay, art realizing how difficult it is when you've got a target on your back His wig and found out that season came up dry. It's not easy defending all the jewels That's an awful pass to do noxidon because he was stumbling for it Okay Make it see this last catalan game as well. I think he's elsewhere next season

I don't think it's been decided yet. There was room as he were going back to set Helen's all right Well, sir, that would make sense, but I don't think that's happening now, so all right I don't think anyone's picked him up, but I had pretty sure he hasn't got a deal at catalogue or I was Not signed a deal at catalogue Yeah Yeah, I think it was just a one year deal wasn't it that he signed initially Now, correct waiting to come on just dropped his gun shield. This is Marshall now 14 and a half minutes remaining Until Wiggen are crowned legally to shield winners That's second time in three years. Yeah, 20 out Yeah Did a third time in four years, Joe. Well, yes, if we go further back. Yes Salon scored again. So there are 28 12 now against okay. I said I should see that game up Ethan Havard is coming on now. That's Lewis Dodd done if that is Lewis Dodd down there

Not psychic holding his certainly. Yeah, it's in a bad way Havard on and Brad O'Neill is given the rest of the night off French he's at it again down this near side That will be a Wiggen ball. It came off Tommy making soon before it went into touch I'll tell you what Joe you don't want to begin injured without a contract because No, you don't So Brad O'Neill being protected in the end now again. He's just come off. Yeah. He's been magnificent this season He really has and it's kind of been the game today we can Just don't enough and it's 36 sixes to say that right now. It isn't really did not not been anywhere near the top gears. Yeah And they didn't need to and there's no reason for them to be 30 out here. This is Kerr now Thompson Good carry T. Sohom and Havard still waiting to come on Smith

Now French on this near side puts that kick through again through the line And it's battered out of play and it will be another goal line dropout It does light that little grubber as Bevan into the corner. Yeah, but I can't sound play. We're battered that back He battered it into the corner park and if that were to come back it would have been play on Lenny mark Just with the right side of the corner puts now. I see you can go short this time. Yeah, I'm gonna go short I could tell by the word where he's looking. It's not going to end again Oh no no Who got T-Sol? He's trying to say it did believe he jumps from inside the 10 and the ball or him after our feet over the 10 I don't think even then he was over the 10 look at this again. Well, they only sustained on the 10 Yeah, that was clearly inside he jumped from inside. That's the thing. Yeah Anyway, we can 10 out. Well, this is just a gift, isn't it? And Wiggum will be ruthless here and that because they will go in

Simple as that Let that be a lesson That is a harsh lesson Why we don't like the short dropout First play just out to the left-hand side to easy 40 points to six We can record 40 for the second game running and we're not finished yet Just quick shuffle to the left and 36 try of the season in all comps for Sackeca say I hold a leading headingly I don't have to have a look back Of when we last time we have someone as high as that on the trisco in charts in the season 36 That's obscene and not when Top trisco or of the season that's mad Yeah, just went through the hands there. We're gonna cheer weight of numbers

And echoes late operating in the centers Glides over Like a swan smoking the cigar And Kieran another tough kick, but he hasn't missed one tonight. This will make it seven from seven And 26 meters out a couple of meters in from touch over in front of the billy b stand and Well, you won't put it past in the mood. He's in tonight. He's been mustered off the tee kick on its way I think he might have shanked that one the he has Pants of mind booze that was a kisser death for you Well, he has been magnificent tonight after six from seven. Yeah for 40 points to six And we have 10 minutes just over 10 minutes remaining St scord again to 36 12 against ok Lee eight wakefield 30

In his senior with the try for not the mic that late, but it's not the matter In terms of the positions So it's okay Josh Chan I think he got 43 in 20 13 Was that In terms of the supra gear. Yeah, oh big shot going in there on I mean if you I would ask you a top scorer in 2021 was you would never guess in five million attempts I don't think really He was a center Anyway, his waltz is the 20th Joe as a thinker that Well, if you're telling me I'll never get I'll never get it jiggle jiggle jby Oh, okay, yeah, baby 14 it's set on my phone Anyway is French. That's when we lost French and feel I think midseason waltz is now we're gonna. Join themselves here offloading

Ellis spins and that's one offload too many straight into the the the touches of Alexis Lee and the dragons are now 35 meters out from the Wigan line. Just to smidge under nine minutes remaining of this regular season. Cannot believe how quickly it's going. It seems like the blink of an eye since we were in North Wales. That's a pretty season. Tackle there. It's just hanging down. Never it comes to Josh Allen again. He's just inside the tent stays on his feet just the left of the post. Harvey Wilson in a dummy half. Here's Kottrek. But he passed into traffic a bit there. Try to get him down this near side. Last tackle for the dragons. Floated to T-Song. That's a good kick that's going to hit near the tri-line.

Well done to the the Pearl there. Snatch that one. Well, it's the Pearl come out of a kick at goal if we score again in this last eight minutes. Possib. Possib. Well, he's had a good night tonight. One try. One assist. Well, we can get here in the hook because he's missed one. Yes. Yes, absolutely. Anyway, we're going to on the own 10s or a bit away from that. Yeah, no, some Walters. Game again tonight. That's a good kick. But it's a good kick. Making some. Collexing on the 20. Seven and a half minutes remaining. We're going 40. Catalan six. 34. Unanswered points. Last tackle. Comes to Smith. We're going only on the wrong 30. That's a good kick. To. Making some. Collecting on the 20. The dragons now. Just over the 30. Through. Lenny Mark. This is. This is. Dota Latour. Step to the 40.

This is good stuff from the dragons already over halfway. Spiro B. Shea. Harvey Wilson. Already up to the 30. Got a roll on here. Here's T-Song. Oh, got in the way. Kearons gathered that. Now then. Come on Adam. Pin the logos back. This is going to be a try for Kearon. Another intercept. For a. K. 44. Six. I was unlucky because that was actually a great set from the dragons there. T-Song's pass came off the back of one of his own players. He had the deck. Kearon just gathered it. On the his own 40. And she'll back to sex in place. I'll put the tie on Adam.

I said it. What's her own. And he never looks in doubt once he got that ball. No. Austin Daniel was with him. But. Not giving Farrell a kick at goal yet. If that's thinking later on. I don't know if Farrell is going to kick it at goal later. I don't know if Farrell is going to kick it at goal later. You could have rounded that a bit near the post for himself to be fair. But. Nine of our position. Nevertheless. I do wonder if Farrell doesn't want to kick it at goal later. To protect that record. I mentioned that he's the only wigan player. He was scored over 500 points for the club and never had a kick at goal. Do you think he knows that? Well. I think he knows that. Yeah. Man. So Keirin now. This is in a. Maybe. Maybe so so a lured in that. Is it not his last game? Well. Because he never know. We don't know that. Do it. Yeah. Absolutely. And he's. Everyone's assumed that. Yeah. He's. Particularly when they all warmed up in number 12 t-shirts tonight.

He's been great tonight. Since he's come on. But. We shall see. Now. Keirin now. This is. He's. 11 meters in from touch. Nineteen meters out. And. On a perfect side for the left footers. You just curl it in. To make it. Seven from eight. Straight down the middle. I mean, literally straight down the middle. 46. Now you don't see many. Newspaper reporters. In the press line. This again at the afresh colleague in front of us here. Bruno. He's got these newspaper. The article already there. Yes. For the local. Perpignon paper tomorrow. Wants to know sealed that against the loose. 24 14. Okay. Fair play. She's off now. Sort of. Rest in all. Just key all the ladies scored. Leave six. All 12 still. I'm. I'm. You know in terms of the table.

The rhinos have lost their form. That's the only shot. But. The fact. Hold just on 16 six. It ended. So that should. See all that. I mean, that is that just sums whole. See up to it. A. It really does. It's a. It's a. It's a. I'm. It's a. It's a. It's a. It's a. It's a. It's a. It's. It's a. It's a. I think that's it. There's. Well, we are four and a half minutes away. From the double. And it. Yeah. You're going to win this week by four points anyway. Anyway good effort. Yeah. Come on. Get up the field lead, baby, Bets gets it over the 40. He's been excellent this season as well every time he's come on. Dun-was neaded. Played the full 80 hooker at Bradford. This is Havard. the repeat set

track three defenders but what an effort this has been from this to overturn leads have been there all season and like you said we're gonna win it by 4 9th trophy in five seasons and still counting for Mattie Pete this is Hava short ball and Semba now that Hava go on he thought he's gonna get his first try of the season comes out Eccas Lee no good scrambling defense with Marshall he tries it always in all that's so poor Liam Marshall and it done me half just flopped over I'm wiggin bring up the half century what a way to do it you're gonna get far like kick it gole is probably this one but you know just scrambled over from Marshall I think Taylor Kurs got in the house but he'd last couple of minutes trying to figure out all that whole set who's played in the half but uh yeah French field or meal and partington all being spurred the final minutes on the touchline

Marshall just scrambles over and everybody for a second and he goes above Chris Radlin's game and he's having a kick we can go so yeah there he's got all this it's off one he's a very 10 infant touch and uh he's had that kind of a night isn't he would back against him slot in this but I'm a brain cany do in it obviously over two thousand and five Brett Dallas was not as so it's nice when he did it now on his last appearance he was standing in inside yeah well he's the brick I know it should be a bit rugby in the end go on fast what can he do it no he can keep that record he still has that record well he might get another shot in a minute you don't put it in store and again that's 50.6 yeah he gave it a go

and uh yeah just drag did a bit yeah we get it was a bit out wide to be sure and we can still got two 31 yeah getting under the sticks and giving him another go if we can so he keeps that record at the moment the only we can play with 500 points oh it's not a bad record to have it's not a bad record to have is it so two and a half minutes remaining the lead leader shield is in the back and this will be the bringing the thinking about short one here they've just brought Ellie so for that that's not going to end no but if not managed to do it on anything tonight I saw Farrell have a kick at goal from our place but I'll tell you our backers of score again here yeah we're gonna have to eat too they want to get over again so what's his tips it no even kicking for touch no this will be a club treble tonight

if this stays as it is which of course it's going to challenge coach tell you line him up for the drop goal Joel maybe he's not going to get it at left center 30 out now this is half hard Smith and Semba now then here is Farrell out on that left hand side she just hauled down inside the tent way over on that left hand side he is echoesly they want a score if they want it you can tell Smith we try the kick over the top came off the catalan hand and the dragons have it Walter's scragging man to the floor still 90 seconds left this is got trick oh good run from got trick I still going here Nick got trick gets the ball out wide here to a speedo b-shay oh that's a great try Alexis Lee and that was made a hundred percent by

Nick got trick pencil booze but it was a good it was a good time for the error from Harry Smith for the other end I don't know how many games this I'd played but you can end this season or high there yeah a shame but they were obviously trying to get one for Farrell's there but yeah that was a great run though from Nick got trick went through half the wick and defense there just kept going as I said he'll be at lead next season it's actually play 15 games this Alexi well looks like the dragons are going to have the final say but the league leader shield is Wiggins to go with the challenge cup and the academy grand final so that's three trophies already in the back hopefully it'll be number four tomorrow and then the women are in the grand final and our boys are 18 minutes away from the grand final it will be unprecedented

to win at every single level one club absolutely extraordinary Ben Garcia is getting a kick here on his final ever game and professional rugby now this is what fans wanted because that's a chip shot and he punts that over and that he's going to be the end of the game and how fitting that only's final ever game of rugby league the last moments of the game he's Ben Garcia slotting that kick over what a servant he has been also tolly making soon and of course is it going to be Liam Farr I don't know but Wiggins have won the league leader shield unbelievable by four points in the end so proud of this team they just amazed me

we can we count absolutely extraordinary what a fantastic effort way through the shield in at least 17 points to eight to get a playoff schedule it will be way through the lead next Friday on Sky Sports next Saturday we want to look out by 30 I'll be on Sky Sports and BBC 2 semi finals if you serve it will be leads against the lowest ranked it will be then on Friday 25th at eight o'clock on Sky Sports and our semi final on the 26th Saturday at 530 on BBC 2 and Sky Sports and if OCR win next week it will be Wiggins OCR if OCR don't win next week it will be the winner of the way through the lead match

so there you go so we're going to stick around for the presentation and what an effort in all right the end lead sick get a drive back against Holt but not quite comes a full time beast 12 for 18 well found for the presentation yeah we almost forget there was one of 12 pits in height this is our six super league leave the shield we've seen 20 10 2012 2020 2023 2024 and we also did win a lead lead as trophy in 1971

which didn't last long in those days because it quickly went from the playoffs to first past the post for a good 20 odd years after that Adam Kear and Scott the Sky manner to match maybe help out up like try but yeah we're going to just play within themselves tonight I don't think they were at full pelt but they still want pretty comfortably and yeah just got the job done I don't think we've got any injuries out with that last important thing and we move on we do it's time on the Saturday for time to play and it's a long time since we have an away play I'll visit it so another semi final at home so we're now just awaiting the presentation of that lead lead as shield that's it great night here at the break all the squad down there now in the technical area

and all the dragons plays and stuck around as well to get ready now for the presentation it's a nod your work down there wheeling out the flame boxes all the players children down there as well it's always nice to see so Saturday September the 26th 530 p.m. make sure you don't miss it built over here tomorrow at 12 for the reserve's grand final where we can look to make it face full of six and then it's over to the women to see if they can get to grand final to make it a clean sweep of six trophies never been done

at every level in the club absolutely extraordinary I brought an effort from this wig inside they have that horrible rum don't forget we've won the lead by four points and this is a team which lost a castle foot and we lost the Huddersfield on this ground this scene bounce back ability and the youngsters that have stepped up as well again this season absolutely brilliant they paddy's got these three thorac misnakegab always get step usually have sweets all around them they did an old trap just confirm all the full times are in now lead 12 whole 18 lead 8th weightfield 9 sts 36 hulk yard 12 and 1 in 26 to lose 14 and yeah remarkable rum to get this leave the shielded

but you have to say in all this run of wins we've not really blinked pulling the hardest game was actually a whole left see away yes let's come from behind and really hang on right at the end of that game but Lee first half probably the only team that's really putt us on the massive pressure and we needed that break from jfiel lighted that first half and apart from that it's been pretty convincing legally the shielded you think forget the start well the five out of five rikes at the start of the season pull leave were beaten I think we went to to lose on one early I kind of think that it was York was in there we beat them 23 22 on a tough first denied yeah what's the play for someone else in there I can't quite think of now but yeah you think of that middle run for this field loss at set out and it's good Friday casserole and worry to me lost four out of five but we won the one that mattered in that

the one which was the weightfield cook time I'll tell you that way for your cook time we look back now turn the season in without the grand final yeah we don't know what's gonna happen with that year but yeah that I could be saved the season because that we lost that Matty P was going to a lot of grief at that time and that would have compounded it yeah as matters it sounds so that really wasn't it but you forget also that win at weightfield 12 no down in that game little boy is just run on all the way from the Boston stand there chested taking a shirt off and now all the players are signing it for him oh god love it just run over with a mark a pen well I don't know his parents are don't always you'll be on the pitch but you'll like it now the Boston stand run the whole width of the pitch oh don't want to talk about it but everybody's signing it well if you don't ask you don't get

good on you little man well I hope he keeps that it doesn't point on either I'll put it that way it's being led off now onto this near side he said no I've come from the other side he said well you're coming off this side anyway the kill choice they're grief fair but taking him off the field for I think they might be I'm going to worry for these parents there he's pointing them on the other side he's not only about five six seven that kind of age anyway let's conquer the presentation so here we go Jayfield coming up he stand up so I'm going to film this

so the liga players getting their lead leaders meggles and thoroughly deserved and I mentioned for all the reserves Joe Jack Freyman's there Noah Harkinson's Shay O'Connor it's so many and they deserve to be in on that as well sure a lot of those players down there played in the whole kr game that we lost in May but today they deserve to be on this as well it doesn't look like we're going to see Jack Freyman at the back end of this season what's his moment solo in the year without Ben French were fantastic and that's a lovely touch look who's walking that little lag back over it's Chris Radlin's key and he's been listening to the cheers for that little man now they lean farrell has the lead leader shield in his hands for the final time that French simply lead lead leaders ready for it

you there it is and the Warriors once again are the league champions and thoroughly thoroughly deserved what an effort it has been again and what a fitting finale for the ginger pearl who's got to try tonight almost had a conversion but this team just goes on from strength to strength and cook me proud to not be proud and Patrick Meggol they're lifting the trophy as a sad he's 150 if we get a period tonight not massive celebration no they just calmly lifting the trophy around because they know the big job still to do yeah absolutely counts for little the league lead the shield

unless you go on to win it at all traffic the two wins from winning the title and leads can say that the other side can say the free wins away from winning it as well so sort of play for that week off I think has often proved important to us as it is yeah when we've had it and I'm sure we'll be going hammering songs in that first 20 minutes against who we play but if it doesn't you can't get on top in that first 20 you back the bench again because that's where this game blew away for a catalan back to back tries on 24 on 28 a lot of staff getting involved now for this picture yeah so they are college sure for us and not here today having a bit of a lousy moment yeah so I'll soon shoot with thinking on the up I want a great picture that is now the coaching staff it's been an emotional time for the club with the passing of

Chabilly Boston and this will go a long way to putting the plaster on there it is junior centers kids headed up on the pitch there the shield was trying to stop it junior is come across yeah you're not going to stop it and and uh what an effort what an effort and that's a say not only the squeak to the front you don't win it by four points and uh all the players and staffs children lovely touch it's interesting I'm going to go and get into it it's an interesting one isn't it because the heats have lost three in a row now at home and they find looking at them from below he's want to play them into 75 that's because I couldn't know there for the take it yeah they remind me a bit if you remember the end of 2022 uh with each

st. Sear right to the end of that season and it was really on paper set as up but we lost three in foul over lost take cost a week later ironically I think it was against Catalan where the backs are back the heats in the last round and then the first round of the playoffs against Leeds uh it's it these ground finals are all about timing you're on they've been lucky with injury season leagues but that lost the locky Miller shouldn't really do air the season but by the evidence is that potentially it is but you don't know I'm not seeing that game and once they need it couldn't get top spot they might have took it easy and took place off the field themselves you don't know well there we go phase three complete three more to go wiggard are legally the shield champions they are challenged cup winners the academy won the grand final tomorrow listen live midday the reserve grand final belko will be here for that

and then saturday the 26th wiggand are eight to minutes away from old traffic the day after we'll be here for the women's grand final and they will have gone totally unbeaten all season whichever way you slice it we are on course the history this season on every single level what an incredible achievement Matty Pete knowing trophies in five years and it could well be ten hopefully so we sign off from another regular season rot a season it's been upstounds wow but wiggand as they do have come out on top and a fixing end to the greatest career for Liam Farrell is it over we don't know we'll see the trophy out there to an impressive trophy and a lot of the best is total years we've learned
