You can get the opportunity easily. Just hang around outside the DW, or your own stadium, on match-day. The teams don't enter by magic carpet. They get off coaches and walk across the forecourt. Loads of fans know this, because they line up for autographs etc. You can even use a mobile phone to immortalise your moment of excellence, and you can then post it on here - just to prove you aren't a cowardly, full-of-sh** little creep.

From the one who is quite happy dishing out his own personal attacks.

I'm not going to manufacture a meeting by hanging around outside grounds, that would make me a stalker; nor am I going to purchase a mobile phone just so I can post something on here.

I'm merely saying that if I met him, and the opportunity arose, I'd be quite happy to say that his act was that of a thug and a coward ............ what's he going to do? ........... hit me and prove me correct.

However, in 30+ years of following the game, I've only met 2 Wigan players, so as I said, it's unlikely to happen.

You don't need to convince me. I know without a shadow of a doubt that it won't happen.

If Hohaia knew he was faster than Flower then why obstruct him? he could (and should have just claimed the ball) I suggest you read Stuart Cummings article in this weeks League Weekly (page 11 of the Grand Final review) where he discusses the officiating of the game.

Well I'm impressed

Do you really think you'd be telling him something he doesn't already know? If he was going round singing from the roof tops you'd have a case, as he himself and the club have said, he knows what he's done and he's distraught about it.



Just let it go, everyone seems to have done apart from certain supporters.

If you look at the replay Hohaia was turning anti clockwise to face the ball he only took one stride on his left foot and moved about 3 feet, he didn't have time to see Ben Flower and obstruct. Ben Flower knew Hohaia was there and rather try and run around took the opportunity to punch the side of the head, minutes before kick off Ben Flower was punching the padding on the goal post, boxer style, so I summise he was "pumped up" big time.



I,ve seen Ben Flower do this quite a few times this season going to the head and also late, to date he's done it to Mounis ( Catalans) O' Brien (Warrington) Walsh (St Helens) and its not gone unoticed by Browny hence his media article.



In the final Flower should have just pushed Hohaia out of the way, probably there would be a good chance Hohaia wouldn't have retaliated and you would have been superleague champions.

That is outrageous! What ban did he get? Absolutely horrendous.
