A rather unique way of distracting your opponent.
Wigan battered Hull KR 60-0 in the Super League, and this little snippet rather slipped under the radar.
Hull’s Ben Cockayne was tackled close to his goal line by Wigan’s Liam Farrell, who plants a sneaky peck on the lips of his opponent, as they wrestle after the tackle. Cockayne actually gets so flummoxed by the kiss he knocks on the ball and Wigan win the turnover, so clearly the tactic worked.
If you need us, we’ll be forensically analysing every Super League game this weekend to see if this trick has caught on.
