Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Kua akiakihia a Ben Flower kia 'iti ake te riri' i te wa i tukuna ai e te kaitautoko i te whakamutunga whakamutunga o te tau mo Wigan i te tukinga o te Rōpū Taonga o te Rāhoroi ki a Warrington. Ko te 28-tau te pakeke o te Welsh International forward i te Turei i whakaoti i tana whiu mo te ono marama mo te whiu i a Lance Hohaia i nga wa tuatahi o te Grand-Final o Oketopa i Old Trafford. I whakamiharo a Flower i te mano 76,000 me tana whakaeke ki te haurua o St Helens, a, i muri i te mea ko ia te kaitakaro tuatahi i tukuna i te Whakamutunga Nui, i tukuna te tuarua o nga whakatārewatanga nui i roto i te hitori o te Super League. Ko te whiu kino a Ben Flower ki a Lance Hohaia o St Helens i te whiringa toa o te Pirimia Pirimia i whiua ai ia mo te ono marama. Ko Flower, e haere atu ana i konei i muri i te whakaaturanga o te kāri whero whakamutunga, ka hoki mai i te Rāpare ki a Warrington. Ka mea te kaiako o Wigan, a Shaun Wane, e hiahia ana ia kia hoki mai a Flower 'he mea kaha ake, he mea kaha ake, he mea pai ake hoki.' Ka hiahia pea a St Helens ki tetahi mea rereke hei awhina i te mutunga o nga tau e waru kaore he taitara Grand Final. E rua nga whiu kino a Ben Flower ki a Lance Hohaia, i arahina ai ki te whakakore i te kaitautoko Wigan i roto i nga meneti e rua, e rite ana ki taua whakaahuatanga. Pāwhiritia ki konei kia pānui i te pūrongo katoa a Martha Kelner mō te Whakataunga Nui o te Rōpū Taumata Nui. I kii te kaiako o Wigan a Shaun Wane i tetahi huihuinga korero i te DW Stadium i te Turei ka maka ia i te puawai ki roto, tata tonu mai i te papa, me te tumanako kia rite tonu te tinana. 'Kei te tumanako ahau he iti ake te riri, he iti ake te kaha, he iti ake te kaha,' i kii a Wane mo Flower, i pokanoa ki te turi i te wa o tana whakakorenga. 'Kāore he feaa ko ia tētahi o ngā kaiaka pai rawa atu o mua i roto i te whakataetae, ā, ko tā mātou e hiahia ana. E hiahia ana mātou ki tētahi Ben Flower i roto i tō mātou kapa. He pūmanawa ia, he rite tonu ki taku e pai ai, he kaha tana rere i te pōro, ā, kāore e taea e ia te whakaae. He tino pai ia ki ahau. Ka hinga a Flower ki Hohaia i muri i tana whiu tuatahi i te kaitākaro o Aotearoa ki te whenua. Kāore he kōwhiringa i hoatu ki te kaiwāhi a Phil Bentham engari kia waiho a Flower hei kaitākaro tuatahi i tukuna atu i tētahi whakamutunga nui. 'Ka korerotia e ahau ki a ia ki te haere rite kaha rite ia...
I whakatārewatia a Ben Flower mō te ono marama i muri i te kāri whero whakamutunga nui. I patua a Lance Hohaia e te Flower Prop ki te whenua i roto i tētahi aitua whakamataku. Ka hoki ia mō Wigan ki Warrington i te pō o te Rāhoroi. E ai ki te kaiako a Shaun Wane, kua rite te kaitākaro o te ao o Wales ki te 'whakapā atu' I kii a Flower i te Mane e pouri ana ia i te whakaekenga nanakia i nga ra katoa.
