Wigan Warriors' Adrian Lam hits back at the "ridiculous" criticism from Wakefield's David Fifita and Chris Chester
Coach Chris Chester accused his opponents of "naughty stuff" during Friday's 30-20 loss and the following day, prop David Fifita took to social media to call out the Warriors' "cheap s**t" which he claimed could be career-threatening.
Fifita highlighted his tweet with a video clip showing debutant Joe Shorrocks tackling him.

Sam Powell has copped a two game ban for a dangerous tackle but Lam felt the reaction from Trinity was out of proportion.
"It was a little unfair I thought, looking back at the video," he said at today's press conference.
"There was not much to it at all. If that's what he thinks, fair enough.

Fifita, meanwhile, has today signed a new three-year deal with Wakefield.
