Leeds followed by Leeds

Sounds like the Rhinos are in usefully poor form ahead of our two fixtures so if we can get some bodies back we might be in with a decent shout in both. However, I always hate it when we play the same opponents in the cup and league in very close proximity, because for whatever reason-probably psych...

So Wigan have cast the net with hopes of reeling him in? :D
Let's hope we can poach him

Will we have a plaice for him?

Re: Junior Nsemba

I haven't seen / read these comments but does anyone seriously think that all young British players going into RL these days don't think exactly like this? The salary cap, diminishing TV deals and extinct international scene have created such a gulf between Super League and the NRL that that any pla...

Re: Matt Peet provides latest on Brad Singleton injury with timeframe confirmed

[ Did he play for our academy or something? I don't remember this if he did. I think when they say "boyhood club" in this case they are referring to the fact that Singleton was a Wigan fan when he was growing up in Barrow. He once published a photo of him aged 12 with Sean O'Loughlin I se...

Re: Memorable Derby games

100% this. Boxing Day 1994 one of my favourite games of anything ever. The centrepiece of a Boxing Day so good that I was very tempted to drop out of university so I could spend all my time back in Wigan. We went into a big lead, lost Cowie to the sin bin after the fight with Fogerty and then Henry ...

Re: Potential swap

Sam Eseh at Wakefield might be worth a look if Wakefield go down.

Re: Liam Marshall

Yes I make that 101 tries for him now in a Wigan shirt. Odd that none of the reports or tweets mentioned it.

He's turned into such an important player for us now. Bravo Liam.

Re: Wigan Squad for Wakefield

Incredibly disappointing. I'd rather we'd have used this fixture to give the likes of Hill, Nsemba, Miski etc. a run out as I originally thought we might. Wakefield were always going to be massively up for this and fancying taking the points and we never really seem to go there and perform. Do we ta...
