Re: Derby Day!

Intense game, two very well matched sides going for it, a proper occasion and what RL should be about. Thought the red and the yellow were probably the correct decisions. Ultimately, that game meant miles more to Saints after our achievements last year and if we'd held on to win such a tussle when n...

Re: Wigan squad for Sheffield

Well we've certainly gone strong there. Thought we might see someone like Douglas given a debut or another game for Farrimond but can understand the need to give everyone a run out before next Friday.

Re: Wigan vs Penrith

Have just read an Australian newspaper article moaning about "home refereeing". I may stop laughing in June. I think if you look up the term "home refereeing" it says "Refereeing games like they do in Australia when they play teams from other countries"

Re: Wigan vs Penrith

Very much enjoying revelling in the bitterness of other club's fans this morning. You forget how much everyone else hates us and are terrified that another era of dominance is beginning. People can't even decide what to moan about. Last night I kept reading that Wardle had grounded the ball well sho...

Re: Wigan vs Penrith

A truly magnificent performance from the team. Every player who wore the Cherry and White should be proud of the way they turned up and faced down what Penrith threw at us. We may be missing a few more in the pack for our next game though. Brutal. As ever, when Wigan have won a big game all opposing...

He won the Lancashire Cup twice, the League Leader's Trophy, the BBC2 Floodlit Trophy and was unfortunate to lose twice at Wembley. In the 1968-69 s...

Re: Site updated

I do wish they'd do proper player profiles. Height, weight, place of birth, games played, tries scored etc. This is what player bios should be for, this is why someone would click on one surely, not to check out whether Bevan French has electric pace and dancing feet

Re: Garry Schofield Column; my prediction for Wigan Warriors Super League 2024

Wow. Even Garry thinks we’re the best team.
When he says he didn’t like everything we did in the 90s, I assume he means stopping him winning any trophies whatsoever
