Re: Wigan squad for Catalans (R10)

Superb second half. A lot to like. I think Wardle is superb. Someone above suggested the best centre since Carmont. With respect to that fine player, Wardle is a class above. I would say the best centre we have had since Renouf. It was me that said it. But if we are gonna go that far back, I’d have...

Re: Wigan squad for Catalans (R10)

Incidentally, as this was the game closest to her 100th, our auntie was in hospitality. We had contacted the Dragons separately, and she was treated to an evening for the ages. Bernard Guasch came over and presented her with a signed shirt, she was given a signed Wigan top, and lots of the players ...

Always has a good game.

Re: Semi final draw

If we get Headingley then surely it's Rovers' turn to have the uncovered terrace - I've only just dried out from last year! Wouldn't be surprised if the way they outnumbered us last year goes against us, though.
