Re: Ryan Hall set for romantic Leeds Rhinos return with Hull KR departure confirmed

i'm afraid its going to take a lot more than Ryan Hall to get leeds back to anything like winning trophies or challenging for the top of the league again Bringing one ex player back who was part of their success doesnt mean the culture will change over night. it takes time to build and develop a cul...

Re: CCSF

If memory serves me right it was 1992 semi final versus Bradford at Bolton, that was the last time we played a Yorkshire team in a semi in Lancashire I believe that was the day Henderson Gill scored for Bradford and was cheered by Wigan fans all the way back down the touchline. Yes he did whilst of...

Re: Charting the remarkable rise of Wigan Warriors’ proud Cumbrian prop Harvie Hill

You missed out Sam Eseh. I knew i'd missed someone but it wasnt coming to me yesterday :). I was thinking more of one of our young lads from the academy but, it just adds more firepower to our pack, with another young hungry prop, with some good 1st team experience already at Wakey. Glad i'm not Ma...

Re: Charting the remarkable rise of Wigan Warriors’ proud Cumbrian prop Harvie Hill

the potential of this current pack is actually quite frightening, and could be our pack for the next few years, with a little bit of smart recruitment / development of youth we have Thompson, Dupree, Cooper and Havard, that you would see as the starting 4 when all fit. Mago, Byrne, Hiil and Chan. E...

Re: Squad v Castleford

good strong squad chance to rotate one of the props to give Cooper game time and poss give one of the young backs some game time i wouldnt go wholesale changes as we need to win the game, and keep some consistency ahead of the game v KR the following week Out of the backs I'd definitely leave Keigh...

Re: CCSF

Does it matter? Clearly to some it does reading comments on here and social media I personally think its better than Leeds last year as that was just plain ignorant how we got stuck outside, whilst the KR fans had 3 stands with a roof. If Headingley isnt available, then this is probably one of the ...

Re: CCSF

seems reasonable to me Holds 15k (just over) and isnt Headingley given we've drawn HKR again, the only fair way for us to play a game is have something in the middle ground. we arent going to get a game v HKR at Wire, Saints or Leigh. 2 stands for each of us to sell out (North and East / South and W...

Re: Warrington v Saints

Poor game to watch! i think Wire took their chances well, with a couple of kicks causing chaos in saints defence. they deserved to win, but nowt special I dont think they are that good though, and i dont think Wigan will be worrying that they have put 30 past Saints. Our defence is far better than ...
