Re: Wigan squad for Warrington (A)

Sensible to rest Thompson and Farrell, maybe Miski has a knock?

Re: WOLVESWarrington Wolves swoop to sign captain of Super League rivals

Who cares!!! I just wanna see my team win. Problem with that is you end up with a team full of non-Brits (journeymen), who have no real loyalty to a club, like football. You need homegrown players to provide the true passion to play for their hometown club. That can’t happen with an overseas quota....

Re: WOLVESWarrington Wolves swoop to sign captain of Super League rivals

Which - checks calculator - means more than half of Wigan’s first team squad have seemingly come from other clubs. All clubs target others’ players. If Warrington are vultures, RL must be a flock. Add in quota players, those places are open to all clubs. Who cares!!! I just wanna see my team win. :...

Currently only two Academy products in the backs though at present. Just saying :) Fourteen players in a first team squad of 30 have all come through our academy.

Re: Smellys v Leeds

I had this in the recorded folder, and I thought it was just the 20 min highlights, but it's the full game. So I started watching it. Suggesting Saints are a "world-class side side" sems crazy; they are surely a poorer side now than the one that beat Penrith. It strikes me, that if Saints...

Re: Challenge Cup Final Tickets

not sure but i think it means that it is safe to stand in front of your seat? From Wembley's guide: Persistent standing Persistent standing during a match at Wembley Stadium is strictly forbidden (unless with a ticket for the safe standing area) and may result in ejection from the ground. Persistent...
