Absolutely thrilled we won. The boys did amazing and I think our defence won us that game. We definitely got some favourable decisions from the ref but that’s just the way it goes sometimes. Penrith made some uncharacteristic errors, not kicking on the last for the first 30 mins was strange but the...

Thought the game highlighted the difference in physicality between SL and the NRL. They were on another level. We also got the "rub of the green" more than I can remember a Wigan side ever getting in 40 years watching the team. That said, Wigan really did dig deep and that alone has to be ...

Just glimpses of Hanley and Renouf.

You forget just how good they were.

Interesting that he mentions church, like he's on the straight and narrow path again. Good for him. It makes me think of the many Christian players we've had, such as Inga, Billy Whizz, Bill Ashurst, Shaun Edwards. I'm sure that the direction from their faith helped some, at least, to be better pla...

Players acting like footballers Mikey Lewis comes to mind (semi final last year). Good player but a total grub. EW Yes. Expect more of this type of thing. The Cas (scrum half I think) who went down holding his face for example :evil: Teams will do anything they can to gain an advantage, however sma...

I did say..............

I guess we’ll soon find out. Left to their own devices I wouldn’t trust the RFL to tie their own shoelaces. However, the game has been marketed heavily on Sky. It’s not a “regular “ game. Wouldn’t be surprised if someone from Sky has had a word. Sadly the game we have grown up with is no more. We ha...

Points on the board, but an expensive knight potentially losing Thompson,Leeming,Smith for next week and Field looked a bit iffy at the end. Kicking is better than this time last year. It would have been criminal to let him leave. Not a chance in hell they will ban Smith. If it was a regular round,...

Was just about to post the same.

Great shirt and echos of 1985. However, the huge green logo in the middle means it's a "no" from me.

I have said it before but I honestly believe this is Wigan's season to lose. None of the other teams look to have improved as much as us. In fact, bar Saints, I cannot think of a single team that will challenge this year. I appreciate some may think this is arrogance, and I may well be proven wrong....
