Can we finish top 6

<t>Just looked at Wigan observer and shown Londons next 3 fixtures<br/> <br/> We could go above them in the next 3 weeks (depending upon results)<br/> <br/> We then however have Leeds, Saints - both at home and Huddersfield away (not a happy hunting ground recently)<br/> <br/> Does anyone feel we ha...

Re: is it time for a bigge...

<t>how about super-duper-mega league <br/> <br/> (reminds me of american sports)<br/> <br/> Some football idiot on text the other day had nothing but bad things to say about RL<br/> <br/> He is obviously happy with diving, cheating, over paid prima donnas with no respect for referees<br/> <br/> Clai...

Re: A Bit of Challenge Cup...

Sorry Geoff I'll get my dad ont tinternet for you

I can only go back to 84, which still seems a long way compared to some other posters

Must admit from some of the videos I've seen Billy Boston would have still been a legend in this current era

Re: Best Wigan player ever...

<t>For some unkown reason I am going for an unsung hero of the recent past<br/> <br/> Nicky Kiss<br/> <br/> Not classy like Kenny, Hanley etc who are genuine world class players<br/> <br/> But you could guarantee that if your opponent was on your line in a promising position then Nicky would come ou...

Re: A Bit of Challenge Cup...

Another great quote from the final from Alex Murphy

"he could side step on a thrippeny bit this fellow"

"he's not come over for a holiday"

Cue John Ferguson as he skinned the Hull winger on the outside

Re: A Bit of Challenge Cup...

<t>my 1st ever Wigan game was the 84 final. Not much for me to remember a little too young<br/> <br/> Went to what I believe is one of the greatest finals ever in 85. Quote Ray French " what are wigan doing throwing the ball around in front of the sticks" 10 seconds later the biggest smile ever to g...

Re: Media Coverage

<t>What with "Steve 'Rugby League Ryder'" and Clare Baldwin covering it on the BBC.<br/> <br/> Next we'll have Gary Lineker and Lawro<br/> <br/> I had BBC GMR rugby league hour on last week coming home from work. Excellent hours rugby debate<br/> <br/> They had Alex Murphy and Daniel Anderson on. Th...

Unions Loss - Leagues Gain

<t>Have just read my Sunday paper and have read an article about loss of revenue at Twickers<br/> <br/> They have lost around 25% revenue due to poor performances at National level and also due to the poor Lions showing in NZ<br/> <br/> Does anyone know if the RL are doing anything to capitalise on ...

Re: Harlequins

<t>Dont agree that they get any favouritism at all<br/> <br/> I am pretty sure the fans of Workington, Barrow etc are all pretty P*ssed as well as they have not really had a sniff at super league<br/> <br/> As most of the posts have said the general consensus is that London have had more than a fair...

Re: Harlequins

<t>What I cant understand is why they cant attract the crowds<br/> <br/> They are playing good rugby<br/> <br/> The amateur game in London is thriving<br/> <br/> I appreciate that they have moved grounds quite a lot over the last few years and this may have something to do with it<br/> <br/> I am ve...
