Ah well, he should know cos not only is he an expert pundit but he referees every Saints game . .

I've heard Hicks has been given the gig!
I hope it's Thaler, he's been the most consistent referee this season. He's fair to both sides, talks to the players constantly & stands no nonsense. So I think he would be aware to Leeds players foibles!

Plus I like him :wink:
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.

that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

He's been easily the best ref this season. Surely he should be rewarded for that with final?
Footballers spend 90 minutes pretending they're injured. Rugby League players spend 80 minutes pretending they're not.

i am concerned re: the reffing

Im not one of the ones who think that the RFL is out to get Wigan but i can see that no-one outside of Wigan wants us to win, and regardless if its intentional or not the ref will have in his mind a controversial decision against us wont land him under as much scrutiny as vice versa

Waney needs to keep his gob in check this week, making sure that he doesnt start spouting words like "aggressive, smash" etc etc

We can win this, ive been saying all season leeds have been a class above but the petrol light is on IMO, we look fresher and better over the last 3 games.

One thing is for sure, we have to be whiter than white, everyone wants us to lose, but we are Wigan the greatest rugby league club in the world and come the final whistle we will be lifting the trophy!
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure

What do you expect him to say "oh dear it's Leeds. We're no chance. Grow up or leave the comments to the grown ups. Ps. Don't know why I respond to pathetic comments like this : : :angry:
Eh? That's a bit harsh. Wlikin was obviusly having a dig at Wigan, and we're right to laugh at him.

Think your response was more pathetic than the original post, and like you said, don't know why you responded as you did. Better off remaining silent.
Typical Jim!!
