Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

We were totally dominant for the first half, by far the best rugby we've played this season. The lads played for each other and really enjoyed the game.

Hull came out in the second half really fired up and we fully expected them to rip into us, but we scored first, after only a few mins, and that just deflated Hull. Unfortunately, we seemed to go off the boil a bit after that and although we scored a couple more tries (as well as one being disallowed), we also let Hull score a few tries too.

Still, a great game and only two games left now, this season. Gateshead away and Bradford at home.

Yep, generally years 10 and 11 at school. It's worth getting down to some of the games, the intensity is excellent and there are definitely some names to bear in mind for the future

Well done lads
I have supported Wigan RL since the late 80s. First game was a cup tie v Barrow. Also a fan of football and Speedway. Have a varied taste in music.
