Bevan’s try was his 100th for Wigan. Only the 3rd Aussie to achieve the feat for the club

Listened to radio commentary via Wigan tv. Very good from Joe Mills and Bilko. Sounded very windy and no doubt the place lived up to its "Ice Station Zebra" nickname.
Given the circumstances a good win and 8 kicks from 8 by Keighran is excellent.

Draw for the next round a week tomorrow. Let's hope for a home one!

There was only ever going to be one winner in this game but with luck more positives for the coming weeks will be taken from the game

Good to see a nice spread of player scoring too not just the usual suspects so all good

Keighran 8/8 it looked like

This was Wigan’s 4,976th match - edging closer to 5,000

Quite possibly Wigans 4,977th but we will know in a few weeks 😂

Who are the other two Aussies to score 100 tries?

The weather gods in the end were merciful, was cold and windy but the rain held off

Sounded like a good professional performance, apart from the first try we conceded.

Job done.

:D

We dropped a lot of ball from kick offs, I seem to remember the same against Sheffield last year. 2 lead directly to Sheffield tries. Otherwise a decent performance on a freezing night, on artificial grass with less than stellar floodlights! Keighran kicked all conversions. Smith very vocal and lead the team round the pitch well.
