i'm reading between the lines on last nights game. Wilkin was at the fans forum the night before and current players tend not to show up the night before a game, Alex Walmsley and Burns where rested and it also looked like we played to avoid injuries. I also believe that KC is counting on Leeds winning the title and i think he would rather play leeds away then wigan away.

He'd be a fool not to IMO. Could easily imagine the two of you battering seven bells out of each other in a semi, only for the winner to fold in the final. I'd not be amazed if wigan perform as poorly tonight as you did last, probably due to the hangover from last week's contest.

Not sure what relevance that has. He sat drinking water and left at 8:30pm.

I thought Swift played well for you, although apart from Savelio non of the forwards turned up, really. It may just be me, but I'm not sure what Greenwood does to warrant the hype. He's a big unit, and he runs good lines near the try line, but is his all round contribution good enough?

Could not agree more.

Are your 'not been Champions since 1955' nothing club brining out a DVD about this? Arranging an open top bus parade? Possibly both?

Plenty of nibbles, but like your team can't catch the big one.
