Cant help but wonder what if Josh Perry wasnt injured. I think he could have really levelled the game up even more.

Still, as a Wiganer I'm happy to get back to Wembley but good game to all involved - nobody let themselves down.

Thought your team did you proud today, superb performance that pushed us all the way. It's good that this side of the Pennines seems to be on top now with ourselves, you and Wire.

Yeah, but it would be mighty interesting to see how you'd cope with O'Loughlin and Tomkins out against Wire or Saints.

But they are not, despite all the dirty tackles people make against Sam in particular... How many times was he tackled in the air?... You really are sad...

Defence in the first half won it for Wigoons, Saints had enough ball in the first half to be in front at the break, but Wigoons excellent defence held firm.
Not much in it in the 2nd half, difference was Sam Tomkins.
Just hoping we don,t have any injuries as we can kick on for the play offs.

Just wondering if Eastmond would have made a difference.

Look Scouse people I posted before the game, stop all this hollow we are good enough posturing.
You are has beans and either the All Stars or Wigan would have beaten you today.

Eh come on, I've been very fair in praising Wigan throughout the thread. It's undeniable that you have had a fair share of luck when it comes to lineups for big games recently.

And, if you were "near perfect" and lost, as a RL fan you must have really enjoyed the RL you watch today.... Or are you really a one-eyed, sad git?
