Possibly they have, but even lessons learnt from that will be a challenge to beat Wigan who know who to get the job done. Of course they’ve got a chance but I’d put it at 80/20 in favour of Wigan winning.

Not sure why Wigan winning would be cringeworthy?

Wigan are justifiably favourites on Saturday, but are you offering 4/1 against Warrington?

The reaction from the Sky team if Wigan win will be intolerable. If they do win the game will have been slowed down to a snails pace and as such the spectacle it should be will not happen.

The best chance of a good game is Warrington to take a solid early lead - that will force Wigan into a more open game.

If Wigan get an early lead we might as well switch off.

The Sky team are intolerable all the time so it won’t be any different to normal.

Whilst I get your point about the various patterns/style of the game, again it’s not cringeworthy if Wigan execute there’s and win.

If Wigan execute their plan to virtually kill the PTB then the game will be a terrible spectacle. Hands in, 3/4 men taking 5 seconds to get off etc. if the ref allows that then we will not have a game

Re: GRAND FINAL WEEK : Wed Oct 10, 2018 4:22 pm  

Wigan 1/2 with William Hill
Warrington getting 6 points on the handicap.

Cant see a big score here but this game is all about Wigans defence and whether Warrington can find a way through.

19 - 12 to Wigan

Don't rise to it
Apparently last week wigan would only beat cas if the ref let wigan get away with everything, break all the rules etc.

On redvee both teams in the final are grubby and dirty yet on the wire board it's only us that do it?

Top line, winners will be grinners and the rest can make their excuses.
