There is most definitely a worm-hole to a parallel universe opened up somewhere above LSV. Did anyone honestly see this coming? I mean, second on the ladder & with a more than decent chance of (and I really can't believe I'm thinking this...) doing the double !

I thought the Hurrell celebrations for his 'try' were funny. You can see the logic - act as though you're certain you've scored and if the ref sends it up as a try it's given if there are no angles to see the ball. Problem is it was all too obvious what he was doing and the ref probably gave no try as a result.

It certainly, for me, makes me question what KR is doing at Wigan. From the championship to 2nd in the league - with some excellent signings thrown in for good measure, they've smashed it in a very short time. We however seem to continue to plateau, with next season's signings always being talked about as being the missing pieces. Imagine if we'd have signed
Asiata instead of Mago etc.

What anyone says now may well come back to bite them tomorrow. Hull KR will be a tough game which can go either way.

Whoever gets through will have a job on their hands in the final.

I do have to question the tackling technique of the bloke who did Paasi. I know it’s not technically a cannonball but it’s dodgy imo. He did it a few times, forceful contact direct at the knee, needs to be looked at.

It won't bite me. If we get beat, we get beat but today is for laughing at Saints

If you mean plateau being the CC holders in Peets first season then yes you are right.

Exactly.

First it was Mago and Ellis (props), then it was Wardle and King (centres) and now everyone’s excited about a couple of project forwards, a half decent hooker and a utility back whose had one decent season.

Difficult to build any momentum at Wigan though with our ridiculous turnover of players and loyalty shown to people not good enough.

Dizzying heights & certainly a roll of honour worthy for such a great club like Wigan.

When was our last GF win again?

Re: Saints or Leigh? : Sat Jul 22, 2023 9:19 pm  

Absolutely buzzing for Leigh, made up for Lammy.

Must be a dream for their fans.

Obviously want us to get to Wembley and win but wouldn’t be too disappointed if we didn’t if it meant Leigh winning.

Just so fresh and great for the sport IMO.

Don't worry, mate.

Lenagan's leaving. The dark days are nearly over.

Maybe Danson will bring in Lam.
