Don't think so - even Sean Long wouldn't have a bet on that! :lol:

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go

Greg Inglis plays for Melbourne.


In terms of a centre playing with his winger though, I would say Gidley is better.

Inglis is more of a strike player IMO. Folau may have something to say about your comment as well though.

There's an article in League Weekly where Gardner says:

I wish I could play along side Gidley until he was 50

I'm sure you wish he could play for England too Ade, so you don't get shown up as the cr*p player that you are :lol:


Ade Gardner is better than any British Leeds or Wigan winger available to them. Ainscough is a brilliant prospect. Hopefully he shines and becomes one of the best! Good luck !

How the hell is Sam only 19?!! he looks like a veteran already and is running the side.

A bad game will be just around the corner and thats when we'll see what he's made of but i'd back him to hit right back.

Superb.

It is so frustrating to be stuck in Milwaukee reading these posts. I have been looking forwards to watching him play and have yet to see it.

OK I guess Bradford were not brilliant but you can only play the team in front of you and this can't have done his confidence any harm.

I hope he is still in the team by the time I get back!

A great talent, with all the right skills, a good rugby brain and heaps of passion for the Cherry & White. He has great balance, a jinking/side-step style of running and is very vocal on the pitch..........all fantastic attributes for someone who is only 19 years of age.

This lad can only get better and better as he grows in confidence as a regular first teamer - I suppose that the challenge will come when teams double-mark him and try to close him down as with Trent.................but if the team plays as it did last night and steps up to the plate as a unit, this will create other opportunities and gaps on those occasions.

As Trent Barrett correctly stated after going back to Australia - Wigan already had his successor in Sam.

It's great to see that there is a core of young Wigan lads becoming established first team players. As Ged Byrne stated in the South Stand Bar before the match, there is no greater pride in pulling on your home team's shirt for the first time - these lad's are now proving that they have got the hunger and pride to do this constantly.

Long may it continue :!:
