Re: If I Was To Name My Greatest Ever Side... : Sat May 09, 2020 9:37 pm  
My rugby memory only goes back as far as about 96, so judged it from there.

1. Radlinski
2. Robinson
3. Connolly
4. Renouf
5. Richards
6. Barrett
7. Lam
8. Cowie
9. Newton
10. O'connor
11. Bateman
12. Betts
13. Farrell

Subs
14. Mcilorum
15. O'loughlin
16. C. Smith
17. Fielden

Would have included the likes of Edwards, Offiah and skerrett, but just don't really remember them playing for us, wanted to judge from who I've seen live and not past games on YouTube.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.......

I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.

Radio 5 Live, Sat, April 14th, 2007,...Dave Whelan, "In Wigan, rugby will always be king"

'I was certain, positive, convinced, and yet..........unsure'

'It's only rock 'n' roll, but I like it'

Worry will not prevent destiny from unfolding.

Tuigamala
Haughton

Fielden

Very hard to leave out Connolly, Craig Smith, O'loughlin, Henry Paul, O'Connor, Hock, Bateman and Gilmour who i think was vastly under rated and Wigan should never of let go.

Haughton is in there because for all of his faults in defence he was the most devastating wide running forward ive ever seen and he could even do it against the Aussies. He could break the line even against the toughest defence
