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

My wish list would be:

Briscoe

Matty Orford or Brett Kimmorley

Overseas prop - Possibly Cayless

Backrower Sephen Wild

That way we would be adding 2 overseas and 2 wigan lads who should have never been allowed to leave.

I can help but think we will end up with Paul Johnson and Lee Gilmour


If we signed 4 of them and got rid of Riddell, that would be awesome, although i cannot help think that Riddell and Roberts will come good.

I think Lee Gilmour would be good for us.

Wigan vs Leeds finals aggregate score.

Wigan 178 - 64 Leeds

Wigan wins - 6 Leeds wins - 0


I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubblegum.

Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight!

I suppose if each of us are listing players that we'd like to sign that are actually possible rather than make-believe, I'd go for.

N Cayless

S Ratchford

S Tronc

I think there pretty much self explanatory, I'd play Cayless fluctuating between frontrow and secondrow, I'd stick Ratchford at six with Tronc upfront. I've gone quite minimalist not bringing in to many players as to leave places for are up and coming youngsters, there personally signings that are in my opinion very much achievable.

N Cayless

F Pritchard

R Myler

OR

S Tronc

N Hindmarsh

R Myler

If we got the latter we could have Hindmarsh as Myler's 'protector' and hiding all his defensive incapabilites

I didn't know Hindmarsh or Pritchard were available, If I had the choice I'd probably go more for Pritchard he's in the prime of his career at only 25, plus he's not an Aussie so would come over at a younger age and play with passion that we know Kiwi's do.

Hindmarsh is defo not available, made captain at Eels for him to stay, believe he will finsih his career there IMO.

Pritchard is out of contract next year, but with the right offer I think he could be a SL player next year. :PRAY: If sometimes you watched Hock with your mouth open, you should watch this guy!!

It seems that neither are available :lol:

I thought Hindmarsh was off contract and thought he would be brilliant as our pack leader kind of thing. Genuine hard working forward who is an absolute monster in defence and makes very good metres. Would of been great a role model for our young forwards. But he has resigned so not going to happen :cry:

Pritchard has said he would listen to offers from super league and with his contract up at the end of next season if we could put in a good offer we would have a chance IMO. Unbelievably talented, would put bums on seats.

You make it sound as though I chose either/or of these 2. I think we need 2 forwards, a leader and a monster. That's why I chose a mix of Hindmarsh/ Tronc or Cayless/Pritchard.

The best way to do that is be a winning team not sign a player.

Not saying it isn't mate but it takes longer to build a winning team than sign a player. Just saying it would be an added bonus were we to get him
