The perception with everyone from outside the Rugby League Community is that Wigan are still the biggest name in British rugby league.

It is a hard pill to swallow but unbelievably true.

He lost the ball full stop. Any other area of the pitch that's a knock on but over the line it's downward pressure. Cack.

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
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

If you add Lynch to our pack instead of Coley it is still lacking an enforcer/leader and would still not be good enough to challenge Leeds and Stains


The enforcer we need is inside Fielden and I think it will come out at some point. We have 2 future enforcers IMO in Prescott and in particular Mossop.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

Never, ever a try.

My other gripe is hoofing the ball dead from 50 metres and the defending side getting a 20 metre tap.

That will be the next rule change the Aussies will introduce imo to force the kicker to find either touch or keep the ball in play. Ball back if it is kicked dead. Fair play to Gold Coast though the tactic kept Slater out of the game today.

Fielden won't ever be an enforcer for us, he is not feared by anyone and rightly so as he is the biggest tart at Wigan.

Prescott will be a fantastic player providing injuries and he has decent back up in the front row alongside him. If there is an enforcer inside him it won't come out for a few years yet.

Mossop should make his name as a back rower for us first and add some much needed size there. I can see him playing the type of role Fletcher did in a couple of years but I would like to see him develop into a Fletcher/Ellis type 2nd rower. Again if there is an enforcer in him it won't be out for a good while yet

That's your opinion but I am sure we can both agree he will never be an enforcer for Wigan
