He's not the only one...
Quote: Spannerz "Wigan, already without long-term casualties Pat Richards and Thomas Leuluai, were made to pay the price for resting star asset Sam Tomkins.
And they were without four forwards, Paul Prescott, Jeff Lima, Harrison Hansen and Gil Dudson.
'"
No mention of any of our injuries though, great analysis.

Others/MINOTAUR.JPG Crude and slow Whino, your attack was no better than that of a clumsy child.:Others/MINOTAUR.JPG |

| Sky really are pathetic at times, we've barely had 17 fit players all season!
Fantastic performance by the boys and hats off to Mick Potter.
As good as any play-off win in my book.

I didnt say you didnt have any injuries, I was merely responding to a couple of posters who seem to think we had none either.
You want to know what happened tonight ?
A combination of things :
1. Wigan played Monday.
2. Wigan were very poor.
3. Bulls players playing for their mortgages /next contract
4. Mr Roby sending off Mickey Mac for one punch.
It matters not, we still remain top.
I hope you remain in SL.

39110_1363272058.jpg 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

| Bradford showed guts but they are still a poor side.
Without the sending off we would have won that game despite playing awful. The decision from the ref to allow that try just before half-time baffled everyone, including the bulls players. That meant the bulls led at half-time. Well done to Bradford for digging deep.
Bradford fans were the best at the DW since we moved there.

| Nobody cares about Wigans injuries, who got sent off or how bad of a side they think Bulls are. Can only play whats in front of us and we were the better team on the day.

| Just got back. That, tonight, is why I watch rugby league, why I watch Bradford, and why this club must survive. The atmosphere in the stand was something else, we've celebrated and sang in finals less than we did tonight.
It was an absoultely fantastic performance by all the players and the fans in the circumstances. (not interested in how wigan played poor/man down/injuries blah blah so don't even bother. The wigan fans I spoke to afterwards were excellent, took the defeat for what it was and wished us well)
Our players never took a backwards step, the fans sang from kick off to after the final whistle, all the players and staff came over to the fans after the final whistle and celebrated like we'd won the cup...simply awesome, a real "I was there" night.
So, it was one of the best nights I've had following bradford, but it was also one of the worst, when the players finally stopped dancing and singing in front of us and walked off, and we stopping cheering and singing(seemed a long time after the final whistle) I turned around and saw more than one person close to tears, with a "what now?" "what if thats the last time?" kinda expression. And I walked back to my car feeling empty.
I don't know what to do now.... But I know it involves a drink and plenty of hoping.

| Yeh I saw quite a few people in tears or close to tonight. I'm not usually easily moved but I felt pretty close to a few tears this evening. So proud of this group. And who knew Tommy Burg could sing and dance?
