Seriously, you believe nearly 1000 are travelling over? Spin is the art of implying something but not actually saying it......re-read that release and tell me where it says the 700 seats sold......and rember, they are only available from one place, were actually sold to people in Wigan?

Yet why would anyone but Wigan fans buy seats in the Wigan section? What does it matter where they are coming from? |

[b:3v5chy3z]Brian McDermott paraphrased Peter Fox.
"He'd say if we had 13 Bernard Dwyers we wouldn't lose many RL games. It's the same for us with JJB"[/b:3v5chy3z]:38511.jpg |

it doesn't. I simply corrected the poster that said....
Quote: Him "Looks to be a big following going down for the game from Wigan.'"
Positive news that Wigan will have a decent size and no doubt vocal support at the game. Let's hope the citizens of Sydney get behind the game and attend in big numbers. |

look even if 400 wigan fans travel thats still a massive achievement and those fans who do travel deserve a pat on the back, i wish i could go but 4 grand for 2 people is a lot of money for a weeks holiday.
they believe 1000 tickets will be sold for the wigan end I don't believe for a second 600-700 wigan fans live in sydney.

Going 12,000 miles, paying a minimum of 2-3k each (including spending money) to watch a game we're more then likely going to get well beaten in......If 20 people made the effort to go that would have been a fair following. At a guess at least 500 will go from these shores and that's about 498 more then St George brought to our place a few years back.
Top effort.

No you don't get it. Gutters knows someone who doesn't live in Wigan that's bought a seat in the Wigan section. Therefore rugby league is a shambles and needs to be mocked at every opportunity. |

Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png |

Show me anyone that has said nearly 1000 (or even 700) will be [itravelling over from Wigan[/i. I'll help you out, they haven't. |

"A big following going down from Wigan" is not the same as saying nearly 1000 (or even 700) will be travelling over. Twisting people's words again gutters?
FWIW, you must have missed the memo that said tickets for the Wigan section have only been available to Wigan Season Ticket holders up until this morning when they go on general release. But hey, you know a few guys from Auckland going to the game, so the 700 must all be ex-pats scrounging their UK mate's membership passwords  ! |

Well done Wiganers.
Can't remember the last time i was cheering for your lot, probably the last time you went down under actually. Let's hope for a similar result.

| I'm moving to Sydney in Feb and hopefully will catch the game. Haven't bought a ticket yet (hoping for a freebie  ) - any idea of how many are sold altogether? Fair play to the Wigan fans for their big sales so far! |
