ALL WIGAN SUPPORTERS MUST
1. Wigan must not win a hard fought struggle in appalling conditions, nilling the opposition and scoring 16 points, because that makes for the worst CC Final of all time.
2. Wigan must not get to the final by nilling the opposition and scoring 70 points with a display of attacking rugby because that makes for the worst CC Semi Final of all time.
3. Wigan players must not consider winning the game but devote all their efforts to entertaining neutral fans. Just like all the other teams do...
4. Wigan fans must not mention winning the CC Final, as that is arrogant.
5. Wigan fans must not mention winning the Challenge Cup 19 times, or indeed any other Trophies, as that is very arrogant indeed.
6. Wigan fans must not attend actual games. It is now compulsory to stay at home, watch on TV and moan about how low attendances at games are.: |

But back on topic, died on his terms and done more than anybody could have done. A true hero especially over the last seven years or so. Condolences to his family.

rugby league has lost a true legend today, not for what he did on the field, he was a pretty good player though, but will be remembered for what he did off the field, a true ambassador to our game and an inspiration to many
rest in peace prekky from ALL rugby league fans.

I had no idea he had died until they announced there would be a minutes silence.....it was like a bolt through my heart. A hero to me and many others, and the news brought a tear to my eye. I joined in the applause, because I think he deserves it.

Truly sad day. They really don't make many like him who face adversity and do true battle with it. Everything that has been said about him is spot on - Inspiration - legend - genuine good guy.
The world is a lesser place today
Rest in peace to one of the true greats

The issue I have with renaming the Man of Steel award is that there are legendary players who do not have an award named after them. Naming an award for the person in Rl who does the most in the community or for charity would be a fitting use of his name.

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif |

Life really isn't fair.
Besides his illness lets not forget just what a good player he was, Super League champion and Challenge Cup winner, Wembley try scorer, good attacking full back.
Condolences to his family and friends
RIP

I think Man of Steel is very fitting for him, because his bravery in the face of his illness was truly inspiring and he was a man of steel, RIP Steve. |

Such sad news.
A true hero both on and off the pitch. I was privileged enough to get to watch him play in the black and white and also to meet him in person.
I hope they rename the award but even of they don't his legacy is such that he won't be forgotten for a long time.
