Interesting views on here.

I’ve a lot of mates who are Wire fans and they were telling me how they are struggling to have the same dislike for Wigan as they used to.

Likeable local coach, generally likeable playing squad and play a very entertaining brand of rugby.

Think things would be different if Lewis or Welsby played for Wigan or even if Sam Tomkins still played for us.

Likewise vice versa the growth in Wire as a club is great to see. Given young local juniors a chance rather than just buying players all the time (that will reap rewards ina. Few years).

The clubs seem to have a good relationship to, Wigan inviting Wire to vegas, SJM organising Ashcroft and NGallager to play Robin Park etc.


I understand we are the lesser of 2 evils on Saturday and we’ll go back to hating each other next year haha

Could you also make a planning request for car parking that isn't run by the criminal underworld?

AND ask for sufficient leg room in the Stretford End for anyone over 4'10"

I couldn’t care less who wins.

However. It would carry move gravitas if it were the SL champions that get beaten in Las Vegas.

Now we are on the day of the game, I can't stand the thought of Peet, with his painted-on hair and perma-smirk, coming out on top. Especially as he would write a patronising letter to every one of the Hull KR players' mums afterwards thanking them for raising their son (with mini bottle of Loch Lomond whisky).

So it's Hull KR for me. But I'd enjoy it much more if Lewis got sent off for something egregious.

His smirk was absent when we put 40 points on them but agree - especially the painted on hair.
