Agreed, fantastic moment. I left just after to get the 22.03 train to Manchester as I would be getting home over seventy minutes later if I didn't, so I missed the lap of honour, but seeing Moz lift that shield was spine tingling.

Let's hope there's even bigger things to lift in three weeks...

In a nutshell the Wire industry that used to be in Warrington are intertwined.

I thought wire was invented by two scotsmen fighting over a penny.
Interesting......Wolves defense was bloody inspirational

Quote: Durham Giant "originally called the , " WIREPULLERS", not sure when it was abbreviated but deffo after 1950'"

More specifically, back in the days when the sport was part time and the players were working 'hard' jobs locally, wire pulling was a major (the main?) industry in the town, thus, it would be a safe bet that the majority of the players were full time wire pullers playing Rugby in their spare time.

I don't think we'll ever get team nicknames based on local industry ever again. Could you imagine it? every team would end up being called "the phone monkeys", given that call centres is all we seem to have anymore!

The way your lot are playing the game right now is an absolute joy to watch, as well as being a nice antidote to the spoiling, slowing brand of RL that has emanated out of some clubs in recent seasons. As a neutral, I can confidently say that if every coach aspired to play the way that Tony Smith has got Wire playing, the whole competition would be signifcantly improved as a spectacle.

Enjoy it - I know I would. icon_cheers.gif
