The majority of Wire fans will not want Wigan to win, why would we?

I hope they give a good account of themselves but Roosters all day long for mine.

Don't see what the big deal is personally, I'm pretty sure Wane won't be going over there without getting any sort of opinions on the way the Roosters play and like someone has said, Robinson will have more than enough experience playing against us. I think it could be seen as a bit childish that the coach of an English team is trying to help the aussie team but it's probably more about the papers making something out of nothing. but that's sport I guess, And in all honesty I don't think the Roosters need much help beating us anyway. I'm honest enough to admit that with both teams at their best you would fancy the roosters every time.

So just suppose for a moment it were NZ Warriors against Wire. You'd be cheering us on against Sam?

Which former Wire player is playing for The Roosters?

There isn't one

No way am I supporting Wigan. Whatever next?

i was cheering for leeds when ryan hoffman was playing against them. I would hope sam had a good game but still would want super league club to win. fed up of the aus arrogance

I don't see why your real rivalry isnt with Widnes, youv'e a lot of achieving to do and less of being the bridesmaid before you reach the dizzy heights of being on Wigans radar. Good luck in your quest for success or defeating your demons however you want to see it! Wigan for everything this year!

Very fair (and generous) comment. I must say that I always enjoy watching the WCC but have no preference for the SL or NRL side going into the game

Therefore I expect that Wigan aren't going to train with NRL clubs, research how the Roosters play, and set up drills in training with a set of players playing like the Roosters?

It was fantastic the Roosters hosted us for as much as they did, it was the least we could do.

Wot a load of complete tosh.

Warrington season ticket holder of 20+ years .... so what ... I will be cheering on The Pie as representatives of our league ...... gulp ....Come On Wigan ...

I certainly won't!!

"Shaun Wane's got a bag on,
Hip, hip hooray,
Shaun Wane's got a bag on,
'Cos we're Roosters for a day"

Shaun Wane is the Wigan mentality personified - blinded by self-importance, bombastic, insular and with a superiority complex only lessened by a rampant paranoid persecution complex

His comments about Saints in the build up to their game last year laid bare his true psyche, and instantly swung neutral opinion against him. Of course, they don't care and it all fuels their "Everyone-hates-us-we-don't-give-a-stuff" mantra but if he really thinks Wires pretending to be Wigan is going to undermine his prep then they are clearly already lining up their excuses.
