I can only assume it's due to family or his liking of Pizza. Other than that I haven't got a clue. |

Superb. |

Our coaches coach the technical ability out of them and until we produce players that have flair and genuine talent we will never win a major international tournament whether our coach is English or foreign.'"
Dodging all them mopeds will be doing wonders for the footwork skills. |

Told me the other week his gran is Italian.
Great to see so many opinions from people who didn't see the game. It was a friendly and played as such, lots of messing about with players coming on/off and changing positions. There's lots to improve on but we will be a completely different team next Saturday in terms of intensity. |

Who knows maybe after a successful World Cup, Berlusconi might be watching and think why not set up a Super League franchise. I'm sure he would get on well with Nigel Wood and Brian Barwick. Could you imagine the intensity of those great European nights when the Wigan Brigantes go down to Milan and meet the Ultras, flares in the stadium, smoke bombs, everyone with scarves over their faces, it would be electric. |

I think some of Wigan's women supporters would frighten the life out of any Utras & riot police.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

Something certainly frightened the Wire supporters at Old Trafford, a lot of empty seats at kick off, and thousands more with ten minutes left to full time.  |

The England / ireland match at Hudds has now sold out apparently. And it looks as though other matches are filling up quickly. Looks like very good news for income, TV audiences, and RL publicity in general.

If the world cup is a big success, perhaps it will nudge the Aussies into enlarging the WCC and getting TV rights sold internationally. |

btw I was one of those at the England v Italy game yesterday.
Chris Hill had a decent game when he came on, one of a very few who could be pleased with his performance.

Perhaps the hot weather training in South Africa didn't prepare them well for a thunderstorm in Salford. Just a thought.
