I don't care who wins next week. I used to want us to be the first outside the 4 to win it, but I don't care any more. We'll win it one day.

Only one crying was Lewis when they put a montage of his contributions on the big screen.

I couldn't in good faith say I wanted Wigan to win if they were playing an Alien XIII for the future of our planet, but would definitely tolerate a victory for them over the other choices.

As is Joe Burgess, laughing on TV that he didn't ground the ball mind you, the rules are a joke so he's every right to laugh.

Only if there's an erasure tribute act on. God what an embarrassing 'anthem', the crowd can't even sing half of it because it's so high pitched.

I think all sour grapes need to be set aside here, as much as I think Lewis is a nob, the game as a whole is absolutely desperate for a new name on the trophy. Wigan again would be a travesty. Perhaps Hull Kr or Leigh winning will open the floodgates up finally. So yeah, Hull KR for me. We were done over by the ref, not them.

I want Leigh, primarily cus they beat us twice this year so no qualms seeing them go on to win it. No doubt they'll poop the bed tonight and it'll all be 'one game too many' in their streak but we'll see.

I don't hate any Wigan players as much as I hate Mikey Lewis though. Indeed if Leigh do manage to win tonight, then as much as he's an attention seeking helmet, even Derek Beaumont is more likeable than Mikey Lewis.

Er, no

Wigan, so i can see that horrible little grub cry.

not even a question for me.

I heard some of Wires fan base was pathetic but there's some folk here outdoing themselves. imagine hating a young lad who's got more talent in their left foot than they'd ever produce in their lives!
Didn't Eamonn Mcmanus bang on about a Knowles try in the CC final against you lot once cant remember the incident in full?! But Bet there was silence on here.

They've caused the 3rd tier to be opened for the first time in years apparently so doesn't seem like they're doing too badly

You would have thought Erasure would come cheaper than the tribute act about now.

I want Wigan to utterly destroy Hull KR. I'm not usually a vindictive man, but in this instance, I want Hull KR to lose so heavily that Lewis weeps on the pitch, sobs inconsolably all the way home, and then develops alcohol and urinary incontinence problems in the off-season.

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
