Not sure who remembers or is aware of the Wigan vs Warrington game of 1989 in Milwaukee

But i was fortunate enough recently to an interview with Harry Edgar for a podcast in which he talks about the game.

It would be good to get to peoples memories of the game.

This topic is brought up every couple of years so a search through old posts, both here and Wigan board, will give you a lot of info.

Remember one comment from an American watcher went along the lines of 'you can hear the bones crack on impact and they don't even use pads'

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

Hanley and Boyd both flew back to Australia straight after the game. Rumour has it that they continued their "discussions" at the airport.
