They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn, at the going down of the sun and in the morning – WE WILL REMEMBER THEM:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_32481.gif |

Just hope it is a good game for those not taking part and also as an advertisement for the game. Hope Jonathon Davies has some nasty throat infection so I don't have to hear his dross when we watch the game on Sunday.
As for the result, I was told last week that "It's all in the bag!" by a wire fan. Looks like they have surrendered the hub cap and this weekend off will help the Warriors current bunch of players with knocks and bumps. We won't repeat last seasons heroics but I hope the wire bag is empty at the end of the season. Their only hope of silverware this season is the Challenge Cup.
As for who will win it... my head and heart have different answers.
P.S. Evidently Sam Tomkins has a few spaces left in his box at Wembley....

While he went on to become one of the most powerful strike centres RL has ever seen, when he arrived from RU it's fair to say Inga would have been in with a shout for this one.
As for Sorensen, he may have been large but he was a great prop forward and a prime example of the top players that were in that great Widnes side. I'm old enough to remember him playing against Wigan and he always gave our forwards a hard time. I remember standing on the Dougy side and watching him being substituted towards the end of a game after a typically uncompromising performance, and despite the fact that we were going to win the game he received a torrent of abuse from the Wigan fans as he took his seat on the bench. When the noise had finally died down a bloke standing behind me said to his mate, "That Sorensen, what a dirty b£"$%!"*". His mate thought about it for a moment and then said "Yeah, he's filthy but I wish he played for us" and the first guy replied "Yeah, so do I!". | | |

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.......
I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.

Did you know that Kurt actually played for us for a part season in the mid 70s? He was just a kid but had amazing potential, unfortunately at that time Wigan were equally inept both on and off the patch and didn't seem to push hard to sign him permanently. | | | |

Yes I did, though I'm a bit too young to remember him at that stage in his career.
Glad I'm not the only one to rate him. | | |
