23 - 20 - 4 Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png



He's the new Iro, absolute beast. I felt sorry for those young Wolfs getting roasted, they just couldn't handle him.

I bemoaned our lack of X factor players earlier in the season but things are starting to look a bit different now. We've got threats all over the field and things are starting to click. I still believe we are a Blake Green short of silverware but I expect we'll make at least a final this year on current evidence.

[quote="Frank Zappa":1sacjrvf]Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe.[/quote:1sacjrvf] [quote="The_Enforcer":1sacjrvf]Most idiotic post ever goes to Grimmy..... The way to restart should be an arm wrestle between a designated player from each side.[/quote:1sacjrvf]:



Quote: jimlav "Rocky dropped a couple of bombs and didn't have his best game, but i think his instinct of when to support a break and his general play out the back is pretty impressive even in his poor games. Completely different style to Bowen. Would like to see him at 6 sooner rather than later, but not sure Williams will be going anywhere after yesterday. Smith to sit out and Williams to 7 maybe?'"

That's what I'd be going with next season to be honest, Smith off the bench at 9, or if things aren't clicking in the halves he can come on there

Ideal chance to try Rocky and Williams at halfback against Wakefield, this would give Smith a rest and considering the amount of rugby he has played over the last 2/3 years he looks like it would do him good.
It would give Bowen the chance of a game as well, because if we don't give him a game soon he may just up sticks and head off home early and then if Rocky gets injured we are short at fullback.

No Smith no kicker! Although that shouldn't be too much of a concern at Wakefield. When Thornley comes back we have the option of Sarginson at fullback.

Anyway, now that we are doing ok I can't understand why people want to start moving the team around. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

Gelling was both outstanding and entertaining last night. I was also pleasantly interested to find out that the only players in the whole of Super League to make more meters this year than Gelling are Hardaker and Walmsley.

Quote: Wigan Peer "It's a long season, and we have a lot of kids in this team... Bowen is a handy guy to have in the squad...

Year of the wolfs... again?'"


Correct in my view. Bowen is not finished here.
