Quote: Grimmy "I'm feeling very confident about this one. Widnes are artificially top by virtue of playing an extra game and not having played any of the form sides yet (except Salford, who beat them). They're going well but I can't see them having enough to break our home record, particularly as we usually spank them at the DW. Our attack looked pretty threatening on Friday too. I'll go 38-10'"

Grimmy by name Grim by nature what a statment to make yourself look a right muppett. you say Widnes are artificially top by virtue of playing an extra game and not having played any of the form sides yet (except Salford, who beat them. Well go on then grimmy tell us the form sides you have played and beaten to be second hmmmmmm you beat huddersfield 18-13 beat widnes beat them 36-18 you beat hull fc 26-25 big win mate lol we widnes beat hull fc 46-6. you beat leeds 28-6 widnes beat leeds 56-12 !!!! you did have that massive win against the dragons mind 12-6 ha ha ha and managed to beat salford 20-16. widnes lost to salford as you stated after going down 22 nil to come back and nearly win 28-20. so i can see where your coming from with all them spankings of form sides you are dishing out lol eusa_wall.gif eusa_wall.gif eusa_wall.gif. I think a bit of respect and honesty wouldent go a miss but as your name suggests grimmmmmmmmmmyyyyyyyyyyyy.Ps i dont expect to beat u hope we do but it will be our toughest game yet and not impossible wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiidnes a026.gif

Good to see you joined this forum to post that rubbish.

Apart from the odd one, most Wigan fans have praised Widnes last night and their fantastic start to the season.

I for one hope you keep it up.

Quote: Grimmy "Well done Widnes, the better side won. We are worse thsn average at 7 and 9. I'd say Smith had a shocker but it's more of a shock to me that he has had a few decent games recently, way out if his depth. I'm not too annoyed about the missed conversions because you can't expect him to nail all three, but his play kicking was terrible all night, he does bugger all ball in hand it off with a knock on at the end when we could have nabbed a draw.'"


Good on you Grimmy, must make it a little harder when the better of the 2 scrum halfs came from your academy. Joe Mellor has been outstanding this season. Teams still think everything we do is through Brown so he has the freedom Kev doesn't.

Widnes were good for the win and that's that. Wigan's 5 from 5 was papering over the cracks a bit for me. We could easily have lost against Huddersfield, Salford and Hull and the opening game of the season in the mud against Catalan could have gone either way. We won those games and the lads deserve credit for playing the full 80 minutes.
We are very limited in attack and Smith offers nothing. One good game a season is not acceptable and I can't believe we can't attract a better scrum half to the club. Powell has been thrust in full time because of MM's injury but again, just isn't up to the task. Logan was a better option at 9 although he has his faults.
We have a lot of quality on the sidelines in ST, JT, MM and Williams but we desperately need to get better in possession.

From an outsiders point of view last year when you were in dire need of a centre I think Wigan missed a big trick not going for Runciman, very astute signing for me

I quite fancied us, Widnes, to turn you over last night as I have been disappointed with your attacking play, when you get within 30m of the line from what I have seen so far, and last night followed suit.

You scored two tries from our mistakes, which were well taken tries, but other than that for all the pressure and possession you had you just weren't clinical enough again.

You definitely aren't the same side without Williams and I think Joel Tomkins is your biggest threat when the ball goes wide.

We're living the dream at the moment so will cherish a long awaited victory like last nights, but can still see it being yourselves and Wire in the Final.

Good luck for the rest of the season, apart from the return fixture obviously.
