The truth is that neither team was on fire attack-wise, which is most likely a symptom of it being early season. But Wigan were sterling in defence - and that did the trick.

Great to see us secure some silverware already in 2017, but the real pleasure re. this thread is thinking how the prat who started it must now feel (Ant by name, ant in terms of personality), and sing about the contribution from Mr Predictable over in Leeds. Our edges WERE tested in actual fact, particulary Tierney's wing in the first half - I know, because I was on that corner-flag and several times my heart was in my mouth at the action taking place just in front of me. But I don't totally blame our no. 1 visitor from over the Pennines for being frustrated. This year, thankfully, it was champagne all round for the British lads, and yet his own team were not only nowhere near it, but they look like they're a long way from being anywhere near it for quite some time.

Delighted you had such a wonderful afternoon then. Are you hoping for jelly along with the cake when your 3rd birthday arrives?

One time to put club loyalties to one side and stick up for our own. I was delighted that your team won on Saturday
and that they played so well

Oh dear, isn't hindsight a wonderful thing.

Dear Mods, make this a "sticky", leave it on the front page all year

Fair point but last year they did attack from deep occasionally with Bird and Barba (who granted is no longer there). It just felt like they assumed that all they had to do was get down your end and they could score, but your line defence rarely makes mistakes and when attacking Wigan you are much better going at their edges earlier.

BTW why do you care if other fans wanted you to win or not? I wanted you to win but that was mainly because SL have been embarrassed the last couple of years and I don't like Cronulla anyway. To be honest I don't think I will remember the scoreline past next weeks SL games.

I don't buy into the Sky promoted 'all together for SL' attitude, especially when half the England team plays in the NRL anyway.
