Quote: NickyKiss "Hard to say if there is much talk of it on the Sky coverage as I've been at the games but there seems so little talk across the game about a potential Grand Slam. I think the desperation to see a new name on the Grand Final trophy is just knocking it in to the long grass. I know a couple of Leeds legends were bowing out in 2015 but we heard nothing else all season apart from them going for a treble and this would be a bigger achievement, with it including a win over an Australian side many say are one of, if not the best NRL team of all time.

Make no mistake, these Wigan players need to win 2 games to put themselves right up there with some of the best achievements the game has seen. Opportunities like that do not come around very often, if ever.'"


It would be an outstanding achievement particularly as you say the distraction of the WCC and the injuries to French and Field. If you do go on and do it then I won't have any hesitation in saying its up there with anything else

However here comes the but... Its a bit naughty to expect rival fans to laud your achievement when Wigan fans (not saying you necessarily) have put our 4 in a row achievement down to a) Covid and b) a poor quality SL.

You can't have it both ways.

I asked about the media, I expect nothing from opposition fans.

On the Sky coverage it seems that Hull KR are their darlings - Wigan get grudging praise but several times they had to mention the two yellow cards for Hull KR and how different it could have been....etc etc. Think they would absolutely love it if Hull KR did win the GF.

Even the performance last night Wigan were getting some criticism because they did not rack up 70/80 points each half, especially from the commentary team - Dave Woods needs some new glasses how often does he get players names wrong - he even mixed up Marshall and Eckersley at one point!

Well done and congratulations on winning the league.
Impressive throughout the season and well deserved.
My prediction at the start of the season you would win the CC, LLS and GF is coming to fruition.
Whoever you play in the final should make for a good game.

Fair enough, I thought you meant across the game
