Here's one Englishman shouting for the Aussies.
I hope Gallon chews the Piemen up and spits them out in pieces.

Cant believe how much Cronulla played into your hands, straight down the middle and never looking to challenge your edge defence.

Wane must have been laughing when he realised how Cronulla was gonna play, it shows a great deal of arrogance on their behalf to come over and think they could just kill you down the middle.

It was pretty comfy in the end and I don't think Wigan were particularly amazing ball in hand (except Williams and Bateman)

Didn't challenge our edge defence?! You sure you were watching the right game? I must have imagined Williams and Leuleui making a boat load of tackles.

Some will always try to play it down, that was an outstanding team performance from the history making Wigan Warriors.

Tiresome, isn't it?
Queue the "anyone-but-wigan" brigade and the convicts' decendents whinging about the refs & the weather & the state of the pitch & anything else we enginered to buy the match.
Great defence from us & some really nice plays. They probably turned up expecting a walk-over & then had no plan B, but you can only play what's in front of you.
Well done lads. Just another 3 bits of silverware to collect then icon_cool.gif

Officially RLFAN's most Doe-eyed Happy Clapper. Big Steve wrote: The Internet has provided some wonderful creativity, opportunities and knowledge sharing but it has also given a worldwide forum for people you would leave a full pint behind in the pub to avoid having to listen to them. aboveusonlypie... If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg



Must be a hell of a lot of haters crying in their beer tonight... To$$ers..

Genuine question, is this an attempt at a wind up or how you saw the game?

In particular The first half Wigan got right into Cronulla's faces, were rough and tough but didn't cross the line. They couldn't handle it and lost composure throwing cheap shot, elbows and even pulling hair. Wigan kept their coo and were looking very good at half time. I don't think Cronulla were being arrogant, it was a case of Wigan putting them off their game.

The second half Cronulla were more composed evening the game up, I also think Hicks was a bit more lenient in the second half and they got away with a bit more. Wigan had enough in the tank to hold on though with 20 to go I was feeling a bit worried.

They are not a free flowing team, if you have watched any NRL you will see they tend to take it up the middle and grind teams down. If you expected Cronulla to come over here and throw it to the flanks with gay abandon you are sadly mistaken, that's not how they play.

I think Cronulla were arrogant in that they clearly didn't do too much research and played right into your hands by going straight down the middle until they were in your 20, even the dumbest SL coach knows that to beat Wigan you test their edges and avoid a war of attrition in the middle (exactly what Wane wants)
I know Cronulla are usually quite boring but in the second half when behind they still didn't really throw the ball around, if you did that there would be Wane Out all over this board.

Its funny seeing some of your reactions to my post, I wasn't trolling, just making a point and even wanted you to win the game (really don't like Cronulla), so calm down a bit maybe icon_lol.gif

I just didn't think you had to play that well, you misplaced about 10 offloads and didn't make too many line breaks, but still won comfortably.

In fairness to Leedsnsouths fan I don't think they're far off the mark. I thought Cronulla did go a bit central and I didn't think we were at our best with the ball. We were simply unbelievable without the ball though and built our win on sheer will to go that extra yard for your teammates.
