I'd forgotten how good Barry Ward was at NEARLY making tackles.

Great memories watching that earlier. The last ten minutes were as close as I’ve got to feeling like any of these sports repeats are real these past few weeks. It all felt pretty tense!

The young lads were great but what an effort by the likes of Newton, Lam and Craig Smith.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg

Watching that I also realised how much I underrated Terry O'Connor.

Danny tickle was great, he was fantastic for Wigan for 3 1/2 seasons and people forget just how young he was, as well as playing above his weight.

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid. Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal. Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif



How good were Craig Smith, Terry O'Connor and Danny Sculthorpe? They put our props to shame, especially Craig Smith and his work-rate, unbelievable.

Also, it showed how good rugby league can be with minimal input from referees, no shouting hold/set/go, no penalties for the slightest thing, no wrestling and no same move time after time. It was great to watch.

Craig Smith after a very average first season, was absolutely immense. I can't remeber many better during my time watching Wigan.

Danny Sculthorpe was one I was gutted about that never really made it. He was tough, but he had a great rugby brain.

His offloads were sublime.

You watched him that day and he was every bit and probably more skilful than his brother. His handling skills were immense and like Paul, he had that ability to bust the line by ducking under a challenge. I think his diabetes may have played a part in him not getting to the very top. It certainly wasn’t a lack of talent.

Scully was fantastic for us, his offload game was surreal and his go forward quality. It’s a shame he never hit the heights he should have done but as others said it certainly wasn’t down to lack of talent or attitude.

Also got to agree with Rogues about Terry O’Connor, he was very much underrated for us and a great prop forward.

Yeah but Farrell was far superior to Sculthorpe senior so who cares.
