Don't let your love turn to hate Now we've got to keep the faith Wigan Rugby League:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_35345.jpg



Won 40-16. A very convincing victory. Wigan were in control the entire game, and had it not been for some slack passes and poor discipline, the scoreline could have been much more favourable to Wigan. As far as I know it means we get a week off, with the Final being 2 weeks today.

Hampshire ran the show again, he really is turning into a very very good player. Forwards were very good as well. The game was marred a bit by a big brawl early in the second half that saw 2 Wigan players and 1 Leeds player sin binned. We may have some suspensions for the final.

With Latics being away to Watford that weekend it means the Stadium is free [We'll be playing Thurs or Fri] hopefully we can host the final there. Otherwise I think it would be @ LSV.

"Games as big as a grand finals define individuals and clubs. Remember we are only renting these shirts, I had my time in Pat Richards shirt. Ellery and Faz had there time in Sean's, Hampo and Radders in Sam's. You have to make a mark in these shirts that's still there the day you hand it over to someone else. So be aware for 80 minutes you are not only playing but also writing history and creating a legacy. How many people get to actually write history, not many. A big stage demands big players, be inspired. You play for Wigan, now go do it. Good luck." - Martin Offiah, 2010.:27588.gif



Hampshire was outstanding. Looks far too good for that level and a massive bonus is he goal kicking ability. Kicked several from the touchline today. This guy needs to be in the first team next season!

Other strong performances from Gildart and Manfredi

With a full team now back on board they should win the competition. Some of the lads at that level are superb. On a poor note I read somewhere we may have a couple banned for the final after a massive brawl (again). That needs sorting.

Where is the final?

You know I've always been a dreamer:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_26368.jpg



The big difference for me was the half backs, Hampshire and Williams were very good for Wigan but the Leeds pair created absolutely nothing.

It would be interesting to know what regulars to the u19s think Williams best position will be when he matures, when you look at him now he seems to be a very big lad who seems to be clever and strong and not lacking in confidence.

Seems the final will have to be played away at the winner of Leeds v St Helens next week.

Having been to most 19's games this season and before I've always favoured Williams over Hampshire even though I believe Hampshire has more to his game than Williams in terms of his goal kicking and ability to play in more than his natural position of stand off but that's been one attribute that a lot of Stand Offs have the ability to fill in at Full Back with little problem, I just enjoy watching Williams more and it slightly irritates me when people report on the 19's games as all they talk about is Hampshire whereas as if not for Williams then Hampshire wouldn't stand out as much for example the Leeds game at the weekend Willliams created several tries one of which was for Hampshire I just struggle to understand why Williams rarely gets mentioned for his major contribution to the side, but that aside both are very exciting prospects and I'm just glad they are in reserve for Wigan and not Saints, Leeds or Wire as both have massive potential both players remind me of younger versions of Sam in as much as you can only see greats things in the future for both players and in my honest opinion Williams will remain at Scrum Half but despite Tierney being around I see Hampshire as the long term Sam replacement and can see Tierney switch to either Wing or Centre.

I flicked through the game on Wigan TV and I must say from a highlights point of view Williams looked like he had a blinder. It was taking numerous defenders to drag him down every time he ran the ball and he put some cracking passes out. I did read somewhere he'd made a few errors with his distribution but if anything I'd say that may have come from an over confidence.

He looks a real talent and I'd be happy to see him getting more games in the first team next year. He looks to have the type of running game that would cause defenders far more problems then Logan Tomkins if we were to throw him in at 9.

Your comment about Williams filling in at No 9 was what I was referring to when I made the comment about him being a very big lad.

It'll only help his first team chances if he's able to play in a few positions. The 7 spot in the side looks sewed up for a few years with Matty Smith's form and Hampshire is a natural 6 so if Williams can make an impact from 9 that could be a spot he can squeeze in to.

Another player who looked an absolute handful in the game was Dom Manfredi. He doesn't do things at half pace does he!
