Just watched the Sky Sports coverage. And will probably watch it again tonight.


We are the boys.......Still at the top!!

No, I don't think they would. Although such a scenario might just be stretching the bounds of credibility just a touch

Assuming we get to the final and assuming we face NZ or Aus, I doubt either will play as poorly as Hull, regardless of conditions. So I can't envisage England fans celebrating a win achieved in the way yours was. But as the poster I responded to suggested, I certainly wouldn't complain if it was. And I certainly don't begrudge you lot celebrating yours; as I've already implied I'd do exactly the same.

Don't let a rain soaked CC dampen your spirits for the world cup, with the pack we've got we have every chance. Once the next set of fixtures are played all the remarks about the final will be long forgotten, personally I can't wait for that, I've never known so much fuss about a final.

It was a poor final but who gives a . Not our fault Hull were poor.

I have never been so wet following that walk... what a nightmare

I didn't mean it that way. kim jong-il is a Warrington fan and he/she/it was having a go at the game in general and Wigan in particular. As in trying to devalue our 19th Challenge Cup win.

No chance of spirits being dampened, I'm actually looking forward to the WC more than I am the playoffs. Agree fully about the fuss over the CC final, I suspect one reason is that a lot of the neutrals thought that the two teams would be more evenly matched than it turned out. Many other CC finals have disappointed over the years - then again, as a Leeds fan I would say that

It may not have been the best final ever but it was more entertaining than that game last night between two of the top football clubs (Man U v Chelsea)

Quite right Rogues I watched it too and it wasn’t much of a spectacle was it, but if we wait a bit I’m sure someone will point out it was all Wigan’s fault! Still I doubt the papers will say that last night will mark the end of football in this country. (And I don’t think it was even raining)

If you want to waste your time watching Wendyball, expect no sympathy..

Who cares how we played, we won, there is a trophy in the cabinet, there is now the honour of winning the trophy 19 times and that is all that counts no one will give 2 hoots about the performance in a few years nor will they care about the stats e,g missed tackles etc all that matters is the WIGAN Name is again engraved on that trophy base

Exactly. A wire fan on their board said the following:
The records will stand showing 2013 winners as Wigan, not Wigan*

*But they played crap.
