Games as big as Grand Finals define individuals and clubs. Remember, we only rent these journeys. In my time I had Pat Richard's shirt. Ellery Hanley had Sean O'Loughlin's jersey. Sam Tomkins is wearing Radders' number one jersey. Andy Coley is wearing Shaun Wayne's jersey. You have to make a mark in these shirts before you hand it down to someone else. Hand it back. So be aware for 80 minutes that you are not only playing, but you are also writing history and creating legacy. How many people actually write history - not many? A big stage demands big players…..INSPIRE YOUR TEAM MATES. Martin Offiah MBE, pre-Grand Final Speech, 2nd October 2010.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_33718.jpg

Made his debut in 2004 (not sure against who) played quite well and scored. He then played a week later v Castleford and had a shocker and disappeared never to be seen again.

Dan Sarginson: "This is a fantastic opportunity for me to join the biggest name in the competition" 18/10/2013 Tony Clubb: "This is a new exciting chapter of my life signing for Wigan and I couldn't be happier" 18/10/2013 Romain Navarrete: “I’m very happy to have signed for Wigan Warriors. As soon I knew that Wigan were interested, they were the only team that I wanted to sign for. To me, Wigan is the biggest Club in Rugby League and it will be an honour to pull on the famous Cherry-and-White jersey next year. I look forward to working with Shaun Wane and the players at Wigan.”:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10172.jpg

That Cas game was my first game watching Wigan. Proof that I'm definitely NOT a JCL or a glory hunter, as we were really quite sh11te then!

Quote: MattyB "Shane Varley* from NZ back in the early 80's I believe.

From what I was told he got off the plane at Manchester having reached a gentlemans agreement with Maurice (who was waiting at CP to complete the deal), but was met by Leigh officials at the airport and signed for them instead....???

* I was told this by a group of Leythers at the time so it could be complete bollox.'"



It's true. Maurice learned a lesson from that day in 1983 and from then on Wigan went up and Leigh went the other way (I don't think Leigh have beaten us since 83). Luckily Varley was nothing special at Leigh.

Didn't we officially sign Gasnier at 1 point or am I mistaken?

Quote: jonh "Didn't we officially sign Gasnier at 1 point or am I mistaken?'"


I think there was everything but an official announcement.

Lots of media specualtion fuelled by Gasnier's wage demands at St.George and our chairmans activities in Australia.

Then we officially announced the signing of DV - i believe 'Wigan add Kiwi Polish' was the headline in the Observor.

Iron Man Davies 1965ish was a headline grabbing signing from Welsh RU. He played 1 game. Rumour had it that we had confused him with John Mantle, who played in the same game that our scouting team watched, and who went on to become an all time great with Saints.

Doesnt really count but i think it belongs in this thread.

Can't remember which newspaper but im sure it was either the Observor or the WEP that printed a picture of Andrew Johns when it was in fact Mathew Johns who we had signed from Newcastle.

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
