Slightly o/t but have the plans to move the away game to anfield/goodison fallen through? The Wigan site says the game is at Widnes.

AFAIK the game is to be played at Widnes though there are rumours going around St.Helens that they might play at Goodison.

The only thing better than beating Saints is beating Saints in a final.

the feeling when we beat them at KR for the last derby was just pure pride (and a bit of relief)

the feeling when we beat them in the GF was pure relief and overwhelming pride.

It makes it worthwhile being a Wigan fan for moments like those!

Nothing else matters. The atmosphere after the game in Edinburgh and after the last dery at KR explains it all.

More than just two points. It's a permanent 'loss' to Wigan etched in the history books for eternity. Bragging rights till the next encounter. Defeat is not an option.

It means more than twice as much as any other game - Not only do you take the usual pride and joy from the victory, you take just as much pride and joy in their loss and suffering, and also sense relief that their loss and suffering is not yours.

Beating Saints as a Wigan fan means everything.

Pride. Passion. Blood. Sweat. Tears.

The best derby in Rugby League. Leeds v Bradford? Hull v Hull KR? No comparison.

Defeat isnt an option.

Beating Saints means waking up the next day and then smiling instead of waking up and then getting that sick feeling in the pit of your stomach as you remember the result.

Just get that warm glow inside.

Let's be honest, they've bossed it over the last decade, and barring the odd result they have well and truly had the upper hand. It has been a barometer of how far behind them we have been. Just get the feeling that it is hopefully our turn to sit in the driving seat for a while, and see how far ahead of them we are? Or am I getting carried away?

We are favourites for all competitions at the start of this season for the first time in a long time. Really hope we kick on and play to our potential so we can have the bragging rights back for a few years. We will see.

no big deal any more....possibly down to the fact we got to playing them 4 times a season , which took the edge off it imo.

i get more of a buzz beating leeds
