Are you whistleling the tune of "we are the wiremen"?

39110_1363272058.jpg Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

| Anybody who thinks Carmont and Leuluai are average musn't see enough of them to make judgement. We see the same thing with Lockers all the time. Carmont is one of the best centres in the league and Leuluai is one of the best running half-backs around, look at what he did to saints in the GF.
I can see why people would think Hansen was average because he doesn't do all the fancy stuff, same for Coley and McIlorum really.
Goulding is the definition of average.
Like Bilko said though, who cares what players you have as long as you are winning the title?
We proved last week at Hudds that ever without all of our star players we could still do very well in this league with our 'average' players.
Batesy is also right, with the SC you can't have a team full of world class players unless you buy a couple of gems from Aus and every single young player you bring through turns out to be amazing. We won the title last year because people like Hansen, Coley, McIlorum and Goulding in particular, all did their job to a high standard.

| Wigan's players are all average. Actually can we just agree that all Wigan's players are below average? It much easier to gloat when Wigan win games at the expense of the teams full of world beaters.

23997_1287161421.jpg [quote="Mark"]Great game of rugby league. Fantastic atmosphere, Wigan were breathtaking and dominant in all areas for the first 25 minutes, coupled with us making alot of dumb mistakes,then fortunately they brought McIlorum on which helped us back into the game. I thought some of the tries we scored to get us within two we're out of this world stuff. Towards the end we had to force it a little and we had a few things go wrong, i.e Monas kick on the first for King and Solomona going off who was causing havoc. Wigan were clinical in their eventual execution of us. Proud of Wire today and gave us a little glimpse to the future. Silverwood was awful as per, but I expect no less. Tomkins is a world class player and by far the best english player in SL. Wigan are a champion side and would be a worthy winner of taking our title as challenge cup. Good luck over the next month and a bit.[/quote]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_23997.jpg |

| Well regardless of the petty arguing that may well ensue I genuinely would be loathed to swap Andy Coley for any other Prop in the league if we are looking purely at performances not taking into account age etc. How he does not get an England call up is beyond me.
He pretty much took on and really hurt the St George defence on his own in the WCC. Excellent player in everything he does, very strong carry and his defence is technically spot on but also very hurtful.

| I'd say all of those ARE average aside from maybe Carmont.

IMO Grix, Carvell, Anderson, Myler, Clarke, Higham, Mitchell, Blythe and Evans (for now) are 'average' but you need these types of players to win leagues, it's the squad that matters.

If you think Leuluai is average then baring 2 players Wire has a fully average team.

3076_1671446335.jpg 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 |

| Hansen is one of the first names down on Madges team sheet. That should tell you a lot.

I can see why, he never stops working! And rarely makes a mistake.
