As a neutral I enjoyed it

So many positives to come out of today.

1. The grind - although Dufty scored, Warrington had nothing left to give and looked physically shot. We are just horrible to play against with the intensity we seem to maintain in game.

2. Eckersley - important we have the pathway into the team that Peet talks about and I’m glad he didn’t shove a second row in as he would’ve done in the past. Didn’t seem in any trouble at all and will hopefully go on to be a mainstay down the line.

3. Smith AND French - cemented themselves as the best pairing in the game over here now they’ve done it in the big games so consistently.

4. Miski and Marshall - Can’t wait to see their stats, they took us upfield more than I think I’ve ever seen them do and gave us the platform for Smith to control the game.

5. Thompson - The Rolls Royce of props we hoped we’d signed. Special mention to Cooper, that run in the second half carrying Warrington players on his back was some effort. I don’t think Hill offers that impact through the line yet.

I don’t think we’ll ever look back on it as a classic but it’s got a special place in history with us having all of the trophies in our possession. Hope everyone enjoys their night wherever they are.

Thought Luke Thompson was absolutely sublime today, easily had his best game for us so far.

I don’t want to say much because I have had a few sherries but I just wanted to add that Faz rolled back the years today.

As said, we never looked like losing. Great effort from the pack. and Marshy had to be close to MotM for a great effort. We have a side to be proud of.

You just did a total job on Wire and never let them get going….i know French,Smith and Field get all the plaudits week in week out but Thompson has been your best signing and is your player of the year so far imo,he has been immense and plays big minutes,I was a bit wary of the signing with his injury and concussion issues down under then missed the WCC due to a his but my god,some then he has just got better and better.

After watching it back it really is tough to pick someone out but an honourable mention to Ellis who never took a backward step and it's a pity Mago didn't get more minutes he was causing havoc with the ball in hand, can only assume after the Faz try MP decided to defend it out which is more than fair enough

It was a classic finals performance. Totally dominant. The defence won us that (and won it comfortably) and on the back of that it only took a couple of flashes of brilliance in attack to put them to the sword. Ellis was immense and Field has become the best creative fullback since Tomkins. His pass for Faz's try was sublime and isn't getting the attention it deserves although that's probably because of Faz's great line and finish.

Professional to a man yesterday. Wire will play better, no doubt, but credit needs to be given in part to Wigan's defence. They were frustrated and mistakes always come on the back of frustration.

Holders of all 4 trophies now and who would bet against them winning all four in a season? 2 down 2 to go. Some team this!

Field might not have been blasting through defences this season but he’s really worked on the creative side of his game and is becoming a really well rounded fullback. I thought he was outstanding yesterday.

Much has been made of Warrington being a young side but 12 of the Wigan players were younger than their Wire counterpart. It's frightening to think what this group could achieve.

George Williams can put that larger trophy cabinet on hold for another year.

I love this trend of “Wigan comfortably win a final therefore it’s the worst/dullest final ever” from saints fans.

To a man outstanding today.

Get teams in a grind

French/field magic to unlock defences to get a lead

Use Smiths kicking game to keep the lead.

Simply plan but so effective. Our defence was a brick wall.

Was very satisfying after hearing all week how good Dufty, Ashton, Walker, Fitzgibbon and Vaughan are. Their counterparts of Field, Marshall, O’Neill, Farrell and Thompson showed they are levels ahead.

The George Williams saga gets funnier and funnier. He’s latest story of “Wigan offered more than Warrington” was great. Wigan lad, boyhood wigan fan, wigan players for about 10 years suddenly decided he wants to write history with Warrington, deffo not about the money George. Keep your cringe social media posts up and we’ll keep lifting trophies. He was dire today for such a marquee player.


Kaide Ellis is an unsung hero.

Marshall and Miski superb.

Eckersleys tackle to force an error on Fitzgibbon was a brilliant moment.

Love the whole vibe of the club, even down to a young lad like Junior, was “it’s great to win, we’ll enjoy but jobs not done”. They want all 4 this year and to be dominate.

These are the days guys. It’s our time currently so let’s enjoy this team whilst we’ve got it.

Funny how things work out, we lose in just a couple of seasons Ruston Bateman Nicholson K P-P and and it's bloody hell what's going on and up steps Junior, he might never have got a chance without the aforementioned leaving.

Harry smiths game management was first class and he nailed all the conversions.
Forwards controlled this game backs put it to bed.
Great try from Faz and Bevan but the young Zac thrown into the deep end and to score a try fantastic,well done Zac.
I am so happy to be a Wigan fan.
Thanks Matt,Rads,lockers and Tommy you have and are doing this club and Town proud,may it continue.

To save on cleaning bills for the cabinet they could share one between them and St Helens and take turns in cleaning all the silverware together (the key's,lock,hinges etc).
