I think that's how most of us would rank, them, NSW, but I also think it's fair to say the gap between Burgess and Marshall is narrowing.

Bird, Garcia and Yaha banned, Myler fined but with the way he went off holding his shoulder I'd be surprised if he played anyway.

We can't complain with that. I'd never wish injuries on players but I've no qualms with a few bans!

Bird is a huge loss for them.

Agreed, and two of the bans were for running in and punching, stupid but most welcome.

We three are going with CFW/CST, flying out Friday, returning Monday. Staying in Lloret and we're on coach 3. Great to see 1700 or so Wigan fans will be there. It's our first trip to France for the RL, can't wait.

The old biff bans are frustrating but I suppose it's the modern world. They've worked for us this week but I wish they'd relax the rules a little. I'm all for players getting bans for blind siding players but a 50/50 scrap should just be ten mins and left there imo.

Happy to help , now please return the favour and take the points

For those of you that are going this weekend/regularly go, how many queens heads does it usually come to? If anyone doesn't mind me asking.

£258 pp for 3 nights b&b in Lloret, airport transfers & matchday transfers Lloret/Perpignan with game ticket. We sort flights out ourselves. Not too bad but will probably arrange the whole thing ourselves next time.

I've sorted our trip out.

Flights were £110 to Barcelona. A night in a hotel in Barcelona is £45 each then three nights in Lloret is £105 each. Our match and Airport transfers are about another £40 so that's £300 all in. Only things on top of that for us is the match ticket and a train/bus ticket from Barcelona to Lloret in Friday afternoon.

It's more work but much cheaper to book things separately imo.

Any pie eaters staying in Perpignan Thursday or Friday?
Leigh fan in Clinic St Pierre with a broken femur, operated today and bed bound till Saturday. He's on the 3rd floor and will be pleased to have visitors, names Frank

We are heading out tomorrow, four nights in Lloret, are you staying at the Fennel Gardens hotel?

We're not mate. It was expensive by the time we went to book because it's rammed full of Wiganers! There's a few coaches picking up from that hotel on Saturday according to the email sent to us by VST. It should be a cracking atmosphere in there.

I'm currently sat on my Jet 2 flight out of Leeds/Bradford(got a cheap flight) whilst they try and fix it due to a technical fault! Should have been in the air an hour ago.

Hopefully make it eventually

Troops have landed lol . Wigan flags about town this morning. Arrived at 9:30am this morning 15:10 and still not had a pint .
