Redvee seems to occupy a big space in the heads of some of our fans. It's really weird that they care, or look what's on there.'"
It's weird that you care what people do or don't find interesting.

It's like watching a political rally, with two sides screaming at eachother but not realising both are wrong and just as bad as eachother.

I agree about the screaming but there is a difference we are right and they are not.

Lets be honest at the min Saints are sh*t scared what could happen on GF and I dont blame them selling out the home allocation just because the Champions are in town

I was clearly talking about the league, as you know.
Tell you waht though, consider you think it's such as a "cesspit" you don't half spend a lot of time on there reading our comments.

| Lets face it, there is more comparisons going on between the two sides than ever before, more points scoring, more sticking the boot in, more checking each others forums and more trolling simply because both sides know the other side has been and is the only realistic chance of stopping them winning trophies on a regular basis. Teams can win one off comps like the Challenge cup and maybe even a LLS/Grand Final but since 2018 Wigan and Saints have shared every Grand Final Trophy, a lot of the league leaders shields and a couple of challenge cups, with a WCC win each thrown in for good measure. We're each others biggest rivals anyway, always have been and always will be but this past 6 years, alongside the fact we still look like the best two sides in the league will keep this chatter/banter/sticking the boot in going for as long as this is the situation.
Each to their own but I enjoy having a bit of back and forth with Saints fans. It's better than sitting here in mid/lower table, with no real rivalries to speak off and that is the case for a number of clubs.

| Our greatest wins are against Saints
Our greatest losses are against Saints
They are our biggest foes our greatest rivals
We need St Helens as much as they need us because if you cannot get up for these games then RL isnt for you.
There isn't a derby or a game that rivals this one,I for one absolutely love this fixture,can't wait for GF.

I find it highly entertaining mate for many different reasons as I'm sure you can imagine
Still a cesspit though...

| Christ, lose one game and we're finished! Obviously not exclusive to Wigan, but it always surprises me how insane sports fans are. Even on Redvee you've got predictions we're gonna lose the next 5 games in a row, be out of the running in all comps with the coach being sacked lmao.
I stand by saying that I think BOTH of our teams are a cut above the rest of the league at the moment. Im very confident in what our starting 13 can achieve, with the obvious weakness that is the left wing spot. However, your strength in depth is a good level above us, so a bit of luck could definitely play a part in how it all goes this year.
I think our defence has for the most part, continued to look outstanding. I thought we looked very good against Huddersfield, and I thought we looked pretty good against Salford too and were cruising against a very in form team up until the sending off. Salford are playing well anyway, but they're so good at moving the ball and they did a fantastic job of taking advantage of the numbers and fair play to them. They knackered us out and reaped the rewards. Before the sending off, we'd conceded 14 points in 3 and a half games of rugby. I'm baffled by anybody saying we look finished.
Unfortunately I doubt Matty Peet and the lads will think the same, which is a shame.

I would agree wholeheartedly with you but I can’t as this is a Wigan v Saints debate and therefore we are bound to disagree. I think we are in for a treat on Good Friday if the weather is kind.
