Re: Last Son of Wire if he doesn't?

Anyone who think wigan have a chance thursday are thicker than a pornstars lash.Saints by 30 no problem

Especially when they have a second rower doing a trent barrett impression!

Wigan win by 6

You heard it here first

i dont expect a win, i just want to see a bit of passion from 1-17 on the day and I will be happy, over the last two years we have took some real hidings of saints and that is down to lack of derby passion- the saints lads know what passion is. Maybe the presence of ainscough and sam will do us the world of good, and hopefully the sigining of gleeson regalvanises us.

weve played against saints with passion 3 times over the last 2 seasons- one time we narrowly lost at knowsley road 19-12, one time we beat them at the jjb in which was how wigan should play, and one we battled for a point! I want to feel how I did after these games, proud to be a wigan fan.

Hopefully noble trys to relax the lads this week and id personally tell them the pressure is off, wigan are not expected to win thursday night and saints are expected to steamroll us, we see the best of of wigan when we just play rugby, ie 2002 challenge cup final, lets be adventurous against them and go all out for the win!

Pretty bad how at this stage the majority of us would settle for a good performance rather than a win.

After this one:

Played 9 Won 3 Lost 6

Shocking.

There in Willie Mason's back pocket !!!!

Doesn't bear thinking about really think they will have us for dinner Like many others I just hope we show some passion and enthusiasm and not all this predictable flat attack stuff. Used to go and watch Wigan and think "How many will we win by" this was gradually eroded and finally we got to Millwardgate and went thinking "How many will we get stuffed by" and now I go and think "Wonder which team will turn up this week". I'll live in hope.

I keep on thinking about THAT good friday - hopefully we have enough wigan lads in the team to install some passion, but I do think we will get beat but I do have a great pair of cherry and white tinted specs.
