23 - 20 - 4
Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png |

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 |

| Quote: stillinthepast "I have one from another site of Billy B going over against Cas away in the late 50s and it seems impossible for a player who as been brushed of to finish up in such a crumpled position without being seriously injured. The problem is I don't know how to post it if I cant find a link.
The one I always remember though is a Wigan v Hunslet match at CP and Billy is going over in the corner and the photo shows the Hunslet scrum half in the background suspended in an horizontal position about a yard off the ground with his head and neck disappearing into his shoulders such was the weight behind Billies handoff. This was an iconic photo brought up for years, but sadly no more.
But one which is one of RL folklore is not just for Wigan it is the one of the Wolfs Wall, a true classic for future RL generations.'"
I've got that as my photo on twitter. PM me an e-mail address and I'll send it to you |

I love this one - it's excellent for several reasons but HH's expression in particular takes me straight back to the moment when I knew we'd done the Double. |

WJ Boston scoring I think in the 1960 Championship Final versus Wakefield and an old feller running onto to pitch in celebration. Natural and full of smiling faces!

Yes I do, but in those days I used to use plenty of Brilliantine to stop it blowing off, these days I use that stuff that Wigan players have sprayed on their hands to stop them dropping the ball in order to stop my cap blowing off.
It doesn't work for them and it doesn't work for me either.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.......
I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.
