Dual-reg should be interesting because anyone from London who played would be cup-tied for them.'"
I can assure everyone that IRB would have prefered not to have clashed with the Warriors fixture, but unfortunately too many other considerations stopped this happening. The Warriors and their staff have been very helpful along the way but unfortunately this seemed to be the best option for us. We could have switched the fixture to Hemel but I dont think anyone would have wanted that. I can guarantee that we will have a good day no matter what the result. Thanks to Wigan RUFC for all their help. |

Thanks for the input it's certainly given me something to think about, I am interested to see what the handicap marks on both the Skirlaugh game and this one are when they come out later in the week.

Better than switching away. Just disappointed as I would of gone on a Saturday or earlier kick off. |

Speaking of WRUFC I heard somebody say at the U19s game that ex-Wigan and Saints player Tim Jonkers is now involved with them. |

I probably would have as well. Usually a good day out at Bridge for the Ken Gee Final. |

Surely it would make more sense to play the match at Orrel?

Wigan RUFC is I would guess a lot closer to Ince than Orrell is, so easier to attract more of a crowd to the game at Douglas Valley.
Also we were not allowed to stage the under 20s GF at Orrell a few years ago as the ground wasn't up to the required standard. I would imagine that it wouldn't meet the required standards to host a Challenge Cup game either. |

Don't think that was down to required standards, more than the RFL want Under 20s finals at first team venues. We got a compromise on Leigh in 2011. |

Pity it couldn't be a curtain raiser before the Wakefield match. We all know why not and the sooner Latics disappear from the Premier League the better as far as RL in Wigan is concerned.

einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result: |
|
| Quote: wiganermike "Hemel have been going well in their last couple of games including beating London Skolars (who should be among the front runners in Championship 1 this season) but have benefitted from including the likes of Chris Melling from the Broncos so without DR players should be weaker. I still think they are unlikely to lose to Rose Bridge, though they may come close to it.
IMO Skirlaugh v Gloucestershire All Golds is the one where the giant killing (if you could really call it that in this case) is likely to occur. To be honest I would be more surprised (pleasantly surprised I should add) if Skirlaugh didn't win that one as the All Golds are built around a student team and included 45 year old Brad Hepi in their team against Oxford.'"
Are you sure it wasnt his son tyla who is on loan from Hull KR who you thought was playing and not Brad |

Tyla started with his dad coming off the bench. |

i stand corrected to be fair Brad Hepi was still playing rugby union for one of the Hull clubs until recently so still should be fairly fit |
