What finer way to send him off than to beat Saints convincingly and see him have one of his famous dummy spits before he leaves to get smashed week in, week out in the NRL. ![]()
Just realised this could be Maguire's last match in charge of Wigan and also could be Hoffmans last game in a Wigan shirt. A good incentive for Saints to win.

Wigan need to target him the same way we did in the CC semi. Even though I'm not sure he was 100% fit he was like road kill, to such an extent he didn't fancy taking the ball up at the end. I've never seen Graham like that before.

I don't think he was 70% fit, never mind 100%.
Quote: Wigan28/Leeds18 Andy "He is phenomenal. Towards the end of the game he caught the ball and literally fell on the floor.
I can imagine there were thousands of people thinking ‘what is he doing’? Well the other 16 blokes in our team knew exactly what he was doing “There was a stage early on in the week when the poor lad could barely walk and I thought there was no chance he could play in the game.
It says much about him as a character and a person that he put the team before his own personal health.
He made a sacrifice for us today and he's not the only guy'"
He'll get targeted though, no question. |

I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubblegum.
Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight!

I've always liked Graham. Yes he spits his dummy out from time to time, but that's only because the game means so much to him. Fabulous player for club and country, who I'm sure we'll go well over in the NRL.
Just a shame he's off to the Bulldog's, not a big fan of their's.

Agreed. I would rather he stayed in Super League, but I can't blame the bloke for leaving. An absolute machine. I hope he smashes the Aussies into next week. All the best to him. |

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

Not a chance, they have State of Origin and we don't. We will never smash the aussies |

Games as big as Grand Finals define individuals and clubs. Remember, we only rent these journeys. In my time I had Pat Richard's shirt. Ellery Hanley had Sean O'Loughlin's jersey. Sam Tomkins is wearing Radders' number one jersey. Andy Coley is wearing Shaun Wayne's jersey. You have to make a mark in these shirts before you hand it down to someone else. Hand it back. So be aware for 80 minutes that you are not only playing, but you are also writing history and creating legacy. How many people actually write history - not many? A big stage demands big players…..INSPIRE YOUR TEAM MATES.

Always respected Graham.
Plays hard but fair and his dummy spits are funny but also a sign of his passion and will to win. He's a loss to the superleague but thankfully not the game.
Good luck to him.

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 |

| Good luck to Graham over in Aus. He never fails to give less than 100% and just like Sam he plays it to the limit. I'd have loved to have him at Wigan and he will be a huge loss to Saints next year.
I'd still like too see one last dummy spit on Saturday. |
