I think he means games like at Knowsley road last year with 12 men, Leeds play-off game at Headingley and Huddersfield away this season. We went to an in-form Huddersfield, and won convincingly without the likes of Sam Tomkins, Pat Richards, Gleeson (at the time) Fielden, Deacon, Finch. It was certainly 'backs against the wall' stuff.

| Quote: Wire_85 "What a load of dross.
No pressure on Wigan at all? we are the one's who have had the cup for last 2 years and you are the ones who need to come take it off us.
Weaker Wigan side last time? check the Wire team.
Where are you getting this "mental edge" from?'"
apologies, i didn't make it very clear in my original post, what i meant to say was that the wigan side was weaker than the wire side at the DW earlier this year. but to be fair although they are great players i don't think losing either of the players you mention in Matt King etc compares to not having the current MOS in your side, whether fit or not!
we simply have the mental edge (IMO) due to toppling you from the top of the league. this game not only decides who progresses in the cup but it also will tell on the league too i think.
a wire win at the weekend and wigan will not only be dejected at a loss but wire can also take that confidence into regaining the top spot in the league and doing better than last year in the playoffs.
a wigan win at the weekend and it could prove very significant in the league too from a confidence point of view for the wigan players and IN THE PAST at the final hurdle wire have sometimes "bottled" it as some would say - no myself - but some would say so.
hence what i originally said  |

Sam or Brett, Long term there is only one answer but based on this season again there is only one answer.
Josh or Joel. 2 nil to the Wire
Pat or Matt, Pat is a great kicker but sorry.......3 nil
George or Ryan, difficult but George has been playing well so 3 - 1
The other centre spot , don't know who you will play buy either way he won't be as good as Bridge 4 -1
Tommy L or Myler, close but I will give it to Richie but only just, 5 - 1 (bit of a lead here guys)
Finch or Lee, Finch is coming good but 6 - 1
Your two Starting Props whoever you choose against Moz and Carvell makes it 8 -1 to the Wire.
Ryan against Benny W, Benny is a winner (and you know it) 9-1
Hock vs Louis perhaps 9-2
Lockers Vs Grix, Simon has been great this year but clearly Lockers 9 -3
Oops I have forgotten Mclorram sp Vs Monas ![]()
Classic!

I think the funniest thing is how he thought pat was worse than king obviously forgot he's usually top try scorer too.

Matt King is better than Pat Richards.... what gives you the impression he isn't.

Yes sight helps, but so does a knowledge of rugby, and Matt King is a better rugby player than Pat Richards.

Take it to the VT because no one Wigan and Wire is going to agree on this.

No problem, its more difficult for some people than others to discard club loyalty, and think rationally. |

His Man of Steel trophy says his Peers, you know those in the know? Says he is a better player than King. |

 A lesson on rationality from a distinctly average troll?!

Were you at the right match on Saturday? You sure you weren't watching some other sport? Coz there was no other cc games that day and pat made king look distinctly average in that game. |
