Dont be silly. There isnt a single wolfs player that wouldnt get in our side. Their academy just keeps rolling them out. Hodgson, The Monaghans, Atkins, Briers, Myler, Morley, Higham, Carvell, Westwood, Waterhouse, Hill, Ratchford. I just wish we could produce players like that instead of constantly having to rely on Australians and the hope that the little clubs can produce good players that we can wave wads of cash at and steal. I aspire to be the Wolfs inevery way right down to extending our ground so there are more empty seats on match day thsn normal unless its our cup finals v Saints and the wolfs. Wigan just cant live up to the hype of the wolfs.

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

I couldn't care less about head to heads with wire when we have won a league leaders shield, Super League and the Challenge cup since then.
Before 2009 the head to head games were something to brag about but I think both clubs should be above that now. We have been the best teams by a distance for the 2010, 2011 and 2012 seasons. |

That is the point. 9 of our starting 13 squad players came through our own academy. Could be 11 if we line up like this on saturday....
Tomkins
Charnley
Goulding
Carmont
Thornley
Powell
Smith
Mossop
McIlorum
Prescott
Farrell
Hock
Lockers
This season 22 Wigan players have played super league having coming through the Wigan system. Making shrewd signings in the current climate will not last long, it isn't sustainable.
The wire starting 13 on saturday will probably have 1 player who was brought through by them (Riley), with just two more on the bench in Harrison and Wood.

The Autumn Wind is a pirate
Blustering in from sea,
With a rollocking song, he sweeps along,
Swaggering boisterously.
His face is weather beaten.
He wears a hooded sash,
With a silver hat about his head,
And a bristling black mustache.
He growls as he storms the country,
A villain big and bold.
And the trees all shake and quiver and quake,
As he robs them of their gold.
The Autumn Wind is a raider,
Pillaging just for fun.
He'll knock you 'round and upside down,
And laugh when he's conquered and won.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47600.jpg |

They were hardly nothing games were they? The two league drubbings given to Wigan last season were a big reason we finished top. The last two knockout games are 1 win each, with both teams dishing out a massive knobbing. Neither really matters though. It's yet ANOTHER Wire v Wigan thread that descends into a childish tit for tat argument. It's embarassing.

Some Salford fan said to me and I quote "You are by far and away the most Handsome & Knowledgeable Rugby League Fan in England!"
I thanked him and went on my Merry way!

So the league games and finishing top this year means nothing but last year it did?
Oh i get it now!
Someone better tell the wolfs board that. They keep telling everyone how rotation and not finishing top is the key to play off and grand final success, and if theres one club we should listen to for advice in that dept its the mighty Wolfs
And BTW, spanker started it so there! |
