No one man can make a team but out of our current crop of players would we miss the most should he decide Wigan wasnt where he wanted to be. IMO it would be man of steel, Pat Richards. The way he helps the forwards out taking the ball back in , immense under the high ball . great defender, speed and scores tries for fun.

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 |

Footballers spend 90 minutes pretending they're injured,
Rugby players spend 80 minutes pretending they aren't.:simpsons/PDT13.gif |

Hence why squad depth is massively important and the depth we have now, we've got good cover in all positions and its the best i've seen for years.

I think he meant to put "we might have to get used to it". Keyboard dyslexia is an a*se! I should know, I'm always doing it.

I agree with FearTheVee. Although Pat is for us a key player and one which I would never want to see leave the club, I'd sooner it be him than Sam Tomkins (who IMHO will go to the NRL in a few years time)

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

Lockers. Most underated player in super league. I'm sure we would have beaten saints at home with him in the team.

Dan Sarginson: "This is a fantastic opportunity for me to join the biggest name in the competition" 18/10/2013
Tony Clubb: "This is a new exciting chapter of my life signing for Wigan and I couldn't be happier" 18/10/2013
Romain Navarrete: “I’m very happy to have signed for Wigan Warriors. As soon I knew that Wigan were interested, they were the only team that I wanted to sign for. To me, Wigan is the biggest Club in Rugby League and it will be an honour to pull on the famous Cherry-and-White jersey next year. I look forward to working with Shaun Wane and the players at Wigan.”:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10172.jpg |

If we had a fit squad and all players available, I'd say Pat, Amos and Sam in that order. I don't believe there is anyone more important than Pat, with his all round defense and attack game, as well as the kicking. Amos last year was flying as the best full back in SL. Sam has a big heart and is so brave, his allusiveness (sp?) is breathtaking.
I think we have cover at full back and in the halves, but losing Pat on the wing would bring in a lesser standard player, and we'd have to rely on Deacs, who won't be an 80 minute player, for the kicking duties.
