Wigan are very confident of world domination already, I see.

Interesting.
Is that confidence, arrogance or blind hope?

Also, i don't know where this confidence that J.M won't do well is coming from.
He may not be the best in the league but he isn't rated TOO highly by anyone. People seem to be intimating absolute failure. I think that is unlikely

Hard not to be confident to be honnest, with the coaching staff we've got

Take the team that comfortabley won the GF, add a fully fit Amos Roberts, a new and hopefully improved Gareth Hock and the 3 Melbourne boys and we're looking strong.

Most of its just blind hope though



In regards to JM I think he'll go well at Wire, similair playing style to our Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat.

More like worst signing is Bailey to Salford.

Oh yeah, i was too busy thinking about the next question
