If my team just got to the CC final, the last thing i would do is come on another teams forum trolling and looking for bites

Its Pathetic, it really is

Trolling ??

Bitter pill though it is to swallow, we should actually be glad that Wire have got to the final. The last thing we really wanted was them burning to make gains in the league because they'd been knocked out of the cup. I honestly think it's that simple.

Wembley is a good day out, but it doesn't really have the fanfare of the Grand Final (and never will, IMO, until Sky relinquish their grip). The major prize is still up for grabs, and if Wire, who'e been our main challengers for it, are distracted a little, all well and good.

You could also say that losing yesterday would be very hard to come back from.

Who knows how it will work out.

You're right. I think Catalans will struggle for the rest of the season now.

Whenever Wigan have been done this season, they've bounced back with a vengeance the following week, including after being knocked out in the quarter-final. My money would have been on you to do the same.

If we had lost that would of been 3 loses on the bounce.

I'll actually be going for Wire to win, Wire play good attractive open rugby and can do that without giving dirty cheep shots unlike the Whinos. Wire maybe a rival club but I much prefer the way they play rugby compared to Leeds, at least Wire can say they have deserved 1 victory against us this year, same can't be said for Leeds when they beat us in the cup.

And, to wire's credit, the better teams don't do that very often.

The big test for you now is holding on to 2nd.

Wire have got
Wakefield A
Hull H
Quins A

Saints have
Bradford H
Crusaders A
Castleford H

Not sure who has the harder run in there. I suppose Hull are a top team but Wire should do them at home. Points difference +347 v +315

Ours is harder but Saints now have no 6 or 7 to lead the team round.

At the end of the day we are fighting for playing each other either at the HJ or Knowsley road.

True, but Saints rarely lose playoff games at home.

The one game I'd single out for Wire is Hull (obviously), but for the time they play them rather than Hull's league position.

Just how much will the players be focusing on Hull with the CC Final the week after?

We have never beat them at the HJ or KR in Super league era though



I would love us to do them at KR though in there last ever season it would be perfect.

Hull game is the toughest one on paper just have to wait and see but this season has been great am loving it.

I know it's been said before but as much as Wigan and Wire fans seem to loathe each other it is nice to have 2 new teams, and local ones at that, at the top of SL.

A new era?

Im not bothered which wins it Wire will have done 2 on the bounce and we may fear our 8 in a row getting beat!!


Should leeds win it though they will prob deserve to after haveing to beat the top 4 in the process! Which is an achievement!! Plus it will be nice for Leeds to win it as its been a while considering their dominating sides of the last decade!!! And if Leeds to win it they wont be gloating as mentioned by quite a few of their fans before the quarters they dont class the CC in high regard and its only really a day out at Wembley!! Grand Final is the one for them!!

hope leeds win

Why not?

Dominance is cyclical, and Leeds and Saints have had it their own way for a while now.

You'd be mad to write them off, but Wigan's and Wire's squads look the more stable going forward over the next 3 or 4 years.

Not sure about 3 or 4 years for Wire, they have alot of players at 30 years of age or over. Probably another 2 years at least.

True but the "older heads" are getting in there prime and still hungry we also have a good spine of the likes of Myler, Harrison, Louis Anderson, Riley, Bridge and Atkins all with plenty of time on there side, along with the U20s and U18s which are going well the U18s had a good few 16yo lads in it the other day with a certain Ben Currie getting 2 tries

I meant collectively the Warrington supporters discussing a thread on the Wigan board, and you have posted on that thread, in fact you referred to some Wigan fans as being "retards".

Dont really care who wins TBH giving my tickets away to a mate of mine in Leeds still going down for the Beer festival at the Skolers V Oldham on Friday but just doing some weatherspoons on Saturday seeing the hotel and train is booked

You wiil be greatly missed KNOB

were the scum,were the scum...WE'RE THE SCUM OF RUGBY LEAGUE!!!

Berk. You've just written off a big part of Wigan's history as 'win a few games and get a cup'.
