Only one game sticks in my head for this category.
Bradford 30-31 Wigan



Was there on that terrace cursing our teams terrible performance and then Trent starts to order the team about the field, forwards start driving and Calderwood scores 3

Then to top it off Paaaaat knocks over a drop goal.

A memory I will never ever forget!

We have seen some amazing games, some amazing celebrations in semi finals and finals but none have matched the Bradford game for me. Amazing scenes, will never be repeated, I still can't believe it. I have never experience such joy over 1 game. The way we turned the game around and the way we saw Trent pull the team together was breathtaking.
I still get emotional watching it now. It was even more amazing because of the game before as well.

2002 Challenge Cup Final.

although that one sticks in my mind aswell ill have to say 2003 play off final eliminator at leeds. carney scoring two blinders, tickle with an awesome drop goal, fantastic atmosphere and a great wigan performance!

Was gonna say that one myself

IMO the ones that stick out are....

2000 Bradford at home, Radlinski last minute try

2002 cup final

2003 Leeds away in the play-offs

2006 Leeds away, massive game to stay up

2007 Bradford away 30-31

2009 Murrayfield vs Saints

I agree with the Leeds game Newton Warrior



Looking back, there have been some great games we have been involved in. Even the Saints-Wigan game from this years play off I found thrilling as well as both Hull KR away games this year.

But as Odemwingie said, nothing compares to the greatest comeback in history and for the fact we weren't given a chance before the game either. Being 15 now, so about 12/13 then, going into school after that weekend victory was one of the best weeks of my life.

The 2 'I was there moments'.


Bradford 30 - 31 Wigan

Leeds 22 - 23 Wigan

Brilliant.

Hull KR away in the play-offs was superb!

Saints game I struggled to enjoy.

Challenge cup final 2002, Leeds in the 2003 final eliminator too but I wasn't there

Phil Bailey last minute try at Leeds over Easter.

agree with all of these, we've had some crackers. Another one i loved was in 2006, we were in the relegation zone, just deducted 2 points, looked sure to be going down then we go to Leeds and beat um, that try from Calderwood, set up by Ashton, everyone was screaming their fookin heads off, just felt like we were sticking 2 fingers up to the RFL and the rest of Super League

I remember shouting because Carney let the ball bounce......

murryfield 2002 surely has to be the game of the decade!

The Bradford game where we came back for the most part was a poor game and had me tearing my hair out at us not turning up. It obviously went on to become a sensational comeback to remember.

I'd agree with the Leeds away play off game. It just seemed to have abit of everything and huge moments to remember. I also used to love the Bradford home games in the early part of the decade. They used to draw big crowds and the 2 sides were pretty well matched(outside of grand finals). They had some great moments in them.

In terms of drama and entertainment, Wigan fans have been spoiled for the vast majority of the last decade.

I feel extremely glad that I was introduced to the club as a kid. There's been some absolutely incredible games over the last 10 years.

Leeds away (2003) just about for me.

The 24 - 22 win v Saints in April 2003 was the most special for me.

Wigan had about seven players who had been given the day off school to play in that game.

A Saints fan on Red Vee summed it up perfectly
"We played a bunch of KIDS and were humiliated"

"Personally, I'd slap a ban on the players off the field socialising around town until things improve: not necessarily a win, just some pride shown. It'd give them incentive to play well knowing they can have a good night out after the game if they win, not that they should need any incentive to go and play with some pride in the jersey anyway."

The Wigan report was a much more positive.

There is still another year left of this decade yet !

No, there's not. 2000-2009.

The 22-20 victory over Saints in March 2005 was a special game for me as it was my first live match watching Wigan. Everybody expected an easy Saints victory after we started to struggle under the Betts regime but our young players did us proud and defeated a very experienced and high quality Saints side in front of 25,004 fans, our biggest domestic gate at the JJB Stadium. Great way to start following Wigan properly.

They've let me down quite considerably since then mind but that's just sport.

What about Leeds 19-18? Burrows lining up that drop goal, the noise trying to put him off, Richards waving his arms desperatly, he kicks it, its going, going, its gona make it, MISSED!

That was awesome, same for Leeds away in 2003, and Bradford away in the play-off. The best bit of the Leeds away game had to be them (senior??) makiing a break in the dying seconds and Wigan bodies just appearing from no where to scramble back.

I hate this thread, it's reminded me how much I want to be at a game right now.

Hull away 07 play offs was a beltin day

Great game on my birthday

That Hull F.C away game on an Easter Monday when Liam Colbon scored the winner, can't remember the year. I remember we had loads of injuries though.

A lot of memories being brought back here.

The Hull KR games as I said have been great games as I appeared on the tele twice, especially in the play offs after Gleeson scored the controversial try and it came onto me going mental punching the air! Good times



What about Leeds and Saints away in the weekly rounds this year? Although we lost to Saints, the tension was unbelievable!
