| As the decade closes in on us when we think back we've down pretty well over the last ten years. Four times Champions, Challenge Cup Winners twice and a long overdue World Club Challenge win.
Here's my top ten greatest wins, you may choose a few different matches. You definitely may rank them in a different order but here they are anyway.
Would be interested to see what others would have in their list (and why):
1. Grand Final win v Saints in 2010. Our first championship in over a decade.
2. Grand Final comeback win v Wire in 2013. 16-2 down just before half time and blitzed Wire in the 2nd half to win comfortably.
3. Challenge Cup Final win v Leeds in 2011. Classic Joel Tomkins try and the 'v' sign to the Leeds fans from Sam.
4. World Club Challenge win in 2017 v Cronulla. Our first WCC in 22 years against the odds.
5. Grand Final win v Wire in 2018 that Manfredi try and fairytale ending for Shaun Wane.
6. Grand Final win v Wire in 2016 scrappy low scoring game, least memorable of the three wins against Wire.
7. Challenge Cup Final v Hull in 2013 ground out the win in poor conditions.
8. Good Friday win in 2011, classic derby game and that winning try from Faz with fifteen seconds to go.
9. Challenge Cup QF v Wire 2011, blistering start by Wigan 22-0, then Wire comeback to level only for Wigan to pull away again and win with ease.
10. Magic Weekend Derby win in 2012 v Saints at The Etihad, Wigan took Saints apart with breathtaking tries from Sam, Hock, Charnley and Carmont. Plus the big fight.

Can't argue with any of them really. The only one I'd potentially swap is the Good Friday win for our win in the last Good Friday game at Knowsley Road & Feka bouncing about 4 guys off to go in near the sticks. Both were top games tho

| Some very good picks there, I’d actually swap the Hull Challneg cup victory with the 50-8 win against Leeds, obviously one was a major trophy but it was a dire game and we were poor that day

Agree. That and when we beat Wire at HJ for the first time ever that year. Inspired by Amos and fatty Solomona dropping the ball over the line at the end.

| Can't believe no one has the 2010 Super League Semi away at Leeds in there. They had won three Grand Finals in a row, knocked us out of the Challenge Cup, would go on to win two more Grand Finals on the bounce afterwards. They had come in off beating us at our place in the play offs under dubious circumstances (Rugby gods!) and we didn't win many at Headingley before or after. Despite not being a final, that goes in at number 1 for me. We stepped up from being a constant semi finals team that day, and never looked back.

One of my favourite games, my profile pick of my daughter was taken after the game. We met the Giants team who were on their end of season bash around Headingley. Paul Prescott was outstanding in the game.

| 2016 comeback win at wire away to delay them getting the LLS.
Down 14 points with 20 mins left with 12 men. Won by 7.
That put a lot of doubt in Warrington’s mind before the GF

Ah, Gell's interception! One of FPN's better efforts in a Wigan shirt, too.

| Hard to argue with those 10, but I’d squeeze another in somewhere. 2011 Cup semi-final vs Saints at the HJ.
The scoreline massively flattered them, we were red hot that day. One of the best atmospheres I can ever remember following Wigan too, that terraced side stand was bouncing.

I'd squeeze the first derby game at Saints new ground in there. Sam slipped and gifted Saints an early lead, but Wigan tore them apart after that.
The pass from Finch that put Hock over was sublime, Sam was at his unplayable best. A great win.

I was really stuck with this one, crap spectacle in poor conditions however we did win the cup. In hindsight I probably should have had this lower down on my list (or even out of it all together), but then there are clubs out there that would kill for a crappy Challenge Cup Final win.

Just watched that on Wigan TV. Tore them apart maybe, but Wigan had to withstand a lot of pressure on our own line in that game. Chances brilliantly taken in attack, though. What a good player the teenage Josh Jones looked.

| The Magic game against Saints with the send offs, gutted with it really because without them I'm convinced we'd have put 70+ on them, we looked totally untouchable that day.
I think our last try summed it up, down to 11 men and still created a massive overlap to score.
