Quote ="Jimmy Birts Lives On"icon_biggrin.gif I take it you don't want a Wigan win?
The alternative venues don't hold anywhere near enough. Wire 14,000, Leigh 12,000?
Still in charge of the RFL? Like in 1994 when we took an understrength team to Brisbane and beat the Broncos on their own patch in front of 54,000?
We only have a 50% record at Wigan in this fixture anyway. Beat Manly in 87 and lost to Brisbane in 93 so don't worry too much pal. A win is not a certainty.'"
of course I'd like Wigan to win over any Aussie side and any team for that matter (apart from Leeds) but it just seems like a trip back to the late eighties and nineties where Wigan seemed to have everything go in their favour and due to the fact that they where the best team around in that era and now they are back playing good rugby we are back to lets help Wigan as best as we can where as everybody else has to fight for themselves if you get what I mean?
