Little rumour on our (Wigan's) board that we've signed a young out of contract HB, a six, from you, nothing confirmed, just wondering if you've heard any whispers ?

Yeh it’s all part of a swap deal for French and Smith

If that’s true maybe we’ll see a massive dummy spit from Burgess like the ‘likeable’ Peet.

Not least because Nicholson is a Halifax lad who learnedhis rugby at Siddal, he is not some Wiganer raised on pie barms.

Last night absolutely demonstrates the importance of winning LLS in my view. KR had the guts sucked out of them in the game against us and we had them on the ropes but couldn’t finish them off, possibly due to our efforts against Saints.
Wigan had a nice rest, then an easy game against Leigh.
KR looked like a team who had peaked last week.

I see we have swung full circle from "Tony Smith's teams peak too early by winning the LLS. Look at McDermott's Leeds - they finish 5th and peak at the right time".
