Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

I personally think Riddell will be one of the players to really florish under a new coach, we have lacked options across the park especially round the marker, it may be too late to see any huge changes this year but next year i would hope this would be an area we would look to significantly improve in.

How is Riddell going to florish exactly? He was always average.

Wigan vs Leeds finals aggregate score.

Wigan 178 - 64 Leeds

Wigan wins - 6 Leeds wins - 0


I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubblegum.

Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight!

Well were stuck with him at the moment, I'd be willing to give him a chance under the new coach to see if he improves, but if not then another one for the scrapper.

TBH I think Riddell and Roberts would flourish under a new coach.

Roberts will be good if Wigan got a decent passing number 7 who could make the space for the centres.

I've not wrote off either Roberts or Riddell just yet or a number of other players that have been underpreforming during the past god knows how long.

This squad has very few out and out no marks in it imo but it does have plenty of players with alot of room for improvment who need a kick up the a*se.

Were a good coach and a couple of players off having a top 3 side imo.

I'm reading nothing into the Finch piece in the Observer tbh. It was only the same article that was on the Sydney morning Herald website and by the sounds of it he's not made his mind up on anything yet and is possibly just trying to up any deal he may be able to get over here.

The only time you will see Riddell flourish is at TGI Fridays.
