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. https://wiganrugbyfans.com/2017/05/23/s ... 012-video/

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

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.

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.
