Congrats to Wigan from a Wire. Deserved victory. Ive been reading some of the Aussie comments on Social Media sites and they are embarrassing. One moaning that we have half a team full of Aussies. Actually no - We have Sims and Gidley. The rest English. Others moaning they had players missing, well so do both Wigan and Warrington, of which they are some of our best players.
I am not that naive that I will say SL is better than the NRL as it isnt. But to suggest our top teams couldnt compete regularly against the NRL teams is laughable. Dont forget they have the likes of the Knights who are dreadful.
Hopefully both Wigan and Warrington qualify for the WCS next year and it goes to Australia as both our clubs are advocates of this competition and have both expressed interest in going over to play them there this year and i suspect would do again next year.
