You have one wish which is....

You have been granted one wish only to be able to go back in time and change some point anytime in Wire's past, and erase/cancel a score or result against us......

What would that be and why?

Take the 2 when we were 16-2 up against Wigan in THAT grand final,I was screaming for it at the time.

January 2nd 1994, Frano Botica's penalty at 6-6 hits the post and Mike Gregory catches it. He feeds Foz to race clear and score under the posts at the railway end.

I'd change that tackle that ended Simon Grixs time at the wire. That spiral fracture was cruel to say the least, he had developed into an absolutely class 13 and one of our best players. Maybe we wouldn't have won any extra trophies, then again maybe we would. He could have been our captain instead of hill who could have concentrated on what he does best. Gutted to see an injury like that to one of our better players.

In our GF, against Leeds, Trent Waterhouse dropped a pass in the middle about 5 yards out. If he had kept hold, it would surely had been 6 points, and we probably wouldn't have been overtaken, giving us a champions title on our first occasion.

Get Sinfield to miss that penalty kick at the end of the 2011 playoff semi final.

That year was Tony Smith's side at its absolute peak. I would have been really confident going in to a Grand Final against Saints.

Cullen not to have slid in with his knees.
Russell Smith was on the lookout for ANYTHING to penalise us, late on (a bit like Ganson, in Sally's later post)

I'd pick this game, but go with Joel Monaghan doesn't get injured at the end of the first half.

Wouldn't it be better to just wish that we had won?

Did you not get the memo WF, being a Wire means it can never be that simple.
