Looking forward to tomorrow. : Sat Feb 16, 2019 4:58 pm  

Although not favourites by a long stretch I can't help but look forward to the challenge ahead tomorrow.
A few drinks pre game and a good chat with fellow rugby fans is always a good start.
A 20k plus crowd will provide a great atmosphere.

Then the game.

A current member of the backroom staff told me at work in 94 we stood no chance (sorry pal, i know you'll read this). It didn't matter, meeting challenges head on and breaking new ground is what Wigan are all about.
I've seen the comparisons to 94 and I don't know if a win tomorrow would be better than 94, but it's certainly in the same ball park.
Better Wigan teams than this one have lost to teams maybe not as good as this one.
But winning or losing is not the be all and end all, taking the opportunity to constantly test yourselves against the best and getting off the floor and going again when things don't go your way is what sets certain club's apart from the others.
I can't wait to see young Wigan lads George Williams, Oliver gildart, Davies/Marshall, Farrell, Powell along with lockers and Hardaker/bullock/Greenwood/Sarginson young British lads giving their all for our club.
Plus a few older heads such as Tommy/flower etc

We don't back down, we stand our ground (One for you older ones) and give it everything.

Win or lose that's all we can ask.

Should be a cracking day regardless of the result. To see Wigan playing in these games is always special. I hope the crowd really gets behind the side and before and during the game makes it a hostile environment for the Aussies.

Just being at a game like this gives you the feeling of passion and pride that you won’t have experienced before and if your lucky enough to see your team win, memories that will live forever.

Lets hope none of them have a different opinion than you, especially since you'll of had a few drinks.

I doubt it, but if any of them do suggest we call the game off because we may get handsomely beat and for noother reason I'll pretty much say the same to them as I am to you.

Utterly ridiculous!

Dont twist what i said, i asked 'should it have been called off', i didnt say 'we should call it off'.

I hope you have a great day though.

Really looking forward to it. I really hope we can get the win but make no mistake it will be difficult. All we can ask is for every player to give 100% and every fan to do the same.

If the ref penalises Jake Friend for the incessant lying on he gets away with every match we might stand a chance
