jroyales Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 Can't disagree with you but any game must benefit the side i.e. match fitness and putting plans into practice. Who knows they might even loan us a decent scrum half for the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManchesterYed Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 I wouldn’t read too much into this game and see it purely as a fitness exercise to keep our lads ticking over till the start of the season. This Wigan side have beaten Whitehaven and barrow in preseason so expect a very tough test against the best youngsters in the business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChampagneCharlieReturns Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 They didn't beat barrow, maybe one of the wigan props will appear on loan for us 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it happened I probably 'celebrated' so much that it's all been blacked out. Can't see it happening in the near, or distant future either, unfortunately.

Tangle Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 I’m 77 and luckily I was at Wigan when we hammered them it would have been a bigger score but I think Ganley didn’t play 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrewsbury roughyed Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 March 31st 1986. Wigan 18 Oldham 26. Oldham tries Foy, Warnecke, Korean, Hobbs. Seems a lifetime ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clifford Posted February 12, 2023 Author Share Posted February 12, 2023 Did anyone go today? Was it worth playing wigans kids? Personally this game should have been behind closed doors and a training match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
