Anyone thinking of going to the WCC?

[bad boy bubby]

What !!!! Barry Pearce is organising a pissup in the Old Dart ?

Peter Gow says to bring your own scissors!!

 

[NrlVader]

For those that are not entertaining the expected weather of 4 degrees. The Wigan ground has indoor hospitality packages. But you'll be expecting some banter!

They have a payment plan over 3 months.

Good value for over a week.

Big day on the punt today and nearly paid for it.

 

[madunit]

Question from the floor without notice. Are they going to play the game on the same ground that Lewie smashed his shoulder against the hording near the ingoal? He was playing for the Roos. The one that had minimal ingoal depth and about another spare metre till the great wall.

I watched some highlights of the super league last night and one of the wigan blokes slid hard into everything and anything after spectacularly scoring a try.

That was Wembley wasn't it.

Wembley has in goals about 3 feet deep with a 6ft sheer drop into the fence, which is about 4 inches from the dead ball line

Wife and I are very seriously considering this.

If they had an extra day or two where you got to go to George Hotel to thank the locals for inventing the game the Sharks now own, and a trip to the RL Museum which I think is now in Wigan, would make it f**king fantastic for this historian nerd.

 

[Quigs]

Just to digress for one moment. What time does our "Good Adults" play the poms tonight QLD time.

I think I read it was 11.40pm is that correct annnnd is there an earlier game on between the Blacks and the Scots

There's a few free days. Thinking of doing the Manchester United home ground tour. I think it's good value, as the hotels are decent.

In an end it's a supporters tour. Will be a great experience as any supporters tour.

It's not tonight mate, it's very early Monday morning.

Sux for us that work...

 

[Quigs]

so did I miss the NZ v Scotland clash already

 

[Card Shark]

Doubt it

Be tonight

Edit: you did, 18 all draw. Kiwis hopeless.

 

[bad boy bubby]

so did I miss the NZ v Scotland clash already

f**kin great game

 

[bubs]

I emailed the Wigan club about the missing Print At Home tickets. Apparently they will be sent out at a later date well before the game.

 

[Et#1_supporter]

I booked my flights, $1450, Sydney-Dubai-Manchester and back. Approx the same total flight time as sydney to London, and saves me having to get a train or drive up to Wigan.

Gonna arrive in Manchester on Friday morning, 17 Feb. Thinking of staying in Wigan Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights, then on Monday once the game is done and weve celebrated being champions of the world, ill head over to Barnsley in Yorkshire where me mum is originally from to have a gander around there.

So, between now and then we can arrange some sort of get together on the saturday night, or Sunday pregame?

 

[bluefox68]

The biggest hindrance to us winning the game will be the obvious gaps. Nu Brown cannot possibly be expected to have the skills of Ennis, and the same problem applies when it comes to Holmes at fullback. Flanno will play Beale at wing, which is another problem...

Hopefully we can still do it!

 

[Chimp]

Our pack will make absolute mince meat of the Wigan pack. Birdy, Val, Loots and Feki will run rings around their backs, or straight over them.

The WCC will be a walk in the park.

The standard of Super League is abysmal.

 

[Arnold]

And it will be 2c
