What I wouldn't like to happen is for it to go to public vote otherwise there'll be a statue of Peter Andre holding the Challenge Cup.

It should be a Rugby League legend who performed at Wembley on many an occasion.

With Rogues being one who has watched Rugby since it was invented :wink: I would lean towards his judgement and without bias and have Shaun Edwards.

It's his Union connections that slightly taint it for me but in all honesty I don't think we are ready for a statue of any RL player, I wouldn't have an arty farty rugby ball with 13 on or crapola like that, it has to be a legend of the game hlding the trophy.






Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.

The obvious one for me is Murphy.






Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union.

Gareth Hock can't pass
Gareth Hock can't run
Gareth Hock can't fight

I'm assured he can snort a line of coke the size of a Mecca dauber though.

Wigan have only won there once, It should be a Saints or Wire player, two wins at the stadium. We own the stadium.






The Autumn Wind is a pirate
Blustering in from sea,
With a rollocking song, he sweeps along,
Swaggering boisterously.


His face is weather beaten.
He wears a hooded sash,
With a silver hat about his head,
And a bristling black mustache.


He growls as he storms the country,
A villain big and bold.
And the trees all shake and quiver and quake,
As he robs them of their gold.


The Autumn Wind is a raider,
Pillaging just for fun.
He'll knock you 'round and upside down,
And laugh when he's conquered and won.
