Leeming has been great since his move to starting 9.

His ability to get in at first receiver too is a real asset as it takes a bit of heat off Smith from defensive push as they have more than one target when he drops into that role but it also means French can run a little wider when he does giving ridiculous strike options either side of the ruck.






Unofficially the most boring poster on Cherry and White.

The job was already done but Mago came on once again and was everywhere. Forber as well the shot he put in on one of Leigh players was first class. I can’t fault any of the lads for that performance

I reckon MP trusts him now defensively and when he drops into the 13 receiver role it has to be said he can't half pick a pass.
If there's such a thing as most improved player award then he wins it hands down

Kicking the ball away so preventing a quick re-start.

Loved the impact when they brought Little and Large on! :D

Wigan were awesome - the teams looked like they.were playing in two different divisions at times. Leigh had one single opportunity before the Miski intercept - if they had scored and got a foothold in the game then maybe they'd have put up more of a fight but there looked only one winner right from the off.

What are people's thoughts on the WCC situation? As it stands right now we won't be playing it if we win on Saturday. Penrith won't come to the UK before Vegas and it doesn't look like Wigan will go to Australia either. I doubt the club anticipated playing in Las Vegas would affect the WCC - I wonder if they'd have been so keen to play if they'd known. Personally I would much prefer the chance at another trophy than playing a standard league game in America and giving up a home fixture in the process.

I would too, but as has been pointed out, some Warrington fans will have bought tickets, maybe booked flights and hotels...

The issue with the WCC is that it's always being arranged last minute because the NRL doesn't really care about it and even the people in charge of Superleague do very little to assist the clubs in getting the game on. This won't change anytime soon, so it'll either continue to be down to chance if it can take place or it'll be shelved altogether. The only other option and the one that would mean you could plan it well in advance, is to have it in Vegas each year. The NRL would need to choose the teams competing in league fixtures in Vegas and have some sort of standby team in case one of the sides ended up in the WCC and needed to be replaced. Linking it back in to my point about the NRL not caring about the WCC though, I think they'll just continue to ignore it and it'll be up to the clubs and good fortune if it can ever take place.

Would be a real shame if it didn't happen. I feel like the fixture had gained some real momentum over the last 2 years since it came back after COVID. Penrith seemed like they were coming around to really buying into the concept as well judging by all their player interviews. Would be a bit of a kick in the teeth if it gets scrapped due to a trip to Vegas next year and goes back to square 1.

Any idea why Wigan don't fancy going to Aus if they win? Im guessing it would be too much of an expense when added to the Vegas trip?






The only reason they look up to you is because they chose to kneel.

I don't think there is any confirmation that Wigan wouldn't fancy the trip to Australia. There has been speculation that it may not happen because it's tough to come up with a plan to play a league fixture in the UK, then go to Australia, then go to Vegas and then come home for another league fixture but if there is a club that would try and make it happen, I think it would be Wigan.

I'd probably but the question towards Penrith and why they wouldn't come here. Unlike us, they don't have any league fixtures to cope with before Vegas, so could come here and then go to Vegas. The onus and the sacrifice always seems to have to be on the English clubs side. I read rumours yesterday that the Samoan lads from Penrith have decided not to bother with the test series over here, so they'll be well rested and can probably handle an extra business class flight or two.
