Post subject:  Amateur Rugby League - Wigan
Putting Superleague to one side for a moment i think its worth mentioning what tremendous rugby league has been on offer in the past few days involving our local amateur teams.

For £2 we got to see an absolutley belting game between Ince and Judes followed by Wednesday nights game between Judes and St.Pats which was free of charge.

In terms of value for money you really couldnt ask for much more.

In particular i thought that both stand offs for both Pats and Judes were great to watch and in all seriouseness some of the skills on display were outstanding, particularly when you consider the weather conditions on Wednesday evening.

Thank the lord for amateur rugby league in Wigan.

I think it's also worth mentioning the crowds they got. They would put some of our NL2 sides to shame.

2000 at the very least for each game and the weather on Wednesday was not the best.

IF we changed the name of one of our local amateur clubs to 'Cardiff' or 'Birmingham' or 'London' they'd be fastracked into superleague.

Personally I think the level that amateur RL is at around Wigan and Leigh is nothing short of incredible.

The talent on show is fantastic and the support is second to none. I watched Ince/Judes, Pats/Miners and Miners/East and they were fantastic matches. If only some of our players played with the courage and heart some of these players do.

went to the ince vs judes game and while i agree there was a good crowd the figure quoted of 2000 is laughable there was between 500 to 600 on
the standard was decent and both teams palyed very hard although the match was spoiled a bit by the sending off{ref had no choice}and the morons sat on the garages behind the fencing who constantly hurled foul and disgusting abuse at the officials and judes players and supporters,while technically they are not on bridges property they really were an emabarresment to the club.
