Did yuo wee yourself laughing when you posted that or did you keep a straight face?

Dont be stupid. I know its a long time since for Wigan, and you are unlikely to see it any time soon. But in order to get to that GF they needed a full season of superiority to be in that position.

If its' that easy do you think Fekka and WIgan will do it any time soon so you can stop idolising a team that played in a final 15 years ago?

He doesn't miss as many tackles, carries the ball more, busts more tackles, gives fewer penalties and makes far more metres.
How so? When one (Leuluai) started every game in the season you're seeking to compare against another (Palea'aesina) who spent most of his time waiting to run against tired opponents?
If it's not a personal question, have you been following the game long?

Best part of sixty years.
That's why they all extract the urine out of me on the Wigan site.
Now you may not believe this but Leeds are my favourite Yorkshire team. I have some great memories from the past from there, Billy Bostons two magnificent 75 yarders in 1957 (I was six years old at the time), Green Vigos hat trick which virtually ended John Atkinsons career, the mission impossible game when we had to play five games in eight days to win the Championship and many many more.
One of my favourite all time tries was scored by Paul Medley when he was at Leeds playing at Central Park. He flew down the Douglas side touchline towards the Kop end and must have beat five men with ppure pace and power.
Leeds are like Wigan in that they are disliked all over Yorkshire, just as Wigan are in Lancashire (they all hate the big boys) and you've IMO always tried to play good open rugby.
On the Feka thing, I'm glad he's playing for us and not you.
