'Simply the best' and 'We are the Champions' ringing round the stadium last night certainly made it feel a bit like that.

That and the red shorts.

It was a great sight seeing the town centre buzzing before kick off. We went to the Feast at the Mills for a bit pre match and that was packed. A great night all round and one to live long in the memory.

Well done Wigan won me a few quid Penrith no 7 way overrated you out muscled and out coached them.

Did the same and it was great. Can't help but wish that we could get a crowd like that either every home game, or at least for half of them.

FWIW, the best atmospheres we've had recently have all been on a Saturday. I'd love to see more home games on a Saturday. Especially if you're like me and it's not as easy to get a beer in the diary with your mates as it once was.

We seem to be missing a few posters. Where oh where are the Saints fans. Not been able to keep them away recently. Upstaged by the mighty Wigan again. Beating a full strength Penrith side with 4 first teamers out and 1 sub on the bench.

Always in our shadow.

We were around town from just after one and and it was getting busy then. Every pub we went in was buzzing. Great atmosphere everywhere and really good to see so many people enjoying themselves.

I admit I didn’t think that we could beat them in arm wrestle but we did and deservedly so.
I thought that Ellis was the best player on the pitch by some margin and still think that after watching it again this afternoon.
Just wish that the French try was onside. Would have been one for the ages.

I thought Ellis and his mate Yeo were the best two. He’s some player Isiah Yeo. Him and Dylan Edwards don’t seem to quite pick up the plaudits of Cleary, Luai, Fisher Harris etc but they’re fantastic players.

A word for Brad O’Neill as well. He was immense and had a running battle with James Fisher-Harris all night and didn’t take a backwards step. I worried about that middle unit defensively when Smithies left but O’Neill and Ellis are killing it so far.

Agree with all of that.
I said to my son last that I’d love to Yeo playing for us. Plays like an old style British backrower.
I’d be amazed if O’Neil isn’t our next captain when Farrell retires.

It was the same before and after the GF all to quick to criticise and offer their insight when we lose then hibernate when we win.

Unfortunately I missed the game due to being on holiday.
Heard all about the controversy especially from that dick Phil Gould.
Many congratulations especially from a SL point of view as those Ozzies hate it when we beat them.
Amazing that it is never a congratulatory win when it comes from England and it`s always an excuse waiting to happen from the Aussies.
Well done Wigan and in particular Matty Peet.
