Oct 12, 2008 - Wigan "best in all the world".... as if! Manly were down to 12 men due to a dodgy send-off (lay down Lydon), jetlagged, and only 10 booze filled days after their own Grand Final. Get real.

Oct 12, 2008 - From the mid 1980's to 1995 the Wigan club dominant rugby league in britain and the world club challenge matches, it was on a fluke that the brisbane broncos won the 1992 world club challenge. If you put the wigan teams from that period against the great St George side's from the 1950's to the mid 1960's, wigan would win!!!!(but we should really NEVER compare past era's)

sieyk Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - that was a gracker of a game by the look at that manly would have won by 20 in aussie land, it is a big advantage to the pommy sides dont you think, they should play 2 games one in each country and add the the total points to find the winner.

Oct 12, 2008 - what a night. Everyone thought it would be a cakewalk for Manley. Graham Lowe (wish we still had him) thought different and made sure the all british Wigan team did to. Ground was packed to the rafters with thousands locked out. Thanks

neilrobinson1976 Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - We'd be happy with that, but you Aussies simply prefer to whinge.It suits you to pretend that we have all the advantages when it suits you, and bang on that you already play too many games.The RFL have invited you to bring it on many times over, but you keep bottling it.

Oct 12, 2008 - Shame They Still Cant Put A Decent National Side Together Against The Kangaroos Cant Remeber If It Was Never Or Ever When England Won Test Series! Still Cant Realy!

wicksy03 Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - October 14 1990 Was good Game For Wigan at Home Aus 34-Wigan06,Great Year Mal Menigas Tribe's!

clinny Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - Whats your point with the Wigan v Australia referance? I posted this video because it was a top game of rugby league between 2 sides at the top of there game not because of the English/Ausie rivalry,this was 1987 not 1990,2 different wigan sides them were.Dont be so negative wicksy03.Peace mate.

easygoingbloke Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - must admit manly did well hold out down to 12 for a longtime.been attacked all the time by wigan.wigan back then at central park was tough even more so with a full house behind them.they had amazing players and the ref in their pocket most of the time lol.they were a damn good team though once you got past that.aussie sides did do that.win their final then go on a bender i recognise vautin and shearer in that manly side queenslanders playing for a sydney side hmm makes me think they two faced.

jobo1954 Says:

pauljharte Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - brilliant, stood in the popular stand, couldn't move. too busy shouting and singing to remember any of the game. remember it being packed half hour before kickoff and seeing people queing outside all the way up to scholes.

gpartin Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - Wigan had a team full of brits did they not?

sieyk Says:

Oct 12, 2008 - They cant even field good teams without relying on the Aussies for the club games that comp is so lame without the Aussies.
