Nice to hear that #NRL CEO Andrew Abdo's introduction to #RugbyLeague was Wigan V Halifax in 1992 and he became hooked. He gave a notable mention to Martin Offiah as being a guy who impressed him.

Happier trip home after today's game compared to last week. Plaudits to Wakefield, a club on the up. Great game to watch arrhythmia you can kick a defenceless player, held on the ground and not get a red card is something of a mystery.
Bring on the Stains in the semi.
#WiganWarriors #ChallengeCup
Into the semi-finals of the #ChallengeCup. This is exactly what we needed after two losses in a row prior to this.

I saw this on an #NRL collectables Facebook page so thought I'd share here. It's the 1911 Australian touring side at Central Park before a match against Wigan. Wigan won 7-2.
I believe AI has been used in an attempt to accurately colour the image.

Haven't been active for a while but did hospitality at this game. First time I've done hospitality since 2012. It was very enjoyable and it of course helped that Wigan got the win in this one 👌

So I won a stadium tour! Met all the players and manager, saw all the inner workings and met some Wigan legends, watched warmup from the dugout and then to cap it all off my youngest got to walk out amd present the match ball in front of 13,000 fans! #WiganWarriors #rugbyleague #betfred
Get in Wigan ! #wiganwarriors
I expected #York to beat us tonight and it's looking likely now.

Good win last night despite missing Wardle, Field and French.
We weren't fluent with the ball which is to be expected with the absentees but Havard, Thompson, Nsemba and Keighran had strong games.
Harry Smith got us around well first half.

Attention switches to the #ChallengeCup now. This will be a tough game with several of our key strike players missing.
#WiganWarriors #RugbyLeague
Potential options:
1. French to 1, Farrimond to 6.
2. Zach to full-back, Sambou to the wing.
3. Hodkinson to full-back.
Next 4 games are:
Toulouse (A)
Bradford (Challenge Cup) (H)
York (H)
Huddersfield (H)

Jai Field having his appendix removed means he will be unavailable for selection for 4-6 weeks. Fingers crossed the recovery goes well.
It gives an opportunity to take a look at other players or options in his absence.

Derek Beaumont your boys took a terrible beating!! 54-0! I notice you haven’t got much to say mr Beaumont! Makes a nice change. Class is permanent. Well done Wigan Warriors. Always nice to shut degsy up! Wishing Bailey Hodgson well. #Wigan #WiganWarriors #LeighLeopards #DerekBeaumont #BaileyHodgson
Our stats from last night's game are impressive.
Another 2 points in the bag for this week at least and for the rest of the weekend we can watch with interest whilst the other teams slug it out.

Leigh weakened without Ipape then losing Ofahengaue, Davis and Hodgson during the game but Wigan were comprehensive in victory.
Harry Smith was my player of the match.
#WiganWarriors #SuperLeague #RugbyLeague
Harry Smith has played in a tuxedo and slippers tonight, in old parlance.
#wiganwarriors
This #wiganwarriors pack looks leaner, meaner and fitter this season.
It's only bloody game day.
There are rumours Ipape won't play for Leigh but I guess we will find out at approximately 6:30pm.

Got my tickets for Good Friday.
The old Derby clash and the only official derby other than the Epsom derby!

Same as last week with Farrell at centre or will Sambou come in? .
I see Leigh are yet to promote the game on their socials after the Beaumont head explosion last year.
They're instead, so far, only talking about the game the week after.
#WiganWarriors #SuperLeague #RugbyLeague
We're on a short turnaround this week so Thursday night's Round 3 clash is fast approaching.
Keighran has escaped a ban for late contact and Leigh are going to be without Umyla Hanley.
#WiganWarriors #SuperLeague #RugbyLeague
Dominated that first half too 👌
#WiganWarriors
These recent times will be looked back on as the good old days at some point in the future I'm sure.
#WiganWarriors #SuperLeague #RugbyLeague
Back on home soil for the first home league game of 2026. It's another win and it's 2/2 to start the year albeit against a Hull FC side with several absentees tonight. #WiganWarriors #SuperLeague #RugbyLeague
A club legend was Dr Zaman. He was the club doctor during a golden era for Wigan. RIP.
