It's not the worst Wigan team but I wold hardly call it a strong one. We have Jordan James and a 19 year old making his debut (squad no.42) on the bench.

I fail to see why you call it 'injury woes hype'. He's told the truth all week. He said Powell, O'Loughlin and Charnley were all doubtful. The only person added who wasn't in the original 19 is Charnley. Why would he want to 'big up' our injury situation? He has never used injuries as an excuse in any game and do you really think he would if we lost a derby? He expects any team he puts out to win.

Anyway, if you win tonight it will be well deserved as you know Wigan always turn up for the derby with Wane in charge. I think you may just edge it tonight.

The second Origin game this year was good only because the Blues won it. It was an utter borefest. The first one of the series this year was rescued by the best 20 minutes of desperate defending by NSW that I have ever seen by any team in any competition ever. Otherwise it was a near borefest. A lot of NRL games are borefests because they are played as five drives and a kick with wrestling until suppertime.

Top class bellendery right there, well done

Makinson had moved two of the bricks from under John's caravan, leading to it titlting to one side and his brand new A-Team cutlery set getting smashed.

Anyone know where I can watch the highlights online? Out the country at the moment and not seen any of the tries.

They'll be available via SLTV soon, probably today I should think.
