A crowd just a few short of its capacity 38,000 saw a tough, tense and thrilling battle in which Wigan’s team made up entirely of thirteen Englishmen beat Manly to claim the world champions’ tag. It was a pivotal night for Wigan and the game of Rugby League - relive all the memories on this DVD and see stars like Andy Gregory (pictured), Ellery Hanley, Joe Lydon, Shaun Edwards, Henderson Gill and company.
