On the assumption that Fergie will get the coach award, do Wigan have a chance of the team of the year award at the Sports Personality of the Year Award ?

None of the major sports have had a team so dominant, and with Sam's profile getting good media attention and the RLWC having just finished, most of the sporting community will know who we are.

For winning 2 of the 3 available trophies? Don't be silly... Wigan as a town may get a mention, but don't go expecting owt else!!

Ok ... but should we be in with a chance ?

apart from Sky Cycling Team (who have thrown oodles of cash at their sport and also had major funding from UK Sport via the Olympic cycling support), I cant think of any other real contenders.
The Lions beating a poor Aussie team would be a travesty if they were named, or the Welsh RU team who cant beat any one from the Southern Hemisphere.

Several of the squad have been on Twitter mentioning suits for SPOTY.

Ok, call me "Mr Cynical", but much as i love the BBC, RL is hardly on the fricking radar... I would be astounded if we won anything... Unlike some posters on the board, i am always happy to be proved wrong..

A good portion of the squad are going which makes me wonder why?!

It'd be nice to win something.

cos its in the North and there will be lots of free ale ????

Didn't we win it 95? The year we won all 5 trophies?

1994.
Saints also won it in 2006

My money is on Team-Murray...

Could the award not go to "team Wigan" for the town/boroughs fantastic 2013?

The yawnion Lions will win it, which is a shame.
