Sorry Robins, but Wigan always find a way in these games

JOHN LAWLESS SCRUMS DOWN ON THE RUGBY LEAGUE SCENE
-
AFTER all that, we've ended up with a repeat of last year's Betfred Super League Grand Final as Wigan Warriors and Hull KR again go head-to-head at Old Trafford tonight (KO 6pm, Sky Sports Main Event).
But will we end up with the same outcome?
Last October, Wigan emerged victorious with a 9-2 win in a typically hard-fought season finale.
The only try of the match was scored by Warriors standoff Bevan French with a trademark solo effort in the first half.
French will again be one of the X-factor players most likely to produce the key moment in tonight's encounter.
And that’s what these games often come down to.
