Simply The Best is the fascinating inside story of eight heady
seasons when Wigan RLFC were undisputed kings of rugby league,
going 43 consecutive Challenge Cup matches undefeated and winning a
record eight Challenge Cup trophies in a row at Wembley. The
secrets behind the signings of Martin Offiah, Frano Botica and Joe
Lydon. The enigma that is Ellery Hanley. The emergence of rugby
phenomenon Jason Robinson. The wit of master playmaker Andy
Gregory. All are revealed, along with the fun, the egos, the
fall-outs, the spectacular tries, the drinking, the sacking of head
coach John Dorahy, the magic of John Monie and the local legend who
is Shaun Edwards: the only man to play in all 43 of those cup games
and whose feisty spirit personified a team of charisma and panache.
Edwards lifted the first and last of those trophies as captain
before the greatest rugby league cup run in history was derailed by
a swirl of complacency and revenge. At its heart, Simply The Best
is a story of hard men and extraordinary achievement.
