Agreed. I wasn't convinced by Leeds either circa 2007-2009 as Saints were their usual selves in those Grand Finals. |

I doubt it. Given Wigan's forward domination last week McGuire wouldn't have made an ounce of difference, just like he didn't make an ounce of difference given Warrington's forward domination in the CC Final. |

Wigan are worthy champions this year.
They're fit and tenacious in defence. MaGuire is clearly a very good coach. They smother teams as they did to Saints and us last last week.
Then on the back of that they have that little sheeeyite Tomkins. I said early on he was a bit of a one trick pony but I was wrong. He's a very special talent. Very special indeed.

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif |

| Quote: Keith Swiftcorn "I'd expect Wigan to wear their Champions Crown next season with an air of supreme professionalism and distinction. I don't expect them to tarnish the game with the kind of odious brand of indisciplined and unprofessional behaviour we've witnessed from the previous champions who spent their entire 2010 season whinging and whining and hoping misfortune and injury crises afflicted other teams with great vengeance, in order to offset and mask their very own deficiencies, p[ii[/isspoor performances and results.
Hearty congratulations to worthy champions Wigan in 2010 for raising the bar and setting the requisite standards of performance and behaviour.
Message to Leeds
 Keith Swifcorn please take a bow
In Wigan we call this the 'Wigan way', we win but do it in style, within the rule book upkeeping sportsmanship and discipline.

i wasn't convinced at all.'"
It's all about being there, Saints were good enough to get there, but not good enough to win it - we didn't let them play.
Quote: jdrocket "not so sure about that. They looked anything but world beaters in the 2 games against us and we're lacking alot of form and some spark out wide. we nearly put 2 over on them. They're well drilled and well disciplined I'll give you that. But lets not read too much into what they did against saints, who were their usual selves in finals.'"
You must be joking, and who claimed we are world beaters, certainly not us, one step at a time picking you off as we go along, Leeds last week...Hammered! (but for a dodgy VR it would have been nilled too) Saints yesterday, Hammered!
Quote: jdrocket "A team nicknamed the pies cant even cook a decent pie in their stadium!
Still congratulations to them, for being champions!'"
I'm sorry I can only apologise for this, they really are shameful - comes from the stadium owner also owning a crappy pie firm - if it's any consolation most of us don't eat them either - wouldn't give 'em to my dog (if I had one)
....and where are BatesyLUFC (still laughing???) and Dave65 who hasn't been seen on our site since Donna showed him the way out
roll on 2011 |

In Leeds we call unsportingly and deliberately cheating the salary cap the "Wigan Way".

| Totally deserved win by Wigan. Best team by some distance this season.
As for Saints, very far removed from the 'undefeatable in a GF' team we were told about by fans of the entertainers in the run up to the 2007 final. They certainly are entertaining |

Wigan shouldn't have been anywhere the grand final this year. They should still have been rebuilding after their cheating of previous years salary caps.
They were given dispensation in 2001 and promised to adhere to it in future (with a written guarantee). What bollox that turned out to be. Castleford have never recovered.
The RFL are a joke.

IF ? IF ?
IF Pat Richards had kicked the penalty in Week 1 of the Playoffs then there wouldn't have been a game at Leeds would there ??

If Wigan had been relegated instead of Castleford then you wouldn't have been anywhere near the GF. Just accept it, Wigan have cheated throughout the SL era.
Toddle off now petal.

I also thought that last night. Most of the team was built by Brian Noble, and assembled illegally at the expense of Castleford |
