Quote: DP_wwrlfc ". If the game was closer or it was against a better team no way would Wigan concede soft tries like that.'"


Thats just a load of rubbish. Simple reason being is that champion teams have pride in their defence and dont like conceding soft tries. Sometimes your just way off form,at sixes and sevens and it cannot be helped, thats the case with Leeds at the min, but not with Wigan.

The Leeds of previous seasons loved nothing more than defending their line. Practice makes perfect. If Wigan cant be bothered stopping those soft tries then they dont have pride in their line. Leeds have always had the mentality of "if your going to get over our line, your going to have to work for it". Thats what makes champions.

When Cas visit Wigan later in the year, Cas will go into the game with a confident mentality as they know last time out they scored some points against them with ease. Whereas if Wigan would have had pride in their line and shut the door on Cas then Cas would go to the DW Stadium with a bit of fear and lack confidence.

Quote: Rogues Gallery "So your mate goes over to Wigan every other weekend asks all and sundry are you going to win the lot, and the majority say yes, yet all the fans on the RL fans have their feet firmly on the ground. I know who I believe, and it's not your mate. Do not tell me no wingers are getting carried away! get real! my mate is over the dark side for sunday dinner family bashes and the like and his words to me were them lot are convinced! So it's not all of them but it's not non either as you claim?

And some Leeds fans are panicking, calling for players to be dropped and coaches to be sacked, not sure what relevance that has to the form of either club more a reflection on the whole entity that is "the fan".

Generally the feeling is we are going well picking up the wins without really having to put together a full 80.

Seems to me some random bloke who wrote this "article" has hit a raw nerve with Leeds fans, it has with Wigan fans too but simply because it is a poor bit of journalism given the stage in the season we are at.

Wigan fans are confident but not OTT, the feeling when we go into every game is one of confidence and why shouldn't it be. Very few expect a win but most are confident of a win regardless of who we play and I do not see a problem with that.

Wigan are at the top of the league and have not set the world on fire, which is a good sign in my opinion. To a man at least on these forums Wigan fans feel the next 3 games will give us more of a realistic idea of how good we are or could be, seems to me the Leeds fans who are biting to this article are the ones that felt the Loiners were going to walk through another SL season untouched.

Well i know a good few and i work in Leeds.

It is ironic that you use the my mate line, yet discredit it when it is returned in kind.

I also hear the line "well you have played nobody yet" every week from them too.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg

Yet your evidence of Wigan fans getting carried away and stating we will win everything this year, is based on the same premiss as mine.

Fans are fans, you cannot speak for them all, just as nobody who posts or claims to your mate Wigan will win everything speak for the sensible majority, so why use it to try to justify your argument?

Find me a serious post from a Wigan fan that say we will win every comp we play in.

If you cannot see the stupidity in your argument and criticising my response then you are a pork pie short of a picnic.
