That's why I walked out 20 minutes from the end of a particular borathon after supporting the Wire at all stadia in the league for nigh on half a century. Not been back since.

2011 and 2012 when we were at our absolute peak, we ran into an all time great Leeds team who were relentless winners when it came to playoff and Grand Final rugby. In those years we could blow most teams away with our attacking power but Leeds were good enough not to be blown away and to get us into an arm wrestle where they had enough leaders and players with experience of winning games of that intensity, to get the edge over us. Because we were a good side its easy to forget how that Leeds team dominated Super League - the 2012 win over us was their 5th Grand Final win in 6 years.

2013 Grand Final we got two bad injuries that disrupted us. Wigan weren't the great team that Leeds were but they were good enough to take advantage when we lost our shape.

Honestly speaking, with the exception of 3 or 4 games the Price years were awful. I'd rather have DP given the choice between the two.

One of the reasons I really dislike Wigan was because of this game. I hated their game play which I believe led to the 2 injuries you mentioned. Michael Maguire techniques are still prevalent - and now seemingly adopted by John Asiata.

I think the Wire are not ruthless enough to win games that matter. The winners employ all sorts of gamesmanship & are willing to exploit the rules & referee to the nth degree. Leeds started a fight in back play as we were pressing their line & that possibly saved them from getting beat. As a result ,in the confusion ,Leeds managed to get back up to our end & i think they scored again. As for Wigan ,they were disgusting with their tactics to injure players.

Blake Green bossed us in that Grand Final. If we had been ruthless we should have sent Westwood out to take Green out in the first couple of minutes. Punch him in the face as he's going down in a tackle. Do it in a sneaky way so the ref doesn't notice.

The problem is we just let Wigan play dirty while we were the choir boys.
