Quote: "Wigan 2014 for me - we had a great chance to win at the end and we get penalised on the first tackle for obstruction? A dawning realisation that we were on a bit of a downward trajectory'"
Fair shout that one. I didn't expect us to win it, so it didn't feel the same as the 2011 one in that sense, but as you said, we did have a great chance to win it and I think we'd have had a very good chance of beating Saints in that final if we had.
Last night, hard though it has been to take, I think would ultimately have led to defeat to Wigan next week anyway if we had won.
In 2011 I was convinced we were winning it and then we didn't even make the final. That was brutal.
