I sent this quote by Michael Jordan as part of a good luck message:

“Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships.”

Yesterday was a perfect example of all these. In recent previous seasons, if we had lost a player of Pat's calibre during a game, we sometimes had a tendency to have "rabbit in the headlights" syndrome.

Last night, we juggled the on field personnel around and carried on.

Quote: Cruncher "The difference for me is that the team of 2003 was a team on its way out.

We'll never know whether Greg would have arrested or even reversed that, but, though I loved Greg as a bloke, I don't feel he had the intellectual depth to his coaching that Michael Maguire does. He also didn't have the support from the management that Maguire has. You really get the feeling now that Wigan is a club that is going places again. There's been quite a lot of petulance towards us this year - from other fans, other coaches, certain pressmen - but the truth is that we've been pace-setters, not just on the park but off it as well. The club feels totally revitalised to me, at every level - whereas in 2003 there was an atmophere of malaise.

As others have said, 2003 saw a Wigan side that was big in names, but small on spirit and team ethic (they should never have fallen apart simply because one of their wingers was injured). 2010 sees a Wigan side that is exactly the opposite, and they've done so much better (including not falling apart when their star winger got hurt).'"

Great post. Very well put.

[quote="Frank Zappa":1sacjrvf]Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that.

Quote: tank123 "Sums it up very well. The team in 2003 had 5-7 genuine world class players.
The team for 2003 GF wasKris Radlinski, Brian Carney, Martin Aspinwall, David Hodgson, Brett Dallas, Sean O'Loughlin, Luke Robinson, Quentin Pongia, Terry Newton, Craig Smith, Mick Cassidy, Danny Tickle, Andy Farrell.

SubsGareth Hock, Terry O'Connor

The team for 2010 GF wasSam Tomkins, Darrell Goulding, Martin Gleeson, George Carmont, Pat Richards, Paul Deacon, Thomas Leuluai, Stuart Fielden, Michael McIlorum, Andy Coley, Harrison Hansen, Joel Tomkins, Sean O'Loughlin

Subs
We don't have any world class players, the other side had one in Farrell. What we do have is an awesome side that works for each other and the best coach in the league.

I'd argue Sam Tomkins is world class, even at such a young age. He breaks games wide open.
