And rightly so we are the biggest, most successfull and famous team in all of rugby.

Yes they have. Saints did it in 2006. In fact, they won the treble and then went on to win the following WCC too.

I don't think Wigan fans should complain about the system after losing to the same team twice in the play-offs. Wigan haven't been the same force since beating Leeds at Wembley, a new coach might be just what they need.

We just lost form for the last 4 games of the season in the same way Leeds lost form for the first 27 games.

Warrington deserve to be champions. They have been fantastic this season. Am i right in thinking they did the double over Wigan, Saints and Leeds this year?

The system doesn't effect us. We finished 2nd. Its that a team aren't rewarded for being the best over 8 MONTHS and yet a team who can be the best over 1 MONTH can be. We are complaining for the sake of our sport and our league The 27 league campaign will be become obsolete(sp?) and people will stop buying tickets if striving to finish 1st means nothing. The intensity will drop too. It'll ruin the game.

With the play offs as they are now. In theory if a club has the courage and risk to do it, a club could use half its first choice players for all its 27 games and finish in 8th place.
For the play off games they could go to full strength selection for the 4 remaining games as its only the play off games that matter.

Had we won last night and gone on to win next week, nobody on here would have said a thing. They're the rules which we all knew at the start of the season.

Saints and Leeds were the better sides on the day and deserve to be in the final. I've said all season long I didn't want to play Saints come playoff time and think they will win it next week.

Find a new idiom.

We've had numerous threads on this subject before last nights game?
Being the better side on the day is what is needed to win cup competitions. Its shouldn't be deciding league championships unless there is a completely lop sided fixture list. i.e prior to 1973.

We have yes, but had we won the GF there wouldn't be a single Wigan fan saying 'We aren't the Champions the system is wrong blah blah blah'

And since 1998 the GF decides who is the Champion team of that year, End of!
Whether it should be or shouldn't be is not the argument, Whilst it is the 2 x teams who get to the Grand Final played the rules as they Stand the Best and deserve to be there, End of!
As i've said numerus times before, do not use the current situation to decide that the current format isn't the correct one.
The 2 x teams that got to the Grand Final played the season in the way that best suited their club and their circumstances and have got their rewards.
"IF" the league was decided by the 27 league games or a different play-off format those same clubs would have had to amend their way of thinking and play the seaosn to those rules and not the present ones.
Whose to say that "If" the season was dependant on the 27 league games that the "League" would have ended the same way it did?
Whose to say that "If" the Play off format was different the same 2 x teams may have reached the Grand Final anyway as they would have played to those rules throughout the season.
You can't Hypotheically change the rules at the end of a season and then say the results over that season would have been the same or whatever, the rules at the start were the rules.

The Best 2 x teams who played to that system are in the Grand Final!#

Well done Saints and Leeds.
