Quote: Father Ted "Wane and McGuire both won the LLS.
Although it is fashionable not to rate this achievement, I do.
To come top of the League after 27 games played makes a team the best in the League. The fact that the RFL/SL have the winner of the GF the League Champions proves that they have separated the "Champions" from "The best team in the League".
I pay my season ticket money to watch League games. They matter to me!
Play Offs and Cup Ties mean I pay additional money to watch which makes them additional competitions in the season to the main event which is the Super League fixture season.
I may well be a minority of one on this!'"
They matter to me as well FT. They also matter to Saints fans or their chairman wouldn't having to be issuing the statements he does but at the end of the day Wane won't keep his job if he wins the hub cap year after year and Saints win a GF off the back of poor league seasons.
IL wants finals and he wants continued improvement. If Wane agrees to give these while saying we can cover the losses of the players going such as Mossop, Richards and Sam then he's going to have to deliver.
How many meters we make in the league won't count if we don't and if Wane decided he knew better than Madge and changed a winning formula and loses then he will be judged on that as well by IL despite the change in personnel because he will have accepted those anyway.
I still think he will be here for next season but I think he will have to deliver then if he doesn't this. We can obviously still win both and the big tests are coming. Lets hope everyone is fit and we don't end up debating was he right to play Murphy at 1 or whatever.
