Quote: FlexWheeler "I was returning the favour of his awful posting style (FACT). He's rabbiting on about how saints have done this and that during the regular season. Saints beat leeds 3 from 4 in 2008. They lost the 5th in the grand final. FACT. Saints beat leeds twice during 2009, they lost the grand final. FACT. Saints beat leeds 2 from 2 in 2011....you get the picture. My point was regular season head to heads are not much of a barometer for the playoffs, so essentially his FACTS are meaningless.
FACT.'"
Oh dear. You seem to be confusing facts with your opinion
People have been offering the view that Saints are a write off and that all Wigan need to do is turn up. Saints beat us in the home game with essentially the same team they have now as Walsh went off injured early on
To argue that regular season form is meaningless is bonkers. There are essentially six teams with similar win/loss records and therefore six teams with a chance of winning at OT. No team has played well enough to be considered favourites.
In my view, and this is ONLY an opinion, the standard in Super League has slipped alarmingly since we won it in 2010. No team is dominant any more.
How anyone can have confidence in Wigan after the performances at Bradford, Wakefield, HullKR and Widnes is beyond me.
