| It really is NOT the Wigan way to be relying on other teams to do us favours.
It's happened to us in the past, as it's happened to all teams, but it should never be something we look for.
Cas have earned the right to turn out whatever team they wish this weekend. We haven't even earned the right to be in the semis - if we get there thanks to Cas, we won't deserve it.
It's time to call things the way they are.
The Wigan of 2017 have been inept, hopeless and an embarrassment, and in some ways it would be better if the season ended now so that we can put it behind us and move on.
Would I be happy if things dragged on and, thanks to Castelford, we reached the semis? Of course I would, because I always want Wigan to do well. But if we don't make it, it would hardly be a surprise or an upset. If anything, at least we'd be able to commence the rebuild that's so urgently needed (though yet again, Heaven knows how or where we can make that happen as quickly and comprehensively as we need it to).

Leeds 8 start on the coupon.
Wakefield 8 start on the coupon.
Salford 14 start on the coupon.
Castleford to finish first Leeds Second Hull Third and Saints fourth.
Semis Thursday Cas - Saints Friday Leeds - Hull
No chance of top four for us.'"
Leeds don't have a start.

| Assuming Hull win tonight and we still had 'club call' who would Cas pick? I suspect they'd go with Hull.

Sky bet as now given Huddersfield 6 start.

Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png |

| Cas fans will still be bullish about their championship credentials, but I'd be slightly concerned after last night if I was them. Time will tell if that was a smart coaching move (not bitter btw).

| I think if they where playing Hull next week it would have been a bigger issue.The confidence going through that squad has to be sky high and I think it will take more than a heavy defeat when you rest half of your team to dent that.
On another note it shows how well we battled earlier this season when we had more players out through injury.
