Quote: sergeant pepper "The Wigan is way is all about demanding the absolute best, setting the highest standards and winning stuff. Isa busts a gut and is a decent and likeable guy, but so is Smithies as so will Bateman + more next year. We've got too many average, run of the mill players and fans just seem to accept it. Hank, Bibby, Isa, Marshall, Clubb all give us depth when in reality we need that extra quality.
I'll fully lay my cards out on the table and say that I think that current SC level is wrong. It's weakened us to position where we just feed the NRL and that's not good enough for me.
I'll ask you the same question - what does the Wigan way mean to you? What do you want for the club?'"
Like every fan, I want to win trophies and that's why I'm as ed off as the rest of us right now, but if we replace these run of the mill players as you call them with extra quality we become what we were in the 2nd reign of Uncle Mo. A decent 1-13 and then f*** all else.
In this modern day.....that doesn't win trophies.
I do agree with you on the SC level though. We have dragged the top teams down to the same level as the poorer teams rather than challenged them to get better.
As good as Saints were last year, they get hammered by their 2006 side every single time.
