23 - 20 - 4 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

Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union. www.squadbuilder.co.uk:1883.jpg

Making ridiculous statements, on events yet to happen is foolish to me.

WIGAN WARRIORS SUPER LEAGUE WINNERS 2010 CHALLENGE CUP WINNERS 2011 ST. HELENS GRAND FINAL LOSERS 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011.:



Warrington, still not a big club, getting to Old Trafford is half the job, winning it is another. Loved the look in Smiths face after the game....... classic game though, well done Leeds Rhinos.

The Communist Cap - dragging down success and aspiration to the levels of those who cba.:



Further proof that the regular season is an absolute joke.

Leeds are champions and full credit to them for playing the system.

Wigan won zip, and were suckered into thinking the regular season counted for something.

And the thing that is most annoying is that at the halfway point in the season we were playing superbly, at at level no other club has achieved this season. But it counts for nothing because we peaked at the wrong time. Our team and squad were easily good enough to win the title, but we didn't. Lots to ponder for the club during the off season.

And this is the key point.

When we were winning mid season I, like many others, pointed out on here that winning at that time counted for very little indeed. We were shouted down by the happy clappers.

In fairness though, I did take a step back from the issue. If an enthusiastic amateur such as me could see it, surely the head coach and background staff could see it too?

Sadly it appears not, which is very very worrying indeed.


As I said before, I await talk of how grueling the off season was. "Toughest off season ever" etc

One word. Pointless.

OMG how many hypocrites roam these sites?

Hands up who was ed about Wanes selection at Widnes? the Huddersfield performance and many more which at this moment I forget and the backlash that happened on this and other sites...

Wane and the wigan fans as a group can't accept defeat, yet we all know even more so after tonight that the regular season means very little under the top 8 system.

So what do we ALL learn for next season? that we spend the season building for the games that matter even when all seems lost, because that is what Leeds have proved that wins the title. Yes they may be a freak team and fair play to them if they are, but i doubt that they would have been so complacent about their league form if the system was a top two grand final or the previous top 5 system. We need to learn how to play the system.

Sam Tomkins comments after the leeds game still fill me with dread!!
