agree!

as soon as i saw this topic appear afew week back i shook my head.

enjoy old trafford and i think you'l be champions on saturday.

Year of the Wolfs.....

Looks like he does.

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.

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.

Year of the wolf

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.

Totally agree no point been awsome in June.

It's always their year

'Cos Wire are a massive club

Who ...have no history

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.

i may be in a minority but id have gladly taken wire's season over ours.. a win at wembley and an appearance at old trafford....... or the hubcap???

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!!
#bloody exiles matches!

I'd agree with that.

I am not entirely sure what you are saying here. That the format should be different? I'd agree with that.

That Wane resting players after 6 games v Widnes was right as if it made a God's grain of difference to our end of season form?

The simple fact of the matter is this. You can't expect people to buy season tickets or buy tickets on match day for a 27 round season if it means Jack s h 1 t. As it clearly does.
