40mins worth of poor rugby have defalted some people beyond belief in the same way that 4 and a half good games made alot of people go way overboard.

The facts are we're a good side and we'll win more games then we lose but as I said last week i'd still be happy with a top 4 place at the end of the season. Any talk of walking through this season and sweeping all before us was silly as is any talk of us being a poor side now.

That defeat last night should enable all Wigan fans to find a nice balance of where we're at.

I'm as disappointed as any that we lost last night, but out of 10 half's of rugby played, we've played badly once maybe twice and we got burned for it.

I'm with Nick, one bad half won't change my perception that the Wigan club as a whole is heading in the right direction, we look fiter, are style of play is better and in general the club is on the up.

Although I woke up a little miserable this morning my thoughts are now past the Bradford game and are focused on Hull FC and maintaining are 100% record at home, if we continue to do the good things in are game we'll be there or there abouts in all comps.

Last night we just switched off that's all nothing more, and I firmly believe that.

Spot on

Top 4 should be our aim, and a 80% win ratio will probably get us third or fourth spot, something which i will be happy with

I think the defeat will give the players a reality check, and i think we are very capable of beating hull on our own patch which will give us 5 out of 6

An 80% win ratio would probably get us top spot imo because the league is so tight but I don't really expect that.

If we lose around 7 or 8 games we'll be top 3 and thats a realistic ambition imo. We need to keep the form at home going and and try and improve our ball control, discipline and attitude(going simply on the 2nd half last night) away from home.

It's still happy days at the moment imo.

Were definatly a good side but were far from brilliant, theres Leeds Saints Wire Us Huddersfield who i think will be the top 5 in any order who knows, then Bradford, Hull KR, Hull FC, Cas and Wakey who can beat anyone on theyre day. Going to be the most competitive SL yet IMO. Great for the game of rugby League. I agree with how people go from 1 extreme to the other. We went from going unbeaten all year to going to finish 7th with a decent cup run within 40 mins icon_lol.gif

Thats the way it is with some Wigan fans and always have been.

If we win on Friday against Hull the Treble will be back on and some will be discussing where we should play the World Club Challenge next season.

If we lose we may aswell pack up for the season and start planning for 2011.

The bit in bold is why I think our win over Warrington will be crucial come the end of the season.

Nah, if you lose it'll be another wakeup call...a blessing in disguise!

In 2006 you had an enormous amount of blessings!

No your not - your all over the place, where have you been the last few weeks when we have been winning? Nowhere to be seen on here, no doubt you will disappear again if we win next week icon_ask.gif

Quote: lothlorian "For me this could be the best thing that happens this season. We started the game like we have played all year. On fire. But Bradford all credit to them gave it to us second half. We have a tough month coming up Hull, Cas, Leeds, Saints. Lets get realisic, we are a f**king good team but not the finished article. Lets get back to the grind, stop believing the hype and work hard at getting back to the top. Wigan are rising and will get back to the top, but this league is tough with some very good teams. The next four weeks will give us a good yardstick as to where we are. There have been some really silly posters, talking about going unbeaten all year etc etc..... This league is wide open, for me any one of 4 teams can win super league.... cmon Wigan, lets gets stuck in and bounce back next week'"

We were never ever going to go 'unbeaten' all season and TBH we all knew this streak would come to an end soon, albeit, we didn't forsee it to be V Bratfut. I for one am still really impressed with the start to our season, despite the defeat, we are still an inform team.

COME ON WIGAN!!
