Option B (the favourite) - Arrive in Manchester in time to watch Latics before heading to Old Trafford
Option C - Watch Latics and then head to the local as Wigan aren't in the final

not enough emphasis or reward for showing consistency through the season .
the league leaders shield means a lot to ME , ive been there through the drubbings at knowsley hole , then leeds the week after , 150 points + in 2 games , the laughing stock of the league , close to relegation , 4 drives and a kick , having nightmares about the next game but feeling the need to go , walking to the home games with a feeling of dread etc etc
our first silverware of any kind for almost a decade ?
ask any proper wiganer if this means nothing ................i will be very emotional at the bradford game seeing MY team lift silver
if we win the GF , its a bonus in my book after what we have wittnessed over the last 10 years , getting to the top and staying there all season takes some doing
the phoenix is rising from the flames !

So have I and it was the other way round. Leeds then Saints ![]()
In the context of the rules........it means nothing. Yes I'm proud as I said, I probably will be emotional, but the real prize is given out at Old Trafford. As I asked, 1st and fail to win the final or 2nd and win the final?

I get what you're saying and as someone who doesn't agree with the playoffs I kind of agree. The rules are though that the CHAMPIONS are crowned at Old Trafford. Therefore, anything less means we've won nothing.

I think the playoffs should be a seperate competition to give those other teams something to aim for like the league cup in football. Its important but not to the same degree as the rest. That way top of the league could be champions and then be in the best position in this secondary cup. I think the sport needs the playoffs for the money but the meaning from them is too high the champions should be the top of the league like us this year and saints all those times.

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif |

It would be taken more serious IMO if the prize for finishing top of the league looked the part not some crappy little hub cap frizbee

Yes it was very emotional at Hull KR after the game, lets hope we win the GF, but what ever happens the phoenix is rising and we've had some great away trips this season |

 Very well said.
It'll mean something to me. It means a load to my lad who's 14 and apart from a fading memory of the 2002 cup final hasn't seen us lift any trophy in his lifetime.
That said, the Grand Final will mean much more. Win that and I'm getting drunk for a week |

I'll certainly be celebrating. Coming top after a long season is a fine achievement and it's a real turnaround for our club. It's important to take the positives out of life. Yes, if we don't go on to win the GF it'll be a downer but that doesn't mean we shouldn't enjoy ourselves on Friday nor that we've "won nothing" when patently we have won something. Jeez, there's some real misery-guts around!
Let's have a big group hug, sink a few bevvies and head into the play-offs on a positive note.     |
