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.'"
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

| 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'"
agreed.

| 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!!

| Quote: DaveO "No it wouldn't. That's just a cliché. You can learn form your mistakes but it's better not to make needless ones on this scale.
My concern is with a big game coming up V Hull it will have boosted their confidence no end and done ours no good at all. After all chucking away a 20-0 half time lead and conceding 22 unanswered points is a pretty appalling performance.
Dave'"
Dave of course this is a possibility. However, how much of a motivating factor would it have been for Hull to be the first team to beat Wigan this season and claim a 'scalp'? I believe that Hull are a better all round team than Bradford and by the end of the season we will be closer in the league to them than Bradford. By this logic we are better off losing to Bradford than to Hull. I believe that Wigan will play better against Hull as a result of the loss than we would have done otherwise and if we go ahead against Hull we won't be complacent about it as we may have been otherwise. Unless of course we are unable to turn things round and lift ourselves after a loss, or the coaching team are unable to make the changes necessary to prevent us making the same mistakes, in which case we are in no better position than we were under Noble and your posts so far this season suggest you don't believe this to be the case. I genuinely think we will get a big kick up the backside during the week and throw everything at Hull, we have put in some good performances this year and a really poor half doesn't change that.

| As Nobby said it's how you finish, not how you start that is important.
Hopefully the result will have 2 effects:
1. Ensure the Wigan players don't believe half the cr*p that is posted on here about them being "fantastic".
2. Shut some of the "MM can do no harm" brigade on here up.

| I was also a little disappointed in MM's comments about how Wigan managed to throw away a 20 point lead.
"Matt Orford can burn you....."
What???!!
I'm sure he can, but the reason Wigan lost was on account of themselves, not Matt Orford.
Concentrate on the lack of intelligence, discipline and professionalism in your own camp Maquire, not on the skill level of the opposition.

You've taken what he said completley out of context, perhaps you need to read again what he said.

Or perhaps your suffering from selective reading of his comments.

The art of Rugby League Tactics According to Dally Messenger
"Just use dummy runners": |
|
| Orfords try on the last tackle was as soft a try you will ever see. Wigan just switched off. Top teams dont concede try's like that. That said, im sure it wont happen again and I still stick by my top4, even top2 prediction for wigan.

Nobby was wrong then. And if he's still coming out with such idiocy, he's wrong now.

He was very wrong and basically used that line as a cover up for an obvious inabillity to get his sides motivated early on in seasons.
During Nobles time with us it was his biggest weakness imo and what eventually led to his downfall. We always finished the season well but come the final eliminator game we'd be out on our feet and it always proved to be a game to far. If we'd have started a season under Noble how we finished them we'd have been top 2 and more then likely have made a couple of finals.
I see no reason why this Wigan side can't start this season well, have a good middle and finish it strongly. We're a mobile side with a mobile pack that imo will get better as the pitces firm up.
We're bound to have a couple of blips at some point but i'd rather have them with points on the board then starting the season off with them.
