You must be in your element at the moment.
For the first time in your life, your predictions of disaster look like they might come true.
All we need now is a special bench outside Wembley, where you can sit with Red Hot Jalapeno, and every time there's a groan from the Wigan crowd, you can congratulate each other and say, 'See ... told you.'

I recall someone being annoyed that Wigan were "getting a rookie coach!" when Maguire was appointed.... Wonder how that worked out, wish i could find it.
I think the only "Controversial" opinion in certain peoples eyes, is anything at all positive.. 'Twas ever thus....

| I have only been watching WRLC "live" since 2003 although followed from afar since the early '60s (How i loved Granstand on a Saturday and floodlight Rugby League midweek) so i am pretty much a novice compared to most on here so i have not been "scunnered" yet and still kean as mustard to get to games.
I said to my son at half time at Salford first game of the season (26-0 up and playng well) we could win this League in a canter this year. How wrong was I. Got a lot to learn this old one lol.
When we win these days it's is ground out results . When we loose it's without a fight which seens a strange thing to say about WRL. I am sure we will win the Cup and take Superleague by Storm next season as "Things can only get better" can't they ???
As i say "Got a lot to learn this old one"
Regards , Ew

| Our mighty front row showing their worth again
Clubb - 10 tackles, 6 carries for 50 metres
FPN - 11 tackles, 7 carries for 42 metres
Sutton - 34 tackles, 13 carries for 64 metres (good defence but awful with the ball)
TT - 18 tackles, 10 carries for 91 metres (best of a bad bunch)

From the Saints game:
Walmsley - 25 tackles, 20 carries for 180 metres
Taylor - 25 tackles, 20 carries for 145 metres
When are we goint to sign a pack leader?

| Those stats are shocking....I listened on the radio (BBC MCR) for the first time last night....they had a lady that works with Wigan on the commentary, i kept missing her name, she literally broke down ever error wigan made, she called our plays for what they were and was less that happy. Surely as she works for Wigan, the fact we are not playing well at all is common knowledge amongst the staff? This appears to be less than an easy fix, have we all missed something? Are the players themselves not happy?

Those figures are utterly appalling.

| I don't get all this negativity, we ground out a win against a form team in poor conditions, keeping them to one try. What's more, Saints got beat so if we win next week (which I strongly expect us to) we will most likely be 1 or 2 points off a play off spot. We are World Club Champions and in the Challenge Cup final in a fortnight. Lighten up!

| At least we know how many season ticket holders we have....10.000 plus a few hundred..
Couldn't have been more than 7.000 on.
Mind you. Who would walk up to pay and watch that e.
We have plenty local teams that play better rugby and are better coached.

...and at that point we play away to teams whose season is very much alive. I wouldn't be surprised if Saints & Hull put 40 on us and SW trots out the usual post-Wembley pish about player fatigue.
If the players are fatigued and need a decent pre-season, don't fly them around the world to play a home game and an exhibition game.

Not much use if we don't know how many minutes they played.

doesnt affect the decision making, passing out overlaps, stepping inside when he was drawing players for the pass, the gap he created then passed to sam instead of just scoring, kicking when not needed and killing play. He had a stinker
