| Quote loiner81="loiner81"Who mentioned 18 rounds?
3 of those 5 defeats came on the bounce after injuries kicked in around round 13, before then they'd also only lost 2 and were swapping top place with Wigan every other week.
No one knows what would've happened had they stayed relatively injury free but to claim Leeds were nowhere is just total **** and to also make claims like they'll be nowhere this season just shows a total lack of RL knowledge for the OP.'"
Yes and its easy to say if wigan hadn't got injuries we would have won the league leaders. End of the day wigan was 6 points clear and when both teams had full squads we was still at the top. Not going to look at injuries in which round as it makes no difference, teams are judge on the squads not first 17. |

Meaning i'll quote you on it later in the year, unless you're the only Wigan fan in existence that doesn't make excuses when you lose, in which case I won't  |

See you are just making assumptions now. How do you know that? Actually I don't make excuses, and neither does Shaun Wane - that makes two of us!!! There are probably more. I've always thought that Brian McDermott is pretty dignified in defeat (as FWIW so too is Kevin Sinfield) |

I don't recall too many of yours missing Magic (round 16 after losing to Saints in round 15) through injury? '"
Not that i'm bored, waiting for a job to start or anything but it took me all of 2 minutes to find you saying the complete opposite last year, only a week after that match. I was looking for a moaning about injuries post but looks like you actually ARE that 1 Wigan fan so this'll have to do.
Quote Aboveusonlypie="Aboveusonlypie"
Wigan have been performing really well this season so far, but everyone knows that Leeds will be a different proposition come September/October and also Leeds have had a much tougher start to the season than Wigan. Easy points will be picked up over the next few weeks. The difference between the two teams is paper thin. We lost the play off qualifier last season by one point, lost at Leeds in March, also a close game and managed to win another close game last week with only Green missing from our best team, whilst Leeds had missed half of your pack, including this season's stand out prop.

Kind of backs up nicely what i've been trying to say, thanks for posting it. |

Mate, when you've followed Leeds as long as I have, being gracious in defeat becomes second nature. |

I suppose you could trawl through everyone's posts over time and come up with inconsistencies. I guess that is what makes us human after all. We all change our minds over time especially if we are given new information. I am glad that I was able to at least prove to you that not all Wiganers moan about injuries. I do try my best to be fair and I also obviously rate Leeds (as do the vast majority of Wigan fans) as I posted earlier on in this thread. Excuse me for being a bit thick - but what is your point actually? |

So because your upset about a posters opinion you then make up stats from last year?
Majority of people know leeds are dangerous in the play off games but it doesn't change the fact you haven't won a challenge cup in god knows how long even even when your coach and players make a statement of intent on winning it and you failed in play offs last season. I full expect Leeds to reach finals and semi finals as a minimum doesn't mean your guaranteed to win them or the posters opinion are invalided, wigan might flop this year but i wouldn't go off on one and start lying about games last season. |

| Quote loiner81="loiner81"Wow. New sig material right there.
Leeds were cruising & top of the league last year before all the injuries.
I'm not saying they'd have continued like that but despite the worst run of injuries i've ever seen at Leeds they still finished 3rd before running out of steam in the GF eliminator.'"
Yes I know. As I said they were nowhere and I'm predicting the same again. |
