Today's game is more worrying from a mental and pyshological perspective. Yes it was another bad day at the office with a lot of errors and missed tackles and yes it only cost us 2 points. We are still top and it's still in our hands. My worry is that when we play them again in the play offs, they have a massive confidence advantage. With the exception of the CC game they have had us quite comfortably the last few years. I hate saying it but I think they are better than us at the mo. league position says otherwise but taken in context, they are in front of us.

I think that was said after the CC defeat. Something is lacking and not just missing Tommy. No leadreship or direction on the field. Dare I say it Thats it for this season. lets look forward to next But we need to recruit . icon_biggrin.gifOH:

Very disappointing today, we were just not good enough. It is the big games that count and against Leeds in the CC and today, we have been found wanting. Its no good putting 52 past Wakefield then getting beat against Leeds in the CC and the following week putting 44 on London.

I think its too early to say its over this season, but many of the players were below par today. Skill wise and fitness wise we can win the League and the GF. Mentally though I am not sure at the moment. Wire have their tails up now and no mistake, but its not over til its over!

The Communist Cap - dragging down success and aspiration to the levels of those who cba.:



Again worrying.

I await the response of those who ridiculed my postings earlier in the season about "peaking too soon" or more accurately "reading into early results too much".

The reality is that I am now very concerned about Wane. You cannot help but like the guy, he is honest and a Wiganer, however, the question was always about his strategic nous.


I really and truley hope that he can motivate this team to win the GF.

However, irrespective of whether he does nor does not, I do believe that he has made mistakes. He hasn't appreciated the need to time the run in, he flogged our guys too hard in early (meaningless) matches and we are now seeing the results.

This is understandable, and he will learn.

I hope that it is not the end of our season.

The problem for you guys is Wigan are bottlers.

Look what happened in the playoffs last year losing to Saints, twice. It wasn't exactly the all time greatest Saints side either....

Also whenever Wigan play Warrington they don't turn up. I'm not trolling, you guys know it's true. The one time you did turn up was in the Challenge Cup last year at Wire where Wigan were red hot and that's the only time in the past few years that Wigan have actually played like their normal selves against us.

Its odd watching Wigan as a Wire fan because when we see you against other teams on Sky you are a consistent side that plays good rugby and looks pretty formidable but time and time again you play us and just look nothing special.

I'm puzzled.....over the last 3 years, Wire have 2 Challenge Cups, Wigan have 1 Challenge Cup and 1 Grand Final, which, if my maths is right, is 2 knockout trophies each.

So what's the big thing that makes Wigan so superior, or are you suggesting winning the Grand Final is more of an acheivement that the Wembley showpiece ??

Personally, I reckon that those who argue for the GF being more significant have simply been taken in by a Sky confidence trick.

Worrying thing for me, we looked a lot more tired than Wire with 2 more days rest, hopefully no CC final might give us chance to recharge, a few days away from the training ground would be my plan. Also would be great to get Tom and Paddy back but it will take time for them to get up to speed and we ain't got a lot of time.
One of the most important people at the club at this time Mark Bitcon.
Been a great season so far, regroup and on we go.
Hats off to Wire today, I did not think they could back up like that, but they did, interesting to see what the CC takes out of them, it took a lot out of us last season.

If Wigan hold on for the rest of the season and take the title off us then they will have had a better season even if we win both the cup finals.

We have built our great reputation for over 100 years on getting our games up for the big matches.

I am a little worried that of late, we seem to be failing in that department.

I know your presence on these boards revolves around getting bites out of the posters but you honestly can't believe that to be true!
