| Quote: sally cinnamon "Ring would have been more appropriate in terms of Grand Final ring. I think for Wire fans now the biggest hang up is over the Grand Final and not having won it with time running out for the current generation of players. It would have been great to win a fourth Challenge Cup and the occasion of the Challenge Cup is the best day of the year (IMO it still will be as Wigan v Hull, it's still my favourite match of the year). But the Grand Final is the one we haven't won and if we lose in the playoffs, the angst amongst the Wire fans will be bigger than losing on Sunday was.
It's easy to take defeat in your stride in something where you have had a lot of success recently. If we lose a playoff there will be a lot more anger and frustration.'"
The Challenge cup is the better day out but the Grand Final is the big one IMO. With experiencing us winning both the GF of 2010 and then the CC of 2011 I definitely felt more satisfied with that GF win. It gives you a huge buzz, your officially the best team in the country and you get to play in the WCC.
I can't wait for Wembley and would love to win it but I'd trade it for a win at Old Trafford.

I’m sure there is arrogance at every club, even with those who have very little justification for it.

| The real loser of tonight was rugby league.
Just shows what a farce the system is where the league doesn't count. If the league counted we would have beat them by 60 and would be top of the league by now but because teams like us and Wigan are saving ourselves for the playoffs we have to put up with these meaningless fixtures.

3076_1671446335.jpg SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

| SC at his best.
Wire rested all their more mature players tonight in fear that the 11 contract extensions would play on their mind for the next few seasons. Rumour has it that the OAp's in Warrington are complaining that the Post Office staff are giving preferential treatment to the Wire players when picking up their allowance.

Well you know what its like with these old legs they have to be rested and used strategically, we know that they always get wheeled out for Wigan and beat them and fortunately with our farcical league format Warrington could do that to Wigan in the Grand Final or playoffs and end up causing a shocking injustice.

Didn't look meaningless for Widnes players or fans

I believe your coach was saving certain players but the team you put out tried their very best IMO. Result was a good game to watch for the non wolf. Competitive and hard fought, even if this only came about as a result if your coach's team selection. I agree, when it matters more your team selection, like ours, will be very different.

| Regarding Sally's post.
Tounge in cheek perhaps....
but
Is it not obvious that the sentiment (including the opening few words) are almost identical to a similar post on here after the Hudds loss.
In that scenario Wigan fans were pretty much united in agreement with the OP (LSOW i think?).
Lets not make ourselves look like a bunch of hypocrites just because it was Wire who lost this time......
Just saying like...

| Yes Widnes winning was a shock especially with 12 men, but that was their cup final. Wire (especially Tony Smith) couldn't care less. His comments pre match said it and so did the look on his face in the stands.
People are harping on about bringing back P & R so that the bottom clubs have something to play for at the end of the season and have more intense games, well what about the top clubs?
I wasn't looking forward to this season because I didn't see the point, but the first few weeks got my appetite back. Now I'm starting to wonder again why I bothered. We're losing matches and I couldn't care less. That can't be right in sport.
