)You dont think bateman is remotely as good as currie? Bit harsh, he was outstanding last night in a poor team performance.

I didn't expect us to win last night with the side we put out. Of course, we have a lot of players out. But so do most clubs, Injuries are so commonplace in RL, But Wigan are supposed to be one of the 'big' clubs (if not the 'biggest'), We would expect to have a stronger squad than we have. If a side like Widnes, say, loses Kev Brown, we know that's going to be a massive blow to them. But we should expect to cope rather better. Yes, we are missing our spine. But it's the unforced errors and the poor discipline that's killing us. One of the things I'm fond of telling all the RU fans in this part of the country is that skill levels, especially amongst the backs, are far superior in SL (and even more so,of course, in the NRL). But I reckon even Northampton or Wasps or Bath's backs would run rings round us at the moment. As I've said before, watching the Superleague Show, virtually every side in SL has shown more attacking ingenuity at times than we've managed this season. Wakey are an example.

We still have the same salary cap... Apart from Salford seemingly, and maybe Cats.

Well said!

Wigan injuries/excuses etc! You are genuinely missing some big guns. A back three of Lockers, Faz and J Tompkins is a huge, huge miss. Manfriedi on his own is a huge miss. Mcclorum is a huge miss as well- when he's back, the props get some confidence and with the full back row, you have a great pack. And that's without a mention of Bateman who was great last night. (Bar the jammy bounce off the post with his grubber for the try!)

For me you've got nowt to worry about.

It's nowhere near as bad as many on here think Gaz. The overall standard of SL has dropped or we would not be as high in the table as we are, and thats a far bigger worry for me as a Rugby League fan...

If we did the treble, some on here would moan about the colour of the water carriers socks...

I will definitely have a bet that that's never happened!

So, your view is that only you are right, and that anybody who disagrees with your view is not only wrong, but an idiot?

If you would like to point out where i said we were wonderful, and that it was our best performance of the season, please point it out..

you continually throw sarcastic comments about and when ond is thrown back you complain?
if anyone disagrees with me i have absolutely no problem with that and happy to debate.
ive listed why i dont think we are capable of winning anything what is your rationale for thinking we can?

I looked into the stand at who was sat there.....
Then i looked at the calendar and saw it wasn't October...
Then i looked at the table and saw that however crap you think we are, and i do as well at the moment, and saw that we are riding quite high.... So, we can't be much worse than anybody else, despite having our WHOLE first choice pack missing

As i said. i have not once said we are playing well, but you can't just look at things in black and white. Its so easy to be critical, and when ANYBODY says anything positive, it's jumped upon as if someone has told you they have given your mother surprise anal....

This is my last post on here.....
