There is always a comfort zone with rules that encourage a level playing field rather than innovation and growth.

Lets not also forget when we got 30 points in '04 there was more games in SL, we played the bottom teams 3 times and we'd also lost more games that season then this season........

Class of '09 Well done!!!

good season for you guys.. better than most fans predicted

You been banned from the Wigan board.?

Fantastic stuff from the boys, now lets kick on, A win at home in play off's another record that needs to be broken.... see you all at Hearwell stadium, get your tickets early guys.

Really good effort from the team this year have done better than anyone could have expected. Now for a good run in the play offs!

Thing is, if you look at the teams we might have to play - its really hard not to get carried away with or expectations. Nobody in particularly devastating form at the moment, even Saints looking more than a bit shakey....

No reason to fear anybody in the play-offs, the only teams we haven`t taken points off this season are Leeds (Should have), and Giants - 2nd half implosion at Home, good effort at the Galpharm. 1 win each against those 2 and we could have finished 3rd/4th

yep should have won the league that season if it was not for a league double we lost to Barrow

Being waiting years for a season like this and its not over yet who knows what the next month will bring

As for the likes of Martin Offiah who had us down for 14th up yours Mr Offiah

We were fairly average, but I'd take beating the third placed team whilst playing average as a sign of a more experienced team able to approach the play offs with some maturity. Some of the commentary was critical, both in terms of within the game and how it compared Wakey/KR to others in the top 8, although at least Stevo had the sense to see kicking dead for territory was controlling the game. What I think some on Sky seemed to forget was how bad other teams have been playing. Saints look well out of touch, Hudds looked good for a long while but have shown they can be beaten and Leeds had a poor patch a month or so ago.

Bull!

To all the people who said that we were gonna finish bottom and struggle to get to twenty points at the start of this season, how's the humble pie?!?!?!?!

32 points, absolutely amazing achievement.

Very true and with us carrying a good bit of form into the play offs we should have a really good crack at it.

Explain a fairer way then.
I think there could be some encouragement of player development.
For example, maybe 2 players who have come through your own system not be included until they reach a certain age, or played so many games. But other than something like that, it seems to have done a pretty good job.
There is no cap in girlie-ball, but you can pick the champions from only 20% of the league. And will only change with wads of dosh, and take a while.
And who would have said at the start of the season that neither Leeds or Saints would reach Wembley.
