I'm not normally too negative tbf. I'm just negative about this performance given the opportunity nearly blown in the manner it was
I'm ok with were we're at too. But aware we need to shape up double quick fast
1 vs 'last' years top 8....Or another way is 4 games vs the current bottom 5. Hudds loads out wigan loads out widnes loads out. Personally I think we're riding our luck a little. It's a bit double edged..Can be negative we're not there yet and making same errors most weeks, 6 games in + friendlies. .Or extra positive we're top without hitting our straps. Over the next month we hit all the current top teams and may for 1st time in yrs have to do it without the man of steel

Like for like imagine hull not having these like wigan counterparts to even start the game.
Shaul-tomkins
Fonua-Burgess
Carlos- gildart=even as hulls equivalent out
Tala-manfredi=even again
Houghton-macillorum
Watts-sutton=even again
Sika-Bateman
Mini-Farrell
Ellis-o loughlin
I couldn't imagine getting within 2 points with that personal out'"
Youn mean like when we played Warrington at home last season, couldt imagine getting within 2 points of that Warrington team with the side we put out. Wigan are always tough no matter who plays

It's been a very satisfactory start to the season. Five from six is our best start since 2009 (although we then went on to win only another five all year). If we win next week it'll be our best ever start to a Super League season.
Game for game we are level with last season with the defeat at home to Catalans and the away win at Huddersfield reversed. We've just won what on paper was our hardest fixture before the split.

| Cant really understand why people are so negative on here. It was amazing entertainment and we got the points anything else at this time of the year is academic. Its disappointing when teams come back at you but its also early season last week we completed at around 90% this week it was 50% that happens but I do think that if we can keep these two half backs fit and together we will see some great rugby down the track. Plus the biggest challenge we have as a Club at present is how the hell we are gong to replace Mini and Ellis, they were both massive again last night and when you actually take time to watch what they do on and off the ball, they are just a pair of freaks!

Irreplaceable both. Hopefully irons in the fire but both been platinum-standard signings.

The negativity is kinda strange. Maybe it makes a weird sort of a sense given how ebullient many posters were when your team was performing poorly.
With a trophy in the cabinet and top of the league, there's now some oddly downbeat posts from a variety of posters. Little faith that it'll last or have you been spoilt by success very quickly?

| This was a great result for us,like them or loathe them Wigan are a champion team.They still had a very good side out and were never just going to roll over without a fight,and fair play to them that's just what they did.

| Its all about putting points on the board and where doing that ugly at times but that's what the big teams do early on so they are in the mix at the end what wire would do to be in our position my biggest concern is injuries we seem to be mounting them up a bit and Danny will be a massive loss maybe a loan deal Liam Cunningham is playing well in the championship, Radders hit the nail on the head last night when he said the last 20mins we was running on empty due to all the defending we had to do due to our completion rate been so poor always straight talking and honest good win and a tough game next week any team who are as desperate as wire will be very dangerous and we have some key players possibly missing

James Cunningham has been injured all season, first game back this weekend, not sure why London would loan him, think we need to see how Houghton is and also see if we can cover it before making any moves for players.

After that miss we didn't score another point. Definitely all Sneyd's fault. I'd drop him next week. Useless buggar.
