| i do agree, after 6 games last year we had 10 points - we are on 9 points with a game in hand at present which could take us to within one point of the current "champions" as they seem to think they are. jeez.
we have played the current leagues "high achievers" in 4 of those 6 fixtures and have only shipped 84 points in defence in total. if you would have offered me that before the start of the season i would have ripped your hand off and slapped my own face with it in acceptance!
we have leeds away next which ok will be a TOUGH game but after that we have the CC against Barrow where a couple of our better players will no doubt be rested and hopefully if we get through that we have a nice little run home and away in the leage.
Wire have so far beaten saints and us which is of any big concern. wire lost to hudds who we tonked. we deservedly lost to wire and should not have given up the lead against saints if you ask me there is hardly anything in the league at the moment and indeed...
don't panic.

There's no reason to panic. We underperformed, we got very little from the officials and Wire played very well and made few errors and still the game was fairly close until near the end.
We have a number of players who are either new and are not yet playing that well and many players out injured or coming back from injuries (I include Amos in that as I am not convinced he is fully fit). We have quality of the likes of Pat and Hock to come into the side in the second half of the season.
There is absolutely no reason to panic. I still think we will retain the SL title.'"
Well said sir !!!!!
p.s. loving the picture of 'The King'

All of this is true apart from the first sentence. Wire a still a long way from being champions, and I've seen very few posts from Wire supporters that make any such claim. I think we can claim to be a good side, though, and a genuine contender for champions. Same description applies to Wigan.

| Just to re post what many have said and there is zero reason to panic.
ATEOTD Fridays result won’t really influence who wins the GF.
Any one that needs to be reassured only needs to look at the fact we lost to Wire at home last season. Think of how many times under the Noble regime we hammered Leeds and then watched them walk to three successive titles.
Wire, imo, are the form team at the moment but again, imo, we are still the best team in SL and we’ll be there in October.

| I'll start panicing if we're outside the top 4 going into round 27 of superleague.
Aslong as were within that top after the regular rounds we stand as good a chance as anybody of lifting the trophy at Old Trafford.

Point 1 , it may not but probably will.
Point 2, Yes you are correct, last year we beat you but this year not only did we beat you we TOTALLY dominated you, and thats the difference.
Point 23, I agree you will be there in October, but you are no longer the best team in Super League

| I don't know why people are worrying anyway, Warrington are a great side and played superbly on Friday (God that was hard!!). We ain't gonna win every game and every derby game this season. Nor are Wire.
Sh*t happens. End of.

Brave call after 6 or 7 games. I seem to recall Leeds struggling at this time of year and going on to win the Grand Final. I'll worry who the best team in SL is around September when the playoffs begin.

Point 1 Friday was worth 2 points nothing more, same as the two points you dropped against Hudds(a team we beat) Thats the nature of a league.
Point 2 You totally dominated a Wigan team that was under strength and coming off the back of a gruelling match whereas you had a stroll against a poor team. If you think it will be that easy every time you play us you are in for a shock.
Point 3 If you think you are the best team in the league just because you beat us in one game you ar very very silly and that metality probably explains why you have about 3 championships and we have 19.

If you really think beating Wigan last Friday means you will now win the league then your sadly mistaken.
Wigan lost to Wire, Leeds, Hudds and Saints towards the end of last season but still won the GF. The win vs Wire was a highlight of a very good season but had zero influence in our play off win.
You really didn't dominate us and with a bit of luck, which seemed to all fall to you, we'd have scored three other tries on Friday. You were the better side but did not dominate us by any stretch of the imagination
Btw, imo, we are the best side in SL.

6 games into a season isn't the time to say "We're the best team in SL". According to the SL table we are the 5th best in SL. At this moment in time, although I don't like saying it, Warrington are.

I'm sorry but your talking out your backside saying "We are still the best side in SL". It doesn't matter who you've got on the playing roster it matters what you do out on the pitch. Prime example Harlequins, on paper - worst team in SL but yet they've turned over St Helens and Leeds away, before being torn to pieces by the current best side in SL - Warrington.
Now we can sit here on our keyboards until we're blue in the damn fingers, it doesn't change the fact that the Wire are CURRENTLY better than us. With the team we put out due to injuries and suspensions etc, we are nowhere near the best side - and the SL table shows it regardless of whether we've played one less game or not.
NB. Note the word currently/ current. It means I think Warrington are the best team in SL at this stage of the season. It doesn't mean I think they're going to beat all before them and reign supreme. It doesn't mean that I don't think Wigan are not as good as them - far from it.

So a couple of weeks ago Castleford were the best team in super league?
After week one Crusaders were the best team in the league? Lets not get silly.

No, I'm not saying that just because Warrington are top they're currently the best team in SL. You've completely missed the point.
Consistency wise, form wise and man for man, CURRENTLY Warrington are the best team in SL. Like it or lump it, Wigan are not the best at this moment in time.

How it talking out of my backside? Win our game in hand and we'd be 2nd?
By your reckoning any team that beats another is instantly better than them. How does your theory work on these results?
[urlhttp://wigan.rlfans.com/news.php?readmore=827[/url
Were quins then the better side after this bad day at the office?
What about this perfect example?
[urlhttp://wigan.rlfans.com/news.php?readmore=728[/url
That to me looks like a spanking for Leeds. Were Wigan the better team at that moment in time? Not by a long, long way but occasionally the better team loses.
Now with us being 6 games into the season and having played one less game I’d be very reluctant to shake any belief about who the best team in SL is.

What consistency wise are you talking about?
All that separates us is one draw at the start of the season?
One win doesn’t make or break an excellent team.
