I couldn't care less if the Champions are from a village as long as they weren't crowned from 5th place.

Sorry mate , but i wouldn't mind us winning it from 5th

I'd have preferred Warrington to have won.

Leeds have had an average season and won the league, again. Fair play to them but as has been said, it makes the sport look ridiculous.

No I'd say he's spot on.

3 challenge Cup finals and 2 SL finals in 3 seasons says to me that Leeds are better than their league table suggests.

Not their fault they play the system better than anyone else or have a savvy coach who doesn't flog his side in April.

And that's why SL is in the gutter.

You might not care but the rest of the country does. The rest of the nation has never heard of Warrington.

Warrington as champs = zero credibility

Champions from 5th = minus 5 credibility (imagine what it will be like if one day 8th was to be crowned as CHAMPIONS)

The reason SL (and RL in general) is in the gutter lies in the hands of those at the RFL.

What was the result when Leeds beat Saints this year in the play-offs? And v Wigan last year?



Leeds are the most unworthy "champions" in the entire history of the game. I suspect you know this also.

They don't play the system better. Anyone who thinks they engineered this is living in cloud cuckoo land.

They have benefited from the system as it stands. There is a BIG difference.

I think unworthy is unfair dave, granted the system is flawed , but Leeds have proven again that they know how to win big games and achieve success....you can only go out and do your best in the format that is laid out , and thats what Leeds have done...they ahve achieved what everyone else set out to do , so unworthy...definately not

Thats the system.

The New York Giants won the superbowl last season but had unspectacular pre playoff form. No loss of credibility there? That's because they accept the system and people gear for that one game. Whole seasons are planned to generate that one special moment.

I'm sorry but how have they benefited? Its a benefit playing every week away at Wigan and Catalans and then beating the 2nd placed side in the final? Thats cuckoo land.

Its blindingly obvious to me that Leeds peak at the right time. They do what they need to get in the play offs then back their talent to beat anyone else in them.

They've had it harder than we and Wire have this season and last.

Exactly! It really is that simple. And no-one is blaming them, as some are suggesting.

End of the day it will be my team with that big shiny "Champions" badge on their arm (again) next season so I couldn't give a monkeys what you lot think of the play offs,

Have a nice xmas, see you all next year!

What a load of rubbish

Maybe 2013 will be the Year of the Pies?

With signings like Matty Smith and Blake Green you are making efforts to close the gap between yourselves and the top clubs and I am sure with your great crop of youngsters that are always coming through, Wigan have every chance of being competitive next year.

For me it's not so much credibility, it's a money concern for me.

My worry is fans adapting to the system the same way the players have. If the fans start to only turn up for derbies and playoffs, then the money will float away from the game and the game will crash.

This may never happen and maybe it's a fear that will never come true. But you can see the arguement about why fans should not bother in the weekly rounds.

As for the players playing the system, that's fine, it's the rules we have.

2/10 and even thats generous!

Which ickle fish do you think your going to catch with this?

Flattering to deceive throughout the year but rubbish in october.
Maybe youll be better next year?
Another year older times running out?

Am i talking about sally's fishing attempts or the wolfs league title chances?

That was the worst post I've seen of Sally's.
Have you ever seen the wire win the league?
I think my grandad might of!!!

Its not like a team winning the league from 8th has ever happend in this country is it?

You clearly have no idea how the NFL works.

Was that Dewsbury when Stevo played for them in the 1970s?

I think Wire finished top that year, I bet our fans were proper mickeyed off at that.

Have you ever seen the Wire win the league?

ahhh I was looking farward to these threads



All joking and bantering aside..

We all know Wire are far from a liked team in super league. However as much as we annoy you and as much as some of our fans are tasteless, (every team has them, c'mon admit it

) I think it would be wrong to say we didn't deserve it, the past 3 seasons I've seen a massive turn around in our team. And though we didn't win I'm still mega proud of the boys.




See you all next year for a snotting at the DW!!

Why so serious?

I've been waiting to say that for a while hahahaha.

But honestly Sally, Rainclouds are still chasing you.. and down they have poured!

But then you will moaning if the team finishing second beat the first.
