You mention consistency then judge teams off just 6/7 games? Thats totally mental.

Exactly going into Friday's game we were more consistent having not lost a SL game.

Again one game does not change anything and FWIW I’d be happy to salute Wire in a few more games should we not get back on the horse.

But if we do go on a bit of a run into Easter and are one point behind them I fully expect many to say we’ve got the best team in SL.

Regardless of where we are should we win our game in hand, we are not the best side in SL at this stage.



Not at all. By my reckoning the past 4 games consistency wise has effected my opinion. Warrington have been more consistent than us in these games. That's probably due to they have near a full strength side, where as we don't.

You've formed that on one result. I'm talking about CONSISTENCY not ONE result in the previous season. But on that night, second half more so, Yes Quins were the better side. Before you say it NO they weren't the best SL side either.
What about this perfect example?



As above. We were the better side on that night, but that didn't make us the best in the league



Thats your personal opinion - one I disagree with but it's one your entitled too. My personal opinion is that Wigan are the 2nd best in SL at this stage, purely down to the injuries and suspensions we have. Not due to the fact that we were beaten by Wire. I said after we beat Huddersfield (not on here) that I thought Warrington would beat us as I thought currently they were the better team.

I'm not too concerned with who is the best SL side yet, it could be Warrington, Crusaders anyone for all I care. I'd sooner be the best overall side at the END of the SL season - and have that claim backed up with another GF win.

Ok. Yes you are the best team through 7 games. What relavance that has to anything im not really sure. If Cas win their game in hand they will be joint top.

All good, debatable stuff ( although there were plenty of Wiganers - your Point 2 - who thought that that situtaion would prove an advantage to Wigan ), then you spoil it all by the silly remark about championships won. The opinion of one fan in 2011 can hardly be cited as a reason for league results dating back more than 100 years!

Whether they are or not is a moot point. Given the nature of the competition all a team has to do is finish in the top 3-4 and gear up for the knock out stages.

I disagree with OP and frankly would be panicking if I thought we played well on Friday and got beat like that.

We did not play anywhere near well and that is the reason why we should not panic. We will be ok soon enough.

Agree we did not play as well as we can but the intensity was there and i dont see many teams matching us or Warrington for intensity. I still maintain we were not that bad and alot of the errors were forced by a very good Warringtion side. Question is can we step it up so we beat Warrington maybe three times in a month from 4th Sept through to the Grand Final.

Shhhh! that last bit was just to stick the boot in on the daft bugger

come on lets not turn bitter its not the wigan way. To be fair i thought wire looked very good on friday so credit were its due. However a full strength wigan side would have won the game. Lets not forget they're also missing King
