I sure wigan will still make the top 8. But start of the Season most were saying theres only Wigan who can challenge the BIG 2.
Do you think Wigan will make the 6?

if they play like that definately

Yes. We'll probably be about 5th/6th.

If they perform like they did tonight, consistently, I don't see why not.

5th I reckon.

playing like that no reason why we shouldnt finish in the top 4! after half of the season last year saints where lingering around 4th/5th, end of the season they where in the grand final! now is the time for wigan to kick on.

tonight was an assesment which shown what we can do! no team bar leeds or saints could of lived with wigan tonight!

No. Too inconsistent.

Lets not get carried away, tonight was a very good performance and we deserved a draw at least I thought. BUT you watch, we will not pick up maximum points on Monday versus Catalans & next week versus Celtic.
We will screw up one of them......and for this, no we won't hit the top 6.

Unfortunately I am inclined to agree.

I think people are getting carried away, Wigan's performance tonight was not that good. Saints looked tired and by their standards it was an average performance. Saints did enough to win it.

Its not about getting carried away, most of us wanted to see some effort and commitment from the players as this has in my opinion been the main barrier to putting good performances together. If we can keep up the hard work that we showed in this match then I feel we have a decent enough squad to do pretty well, that said its a big 'if'.

Well I've just watched the first half again on SKY and we lead the breaks 8-3 so far, so i'll disagree with you. With a little more application we could have been at least 18-6 up at HT. A tired Saints team is better than a non tired team outside the top two., so to not only compete but shade the match I thought was a big improvement on where we have been recently against Hudds / Cas / Wakey.

i feel wigan will make the top 6. they played well against saints, but they looked a little short of ideas near the goalline when they had the 3-4 back to back sets. or maybe saints goalline defence is maybe just too good?

against a "lesser" side than saints the possession they had would have resulted in many more points than 12 so i think they will finish 4th maybe 5th.

Hudds, Cas and Wakey would have beaten Saints on that display. Although Wigan did play well I have never seen Saints play as bad or make as many errors.
Wigan missed out on not going in with a healthy lead at half-time as you say.

The trouble is we dont play saints every week so we wont put in a perforance like that against celtic etc..

Huddersfield maybe. Cas & Wakey. No.

I think we will struggle to make the 6, but we will make the 8. I hope.

We'll make the 8, which IMO means we always have half a chance.

It's a measure of your ambitions if your happy to only lose by 7 points.

Wigan made some brain farts last night regarding when they had the ball.

They were average at best, Saints didn't have to do much to crack the defence and as soon as Wigan took the lead, Saints had the ascendancy straight away.

It smacks me of poor captaining and you needed a cool head to win that game.

the issue is that everyone with half a brain cell knows we are guarenteed to play worse than that this year, but everyone is unsure about whether we will play better.
Until we play like that for 5-6 weeks running - we have no hope of coming close to anything
Finish 6th due to a late surge as usual

Oh dear I've just voted yes and 44% have said no. Where's the faith?! We're meant to be Loyal Supporters! Have faith they'll do it! They'll definitely reach playoffs anyway haha

Put it this way.That was the worst performance of the season from saints and they still had enough gears to grind out a result.
If saints had been playing anyone apart from yourselves ,salford and celtic they might have been beaten.
Too many saints players looked knackered and the leeds game must have taken hell of a lot out of them.
Sorry but wigans best performance wasn't good enough to beat saints worst..That must be a little worrying for you wiganers.

They weren't tired in defence and that's where tiredness shows. Don't believe everything Stevo says. They haven't played as many games as Wigan and through Wigan not generally playing an expansive game, each game has been close and tiring.

I'm trembling and breaking out in cold sweats.
Oh, hang on a minute, I've got a life. I feel great!

Could the mighty Wigan fail to make the top 6, IMO no.

Why have you bumped a 3 year old thread?
