In todays papers Shaun Wane as said he will not accept any bad performences this season! he will drop players to the under 20's and will not accept anything other than all 3 trophies hes said he will be really tough on the players

I'd be happy with just being champions again.

That's the main one.

Don't think we've got the squad for all three trophies

That Under 20s squad has the potential to be run away champions !

I am not having a dig at Wane here... but I am concerned by his lack of patience. What made us so good under Maguire was being patient, not needing to score on every set, grind teams down. Wane seems to want to play differently, I hope it works. It could work better with our total lack of a kicking game now Deacon has left.

Unrealistic with the squad we have.

And the lack of a kicking game. All the other top clubs have great kicking games.

I don't care what anyone says Wigan are the only team capable of winning all 3 nobody has a squad like ours quite simply because we have the best U20's side in the competition, Although I don't see us winning all 3 then nobody else will I guarantee Huddersfield wish they had our Forward cover for the 1st game.

Shaun Wane seems like the Gordon Brown of the league, knowledgeable and thoughtful but hopefully

unlike Gordon Brown he is able to lead at the top level

A man with no target hits nothing.

i;ll settle for 1, discounting the hub cap

The last thing the team needs is so much pressure. Stuff like this won't help, I'll be more than happy if we can win 1 out of the 3, favourably the grand final. Winning all 3 is a lot to ask of our squad and I admire Wane's ambition but I think even he must know deep down it's an unrealistic target.

JEEZ.... If they don't start the season wanting to win every game, i don't want them in the team !!!!!!!!!!!! Stop being so wet !!!!

I've seen a lot of interviews where Wane talks about this more attacking style but there was very little evidence of that on Tuesday. It was mostly 5 drives and a hoof up the pitch. I'm holding any real criticism back until we've played a competitive game. We shouldn't be criticising Wane for saying this though, whether it's realistic or not.

Dont be do wet !
Pressure ? they are well paid professional sportsmen, they must have ambition and drive instilled into them. Wane will take no prisoners on the commitment front. They are playing with the most famous rugby badge upon their chest.

Spot on.

Not sure where the story is about three trophies (I don't get the Wigan papers in South Yarkshire), but I did find this on tinernet:

Good stuff from SW.

Looks more like a chess piece than a rugby badge!

Personally i love it when players and coaches say we want to win everything, i hate the wet response of taking every game as it comes blah blah boring.

Atkins said it when he joined Wire, everyone panned him for it and i thought, well in lad, show some spirit, passion and commitment.

People who say this may very well not win all 3 but surely that should always be their goal, so what's the harm in vocalising it?

Great to aim for all 3.

Personally I don't think our squad is good enough (IL what HAVE you done with the money that was freed up?), but fair play to SW for setting out his stall.

SW can show what he means alright.
I can think of one or two props who weren't that great at Salford yet Tom Spencer knocked the Huddersfield pack around all the time he was on the pitch.
Spencer is one I feel that could and perhaps deserves a place in the 17 v the Giants.

Good.

Great, only place to aim. Can't wait for season to start, been a long time without RL in S Yorks

not being funny here, but we are Wigan, we should be starting every season out with this attitude

Looking at last season it went pear shape after the CC final. But look at the fixtures we had to endure Warrington, Stains (twice) Leeds all within 6 weeks of each other. No team in the SL could have coped with that, this season potentially looks easier on paper. Potentially we could win all 3 would love the CC and the GF but would settle for one of these.

Has to be the GF this season.

The CC was a nice day out.

Sadly that good feeling didn't last that long. It's just not as fulfilling as being the champs and that's where I think we to be.

100% focus on OT its all that should be on the players minds
