In 2010 pat richards went off injured at half time, wigan had a smaller lead (16-6) than warrington did (16-2) and managed to close the game out.
I don't like seeing wigan win anymore than you guys, but they are worthy winners. They may not have as many 'name' players at the moment, but as a unit they are exceptional and the way they move the ball wide and isolate opposition wingers and centres is not too dissimiliar to how australia play, they are very slick and well drilled and were tremendously clinical once 16-2 down.
I agree with noel that theres no positive to this, but when you win a double theres only one way you can eventually go.
