People should be thankful they are alive In an era to experience this St Helens team. The current St Helens team are up with the other legendary super league teams such as the St Helens team of the late 90s and the St Helens team of 2006.

If I could be bothered, I would find the posts from mainly Wigan fans claiming matautia was a shocking signing when in fact he’s absolutely unplayable. When you consider Bateman is on 300k a year, matautia is worth quadruple that.

St Helens also have the best 2 players in SL by a country mile in Dodd and Welsby who are only 20 . That’s a scary thought that they will be the cornerstone of St Helens attack for the next 15 years

Come on you Warrington Wolves!

I think it is very magnanimous of a Wire fan to be so complimentary to one of their rivals, especially after a defeat.

Opposite fans have been saying that for 26 years despite the heavy falls of Bradford, Wigan and Leeds over that time span.
Half of the Saints teams near enough come through our academy that helps to challenge year after year after year.

And you didnt fall when Cunningham was your coach,Oh 26 yrs is only Superleague not Rugby league.
Wigans academy has been far better than Stains for years now.

How about you can keep winning academy grand finals and our academy will keep producing players who win the grand final with you consoling yourself “but we have a better academy” (so basically, I am more than happy to keep the status quo!)

Oh and

a) the Cunningham years brought us to the lowly point of 5th (a position we have never finished lower than in SL) and semi final rugby. I am sure plenty of teams would call that a satisfactory season.
b) 26 years (aka a quarter of a century) may not be when RL started but it’s rapidly becoming “living memory”. I was born in the 90s, started watching RL with my dad and Granddad in 96, it’s all I’ve ever known. I’m by no means the youngest any more, and the cohort of fans who remember the great Wigan dominance are no longer the majority. But keep consoling yourself with things that happened before I was born.

It is irrelevant when you was born as Rugby League was born over 150 years ago a bit more than 26 years (aka,a tad more than a quarter of a century)
The Cunningham years brought you and your fans so far down I actually heard a stains fans say I will go and burn his statue ,oh how we laughed.
Yes I can console myself with the late 80s and 90s also the other wins we have got.
Wigan have won more trophies etc than anyone in history Leeds are second Stains are third that is a fact,please look that one up.
I also would like to point out I love watching Wigan play Stains even if we lose,love the atmosphere etc.
Why your fans want to attack every other team so much I dont know,without the other teams you wouldnt be the champions you are.

We know you are good so stop trying to convince everyone else so much,it just seems very needy to be recognised as a champion team,we get that ,really,honest we do.
