It's the same as last years so you don't have to learn anything new.

See Bilkos Play off page, it is pretty simple to work out.

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

FIOS

That was because Hudds and Hull KR were in the top 4.

This year the first round fixtures look like....

Wigan v Leeds
Saints v Wire
Hull FC v Hull KR
Hudds v Cas

Great fixtures.

Its a shame Bradford won't be there again.

I have a feeling Cas could shock afew.

As for Wigan not winning the GF, I believe we will get there. We will play Leeds or Hull at home and then will play one of those again at home to get to the GF.

We will play wire or Saints in the final and we have beaten them both this year. To say that we won't win is silly because we can.

The main issue I have with the current play off format is the strong possibility that teams have the same fixtures twice within a series. Plain daft.

Good chance week 1 will be

Wigan v Leeds
Saints v Wire

and week 3 will be

Wigan v Leeds
Saints v Wire

plain stupid. Leeds can finish 4th and afford to lose a game and still win the GF!!!
We only have to lose one game to not get to Old Trafford. All previous 1st place finshers prior to 09 have had to lose twice to be prevented from going to OT. Only the RFL!!!!!!

Which we're plainly aware of, hence him saying we can win, not we will win.

What is it with all the newly registered low post count wire fans on this board?

we all have to start somewhere. I hope your not trying to imply that the wire are now attracting the glory hunters. :wink: after all wigan did that for years.

Merely pointing out a fact that both have beaten wigan, at wigan may i add. I personally would hate to have to predict the GF winners because i think it's going to be an exciting playoffs that at least 1 of 4 have a good chance.

you mean in 06 when being 6 points behind at the bottom..wiganers came out and showed why we are the greatest club in world rugby. when others run we stand shoulder to shoulder and no one can deny that.

Never been prouder to be a wiganer

No, I was merely pointing out that if you have a good look at this board and stay around for a while, you'll see a never ending stream of low post count recently registered Wire fans who when you check out their posting history, spend the majority of their life on the Wigan board stirring up trouble - several of them I suspect are the same people getting banned and making new accounts (quite why that isn't fixed I don't know). It's been like this for over a year now, and i've beyond lost patience with it.

However, looking at your second post on this thread in response to me, you don't seem to be one of them, so I apologise for being so terse - you're more than welcome here if you play nice.

back OT, i'm with you, it's going to be really hard to predict the GF winners and it's going to be the most exciting play-offs for a long time. The injury couple of injuries at Saints and Leeds and ourselves make it even more unpredictable, as does the play-off format. I've got a sneaking feeling Wire will go well as I think there's a sense of urgency in your team and players to make it happen either this year (or maybe next), or it's not going to for quite a number of them - that hunger will be good for you.

Re: Wigan will not win the GF : Mon Aug 30, 2010 9:49 pm  
I think the fact that were injury free as opposed to the other top 4 teams will stand us in good stead. I still wouldnt write leeds off though although i think they'll find it hard to pick themselves up. I fancy us to get our much desired win at knowsley road ( just wishfull thinking but after saturday's performance you never know.) and a wigan, wire final. Damn i said i wasnt going to make predictions. :D
