Dont really think Wigan fans can have a go at Wire Mods. Stats tell you that more people are banned from the Wigan board than anywhere else.

Very goodwin for Warrington, easily the better team IMO.

I think that's more to do with the priza d1ckheads that visit us here on this forum rather than trigger happy mods .

There's probably more banned on ours now, it's totally self destructed...Wire fans are even banned.

Talking of Stats...........Extremely Interesting Stats at this point in our season, given where we are in the table!! http://www.superleague.co.uk/statistics_club.php Tries - 2nd Position http://www.superleague.co.uk/statistics ... 09&hp2=250 Metres - Top http://www.superleague.co.uk/statistics ... 09&hp2=250 Carries - 2nd Position http://www.superleague.co.uk/statistics ... 09&hp2=250 Offloads - Top http://www.superleague.co.uk/statistics ... 09&hp2=250 Tackle Busts - 2nd Position http://www.superleague.co.uk/statistics ... 09&hp2=250 Marker Tackles - Top http://www.superleague.co.uk/statistics ... 09&hp2=250 Perhaps most surprisingly (I nearly fell off my chair when I saw this.... ) Clean Breaks - Top How the HELL are we where we are at the moment?!!......Couldnt beleive the breaks one especially. On those stats we're a top two team this season, compare us with Leeds and Saints and our stats are comparable and favourable. This does go along with what I have been thinking for a while though...we are clearly a top 2/3 club but something is seriously wrong to have those stats with only 6 wins from 15?!! For me, its the fact we dont have a killer instinct and can't break teams down as a team. The fact we're well down on the attacking kicks and Runs from Dummy Half also show our failings in the most important postitions halfback and hooker. For me this proves my point, we need a coach with tactics and moves who can get our players playing as a team, and we also need a WC halfback to go with tompkins to give us some orchestration in the middle. Get that and I think we will quickly go back to where we belong!

I went on there to see if there were threads about the excellent defensive effort Warrington put in, especially considering the amount of work they had to put in in the first half.
Sadly it seems Warrington fans are pretty poor winners who know too little about rugby league to have a decent discussion about it so have to resort to cheap digs at Wiganers, yet they still insist that wasn't their cup final, yeah right!

well, wire fans know that rugby league matches last for 80 mintues.
wigan fans think rugby league matches last for 60 minutes.
who knows little about rugby league now eh ?

I've been avoiding posting on this childish thread but have to respond to this. When was the last trophy you won? At least we know we haven't won anything for ages.

We aren't actually that far off the top sides in this competion (I don't think we have a great squad but there aren't any great sides in the SDL). A better coach who actually prepared the team and made them practise and then execute plays would have got us a top 4 spot this season. Unfortunately we have Noble, who just can't get this team to deliver results.
