We have a tough first few games ahead of us. Always struggle at Harlequins and being so early in the season doesn't make it really any easier for us as we always tend to start off slow.
Bradford and Hull will be tough games aswell. Bradford have bulked their pack up and Hull have also improved in the off season with a couple of decent signings and haven't got anywhere near the same amount of injuries as last year.
The only game I can see us winning at the moment is the first game against Wakey and Cas at home, any of the others will be a bonus IMO.

im not that confident about any of the away games. i think we'll lose against Quins, and Hull, and think we may struggle against Bradford at home. i think we'll beat Wakefield comfortably particularly with Brough been out and Cas should be a home win, but we'll see.

Not really, especially with the new Play Off format as it is. Finishing 4th isn't a bad place to finish anymore and whilst you'd expect improvement from your side and look to push the top 2, finishing anywhere in the 4 is a success now.

Only 1 side outside the top 2 has ever won the grand final.

You do the maths.
Quite correct there, but without the additional games (bar 1) against the top clubs and more games against lesser oppostion no disrespect to Salford & Celtic, the top 4 is acheivable, and with the new play off system represents a decent chance to reach the GF.
WIGAN RLFC IS MORE THAN A RUGBY CLUB - IT'S A RELIGION There will always be a Wigan Warriors no matter what the bitter & twisted blues say
