We actually won all those fixtures last year before the super 8's split,
it was in the super 8's when we lost to Wire away but beat Saints away again
I have mixed feelings of the last 2 games. On the one hand we managed to dig ourselves out of a hole in both games, taking the lead in situations that many times last year we woud've just folded and lost by more. That shows that the squad isn't quick to give up the go, will still fight till the end and, eventually, find a way back into the game.
On the other hand, the mistakes that occured, at key times in the game, in the worst position in the fields are things we have seen many times before. Syned's kick that hit one of our guys that gave Wigan the handover on halfway against Wigan, Michaels' forward pass in our 20 against Cas being two examples.
EDIT: the post had Wire Away when we have them at home, which we lost, my bad
