Love the irony of Stains fans slagging off Wigan's 'brand' of Rugby. This was a team that based it's success on 'piggybacking' up the field using quick PTB's, which made for penaltyfests and a game which, although lightning quick, was very, very hard to enjoy as a purist. /> The rules have been changed to stop this, and it's Wigan who have adapted to it better. Games are much more about the tactical battle now, but we still have good, entertaining rugby.

Quote ="FearTheVee"So saying that I would rather win a game this weekend than lose it is the same as saying getting close is good enough? Had I said "if we reach the final I don't care if we lose" you might have a point. But I didn't, I said I would rather get to the final and lose than not get there at all. If you think hard enough you'll work out the difference.'" /> In that case, we're on the same page aren't we? Because I'd love you to lose a fifth final in a row, too. /> Oh the embarrassment.

Wigan last year. /> Warrie this year Saints next year. /> Cats following year ? Sharing it around is good for the game.

Never been a fan of the panic style rugby Sts play. They are the main reason we lose all the time to Aussies. England coaches think sts really meant some of the things they do/did, when all the time it was just sheer panic as the Aussies revealed when sts made up most of the GB team. So for that reason alone, I'd never want Sts to reach any final. Same goes for Warrington but down to the fact that they've bought a side rather than develop one like Wigan have. As for Leeds, I reckon Leeds Wigan would make a classic final.
