Quote ="Sibbs Rhinos"I'm not writing us off yet, however bad it looks at the moment. If the likes of Tomkins got injured or suspended before the game would Wigan fans still be so confident? I said it before in that Wigan could be peeking too early, Wane doesn't have much experience and could be trying to prove that he is a capable coach by doing everything to win in the weekly rounds.'"
According to their fans they are just getting warmed up and will get 20 times better when the injured players come back and win the grand final by 100 points.
On another note why do people do that?
We were guilty of it sometimes in 2004 and 2005. When your team pretty much puts in perfect performances ''nah, we were in 3rd gear, we'll only get better.
after saints 70-0 in 2004 ''we looked like we weren't interested, i hope we get out of 1st gear next week''.
Wigan are on an 8 game winning run, in that time they've demolished grand final runners up 3 times and demolished the champions on their home patch with a weakened team. It is unlikely they will hit a better vein of form this season than the one they are currently experiencing. Having posted that i fully expect to be proven wrong as I always am but in my experience a team hitting such good form nnow has a nasty habbit of dropping off towards the end of the season.
