Quote ="Jint"I had a fiver on Bradford. I just felt that as great as Wigans start has been that they have had some very favourable fixtures and a bit of luck going their way. Definite top 3 side though.'"
I'd agree with the luck part but the favourable fixtures thing is being exaggerated having played Warrington away who are tipped for 2nd by many and Rovers at home who are tipped for 4th by Garry Schofield thats 2 games out of 4 at least against decent sides. Yes we had a bit of luck against Warrington in Solomona dropping the ball as the Saints fan pointed out (as he would) butthese things balance themselves out like a team going ahead for the first time in a game with less than a minute on the clock to come back as happened V Bradford, pretty unlucky if we're being that ridiculous about whats lucky and whats not.
Some Wigan fans were being totally ridiculous and asking for threads like this by getting carried away but I've still seen a more interesting style of rugby in 5 games this season than for years at Wigan and I'm more convinced that we now have a coaching team who are able to address issues on an ongoing basis such as who needs to be dropped/rested and stuff. If we carry on through the season losing one game every five I think most fans would be happy with that.
