Since the Top 8 was introduced Leeds have played the system consistently whereas previously although they may have won it 3 times those 3 victories wasn't back to back but apart from 2010 the wins have all been for Leeds 09, 11 & 12 the point I'm trying to make that people just either flat out refuse to take note of or are just too thick to realise how Leeds have played the system is that it's not that Wigan have set out to finish in any particular position or to play Huddersfield in the 1st round what they have done is played well enough over 27 rounds of the regular season without breaking their necks trying to finish top to just make the play offs and then have enough left to make a real tilt at the play offs which is precisely how Leeds have played it since 2009 and that's exactly how Wigan have done it this season it just remains to be seen if its successful no final table positions were set out it was simply a case of make the playoffs then kick into 2nd gear.

Looking back with hindsight it just seems wane knew top 4 was all that mattered (didn't matter where in the top 4) so once that was in the bag he spelled the players and managed the squad knowing they had the ability to do what needed to be done in the big games and they'd be fresh enough to do. Obviously I don't think losing as many games was part of the plan but it was inconsequential.

I'm always happy to clap even if it's a slow clap but then I suppose that means I am unhappy, which I am happy with.

Wane has done better imo.

Anderson has brought silverware to a club for the first time in 50 years with a few new signings but otherwise a team that consistently ran out of steam in the league.

Wane has brought silverware to a club that has underpinnings of success and the confidence that brings.

Wane has done well but Anderson better imo

Good to have an argument about which of 2 British coaches should get it.
