Quote ="XBrettKennyX"Yes I have enjoyed watching Wigan this season than last.
There are lot's of measures of improvement, but only one that is factual and objective.
We are out of the CC, but hey, that can happen to any team.
We are in with a great chance of getting to the GF. If we do then that will be progress.
I do not accept, like some on here, that finishing 4th in the playoffs will be progress.
I'm not sure what you mean by my "views" on Madge. I said at the start of the season that he was untested. He was imo. I am very pleased to say that he seems to be performing very well.
The proof will come when it comes to the playoffs and I sincerely hope I can post on here and say "I don't know why I was worried, winning the GF in his first year is a major achievement".'"
scoring more tries, more points, winning more games, losing less games, finishing higher in the table are all as factual and objective as winning a trophy and could just as much indicate that all other teams have gone backwards so in actual fact the subjective opinion that we are playing more attractive rugby could possibly have more merit than any of the above arguments. Your definition of progress based effectively on the outcome of one game or possibly one debatable penalty is far too simplistic. If being a rugby fan was all about trophies nobody would watch any of the clubs outside the top 6.
