A win at Saints would mean the world to me personally, I'm sick of walking away from their with a loss. Some fans from other clubs might try and wind me up by saing its my "cup final" well, it frigging well is! I would LOVE to walk away from their place with a win.

Don't see us winning all three, it's a really, really tough run of fixtures coming up in quick succession. 2 out of 3 would be outstanding.

After our next two we have a run of very winnable games. Getting one win out of Leeds and Saints would do me. I think it will have to come this Friday personally, can't see Saints losing the last derby at KR. They'll feel just as our players did for the last one at CP - they'd never live it down with the fans if they lost that one.

Agreed, but they dont have a Jason Robinson!!



4 points from 6 would do me, and I believe would see us remain top of the league.



What puts in a great position for this run of games compared to last year, is imo, the fitness of the squad, they will actually be more prepared to handle the demands.



It will be a test for Madge, who wont be used to that sort of schedule, thought I suppose having players back up from Origin is similar.

Agreed, provided we beat Stains!

A lot of Stains fans talk about Martyn scoring the last try at CP. It would be great if we could win the last derby at KR, that would be ample payback for that irritation and for the 75-0 humiliation.



If we won we'd have bragging rights for years, particularly if we win convincingly. The Stains players and fans will be desperate to win this one but we should be equally desperate to win. The Wigan players can take a massive step towards erasing the disappointment of the last decade by giving Stains a defeat the Stains fans will never forget and which we will never allow them to forget!



I'm sure SW in particular will have them fired up for this one. Let's give KR the send-off it deserves with a fantastic performance from Wigan to bring back memories of all those superb victories down the years by Wigan at KR. Bring it on!

Wigan should really be beating Leeds on current form, with Leeds crocked to the hilt.

Good Friday, frig knows. Cannot wait.

LMFAO



Remarkable turnaround?...... were you battling relegation last season?



You made the eliminator and finished 3rd as you have done since 07.



Whilst theres no doubt you are better this year it's not a remarkable turnaround, you are just more consistent under a new coach (no suprises there).



Coming out with 2 wins will hardly show how far you've come. You have a great record against leeds at the JJB when leeds are in form, let alone now, so a win will be no suprise and you've been very competitive with saints in the last couple of seasons.



I know you're looking for signs and indicators.............but the simple reality is you won't ''know how far you've come'' until you win that eliminator and walk out at old trafford. Because the past few years despite inconsistency you've come damned close to getting there and only in october will you know if you've made progress.

fair comment

You beat leeds easily last year when they were playing decent and had fewer injuries. Were you the real deal then?



Hull thrashed saints at KR, are they the real deal?



Bradford came back from 20 points down and beat saints at kr last season....were they the real deal?

I can't believe aby of you would think you're going to lose against leeds.



Leeds will be fired up and will try their guts out but they won't have the bodies or the form to get anywhere near a win.



You should win by about 20 points.

Fair Comment, but its different looking at it from leeds point of view as your aim is to win everything



at the start of the season most people said on here they would be happy with a top 4 finish, consistency and a good cup run, some others a final appearance



Only the last few weeks (after the catalan game) did people start to think we have a good chance of winning something







we thought we were until we lost the week after if i remember correctly



consistency really killed us last year, the loss at bridgend for example, i just cant see us losing much to lower clubs this year which is very pleasing
