| Quote moggie="moggie"It's nice to be mocked by these so called "big clubs" fans and shows how far we've come since winning the 3rd division title in 1992. A meaningful trophy is coming ever closer to the Giants and opposing fans can see this, that's why we get the odd few on here spouting off.
We won the LLS last season which meant a great deal to the club and us fans, that was a right monkey off our backs and shows the steps we've taken since getting back into SL for the 2003 season. We have now shown that we mean business and have the squad, ability and solid foundations in place to win trophies and be genuine title contenders.
It's not like Wigan have been tearing up SL since it started is it? They've only won 3 Grand finals and for the size of club Wigan are and money that's been pumped into them it's pretty abysmal.
As for last season, there were 3 trophies up for grabs and we won 1 of them which is a step in the right direction for us and shows we are improving. I bet there's plenty of teams who would swap places with us if they could do. We'll do well again this season and have a genuine chance of winning any of the 3 trophies on offer, people on the outside will not be shocked by this and it just shows how far we've come over the years. COYG!!!'"
My comments were about last season, nothing else. Hudds aren't as good as Wigan. They might be one day, but currently Hudds aren't a genuine threat, as much as you don't wanna hear it, it's true. |

| Quote Father Ted="Father Ted"As far as trophies are concerned.
Since and including 2010 when Lenagan got the coach he wanted in Mcguire Wigan have won a trophy each year.
There are three trophies a year to be won and over four season 12 oppotunities to win silverware. Wigan have won 6, Wire 3, Leeds 2 and Huddersfield 1.
That's why Wigan fans feel confident about this season. We may not win anything but at this stage we are pretty confident.
As for the LLS I rate it. Finishing top of the League means something to me and silverware is lifted for the winners. Wigan headed the League for some time and at one point were five points clear of Wire who were then 2nd. After the Cup Final form went down the pan.
It did show though that come the play offs the team were up for it. Having lost at home comvincingly to yourselves and Leeds the team won equally convincingly in the play offs.
Looking forward to tomorow night. I'm sure the best team will win, it usually does.'"
I agree with this. Currently Wigan are the best, like it or not. And likewise I do want a return to the league=champs format. I rate the league, when it's set up to mean something, with the playoff system you can finish way down in the league and be crowned champs by the end of it. Until this changes we can only go off who wins the GF as that's the pinnicle... along with the CC. |

| Quote jools="jools"Exactly!
In previous years other teams fans have accused hudds of being inconsistent- no mention of playoffs- last year they were the most consistent side in the competition. So they've found something else to have a go at.
What it boils down to is certain Wigan fans aren't confident of a win so are getting in their excuses early.
Either way it matters not- if we lose- well using their logic it's because it's an unimportant fixture we aren't bothered about and are using it as our second friendly before our week off. So I don't expect said Wigan fans will be on here doing any bragging after........will they............'"
Personally I'm very confident of Wigan winning trophies this season, far more than last. I think with the talent and depth to our squad , winning the LLS, CC and GF are a genuine possibility. We can afford to rest top players and still beat lesser teams.
If we beat Hudds on Fri good, obviously, but if we lose what does it actually mean in the grand scheme of things?Nothing. |

Not my fault, I didn't make it this way, the RL did with the introduction of the playoff system. Do you have to win all your league games to finish as GF winners? No. |

we won the league.... I'm quite happy with that we might not be champions but we won the LLS showing that we were the most consistent team through out the year so IMO we are the real champions as you'll see on Friday when we make your fans leave early AGAIN |

You only won the league as better teams don't value winning the league as much as the GF. When it came to the crunch you were cast aside firstly by Wigan and then Warrington. If you were truly the best team than wouldn't have happened now would it?
Surely you would have been able to beat both teams when it mattered wouldn't you? |

Haha! Really? What did you achieve last year compared to Wigan? Playoffs come aorund, win when it matters, who won again?
Who would the CC?
Who won the GF?
Didn't Wigan win both major trophies? |

Your arrogance and stupidity are what give Wigan fans a bad name.
Consider this; In 2012 after winning the LLS we lost to Leeds in the final playoff in the last 10 minutes. In 2013 we won the GF. (We also won the Challenge Cup after beating Widnes/Hull KR/London and Hull - the easiest route to success anyone can remember - in other words if Huddersfield had that lucky draw they too would have won - so would any of the top 4)
In 2013 Huddersfield won the LLS and lost to Warrington in the last 10 minutes of the final playoff.
Unlike Wigan who have lost their best player and Wire who have lost their best player Huddersfield have strengthened.
Your words are "genuine threat". Huddersfield have beaten every other team in the league on a regular basis over the last two or three years. To write a team off as offering no threat isn't just arrogant it's plain stupid. |
