Overall: Another average season, perhaps a slight improvement. Noble needs to realise the season starts in February and not in September, finishing in the top 2 Wigan could easily have won the grand final for the last two years.

Player of the season: Pat Richards

Best New Signing: George Carmont

Disappointment: Mathers or Fielden(again)

Game of the year: 16-16 draw with St Helens.

Disappointing Game: 34-4 loss to Huddersfield Giants at home or 52-16 loss to Leeds Rhinos.

Highlight: Putting 106 past Whitehaven.

Atmosphere: Wigan v Saints final game of the season

Boring Game: 8-4 was Wakefield Wildcats at home.
