And it doesn't seem to matter if what SW says is true, some people on here have only one response.
Yes because I'm well known on here for being anti-Wane :eusa4:

Care to explain what you think his plan "a" is and what you think his plan "b" should be?
Go a game and see for yourself, or better still name a time were you saw us exposing a weak point in a team? A full strength Wigan side playing the way we do will beat any other SL side, but it's one tactic stop us playing that way and we are exposed.

Given that Wane is happy with the effort and performance levels, and does not look at the league table (according to recent articles), it is actually impossible for us not to be ok on his terms. It's all about performance, nt results, after all. :)

Those return dates seem optimistic especially Gildart.
He's been telling us all 3-4 weeks, Leigh is shorter than that.

I think SW may well be right. Anything near a full team and the wins will return. The opposition teams are not all that great, with the exception of Cas, so we should be ok when numbers return.

It's like a classic horse race the heavily backed favourite at the back Wigan in this case come September hits the front and we're at old Trafford I always look back to the 2012 team that should have won everything but just won the shield you never no Keep the Faith there's still a long way to go Wane will sort it

If Wane is right the rest of the league is rubbish.

Good teams and good coaches conjure up victories in adversity. The games he mentions were not lost or drawn because we are men down but because of stupid mistakes on the night made not just by the players but by Wane also (sub o'clock for a start).

When we get into winning positions despite the injuries the tactics should be there to close the game down. Not carrying on as if we had a full team out there and we are looking to thrash the opposition or turning points down as in penalties. A moment ago Hull were 8-0 up got a penalty and kicked it to take them to 10-0 up. Sensible play given they also have injuries and the kind of sensible play devoid from Wigan in recent weeks.

You can't blame the Wigan players for that either. Once it happened once Wane should have laid the law down, go for the two, but no, not Wane.
