But they'd much sooner win the GF. Ask Leeds and Saints in 2007 and 2008 which they'd have preferred. |

At the end of the day it will get people into the club shop on Saturday Afternoon. It costs Wigan hardly anything to do it and the club will make a few quid from it as people will purchase merchandise from the shop as they queue.
Fair play to them, might take my two lads along. They're in their first proper season watching Wigan and having never seen the club win any kind of silverware they are buzzing that Wigan have won a trophy!
It's little things like that which will get them hooked for life* regardless of how crappy looking it may be.
* Similarly for me - I started watching Wigan in 1982 and was over the moon when we won the JPS Trophy in 83.

agreed, my lad is 11 and i cant wait to see him at the end of the game on Friday, the look on his face when he gets to have his picture taken with the silverware he saw his hero's holding up the night before will be priceless!! |

| Quote thepriestman85="thepriestman85"Again I don't get the negativity around the hub cap.
The CC is seen as a major achievement but yet it only takes a team 5 games to win it? The hub cap, if we win on Friday, has taken us 22 games to win. We've been to Leeds, Saints, Dire, Hull, Hudds & Hull KR and come away with points. It's the hardest piece of silverware to win IMO and anyone that's says it's pointless needs their heads checking.
I'm not saying the CC isn't an important trophy but the hub cap ranks along side it IMO.'"
Sure it does. 
Well done on winning it but it doesn't come close to that big Cup, only 5 games yet so many can't do it. |

It's harder to win the hub cap than CC that's a fact.
Win 22 games vs winning 5 is a clear indication of this.
The CC and hub cap are on par IMO and more recognition needs to be given 2 the hub cap. |

though with the challenge cup theres no second chance, though i do believe that the league leaders should be a bigger deal as it should reward the consistancy needed to perform well for a large majority of the games played

You can have an average season and win the CC
You can have an average season and end up winning the GF
You CAN NOT have an average season and win the Shield.
Its the hardest piece of silver to win in the game, end of.
I think the old championship trophy should be given to the champions. The current Super League trophy should be given to the team that wins the league.
