Set of Six is all about the Grand Final this week as we look back at Wigans best win ever. Wonderful WiganWhat a year its been for Wigan. Yes, they are one of Super Leagues most successful sides, but their Grand Final win on Saturday was something special. Warriors coach Shaun Wane said it was their best ever and you have to agree with him. All sides suffer injuries but Wigan were decimated by them throughout the season - remember the team they had to field way back in April that was demolished 62-0 by Wakefield? Highlights from the 2016 Super League Grand Final Wane hailed their never-say-die attitude and it certainly told as they battled back from 6-2 down to clinch their fourth Super League title.Coming back strongerWarrington wont expect any sympathy as they had to add the Grand Final losers medals to their Challenge Cup ones after losing to Hull at Wembley in August. The Wolves certainly had their chances at Old Trafford but it was just not to be. However, Wolves coach Tony Smith believes the Wire will be stronger for the loss. Warringtons Ashton Sims dejection shows after the defeat Hopefully we can get smarter and use it, said Smith. If you listen to great sportsmen like Michael Jordan about how many games he lost - they are inspirational. They need to learn from tough defeats.We will get that win soon, I am pretty confident it will happen soon. There are some sad faces, long faces. But I always say if you cant handle losing a final, dont compete in one.Harry Sunderland awardWell done to Liam Farrell who was superb for Wigan and was handed the man-of-the-match award. It was presented by our very own Stevo, who won the award way back in 1973. Farrell was not keen to hog the limelight and immediately paid tribute to Dan Sarginson who pushed him all the way for the Harry Sunderland Trophy. Watch NOW TV Watch Sky Sports for just £6.99. No contract. I cant put it into words, there were so many players - the lad stood beside me (Sarginson) - I wouldnt like to see how many carries he took because he got us out of so much trouble.For him to leave the club like he is doing is something pretty special and I am really chuffed he has gone out the way he has.End of an era Stevo commentated on his final Super League game - watch his highlights here There was a fitting tribute to Stevo who commentated on his last game on Saturday. He started 26 years ago when it was just him and Eddie Hemmings sharing the microphone. These days the gantry has had to be re-enforced with the arrival of Super League heavyweights such as Barrie McDermott, Terry OConnor, Phil Clarke and Brian Carney.It was a great touch that towards the end of the game, one by one they took a step back until it was just Stevo and Eddie on comms. Stevo is one of lifes true gentlemen, a man passionate about the sport and always willing to share his knowledge and advice.He maintains he wont miss the game because he will keep watching wherever he can. Heres hoping there will be plenty of T-R-Y action every time he sits on the sidelines. Set of Six will certainly miss him and we wish him well on his retirement.Off on a high Josh Charnley poses for photos with the trophy and young fan Jack Johnson Josh Charnely has been a prolific try-scorer for Wigan over the years, with his Grand Final try his 165th try in 174 appearances for the club. He now he heads to rugby union side Sale Sharks, who will hope he can continue his form in their code.When I signed for Sale I said to Shaun Wane that I wanted to end with silverware, said Charnley. Ive grown up at this club and I have been around the boys day in, day out. Its like a family and its going to be an emotional night. Im looking forward to my next challenge.Sarginson is another player who is leaving, after signing for NRL club Gold Coast Titans. England coach Wayne Bennett names his England squad for the Four Nations on Monday and Sarginson is hoping he has done enough in Super League to catch the eye of the national coach. Dan Sarginson will now head to the NRL where he links up with the Titans I hope so, said Sarginson, who deputised at full-back for the injured Sam Tomkins in Wigans last three matches of the season.If I do, Im not sure where hell play me because Ive not played too much at centre and I might not have been too convincing at full-back. But I really hope I can get into the squad and, if I can, Ill do all I can for my country.On the matter of England it will be interesting to see what happens with captain Sean OLoughlin, who was in serious doubt for the Grand Final after suffering a calf injury in August. Sean OLoughlin poses with the Super League trophy The Wigan skipper made the cut with Wane insisting he was always going to call upon the influential forward, but Wigan will no doubt want OLoughlin to sit out the tournament in order to fully recover.Wane has been pretty vocal on the matter before, and will have sat down with the player and the coaching staff to discuss the implications of OLoughlin pushing himself even further.I love the international game, but the most important thing for me is this club, said Wane last month.Storm snub club seriesMelbourne Storm chief executive Dave Donaghy confirmed on Monday that the NRL Grand Final runners-up have declined their place in the World Club Series in order to give their players the best possible preparation for next season. According to reports in Australia, another 10 clubs have also turned down invitations from the RFL.It means that, unless Super League Grand Final runners-up Warrington and Challenge Cup winners Hull are prepared to travel to Australia, the format could revert to a one-off match between the two champions, Wigan and Cronulla. Storm finished the regular season top of the NRL Having treasured past visits to the UK in 2008, 2010 and 2013, we thoroughly value the concept of the World Club Challenge, Donaghy said. However, a regular NRL season is already incredibly taxing and, as a non-Sydney team, our players travel more than most.We have committed to playing two trial matches in Australia which we believe will serve as a better lead-in for the team ahead of next years opening round.We wish Cronulla all the best as the NRLs representative against the champion team of England, Wigan.The World Club Series is due to take place in England over the weekend of February 16-17.

It was the latest in a series of head injuries at the World Cup that raised questions about the sideline medical checks. Kramer continued playing for 14 minutes in the first half of the final at Maracana Stadium after taking a heavy blow to the face in a collision with Argentina defender Ezequiel Garay. He was eventually replaced in the 31st minute after slumping to the ground, and the German football federation said he had a suspected concussion. It didnt give any more details. Kramer appeared to be disorientated as he was helped off the field by medical staff. In his absence, Germany went on to beat Argentina 1-0 in extra time to lift the World Cup. "I cant remember very much but it doesnt matter now," he said, shrugging off the injury. "I have to send regards to my grandmother. She has a birthday today and I couldnt reach her." There were worrying head injuries for players earlier in the tournament. Argentina players Javier Mascherano and Pablo Zabaleta also played on in their teams semifinal against the Netherlands in Sao Paulo after hard knocks to the head. Mascherano appeared to be completely disorientated and fell to the ground after a clash of heads with a Dutch player. Both Mascheerano and Zabaleta started in the final.dddddddddddd Questions about FIFAs concussion protocol were initially raised in the group stage of the World Cup when Uruguay defender Alvaro Pereira refused to leave the field after being hit in the head by an England opponents knee. Pereira lay motionless for a short while and appeared to be briefly unconscious, but was still allowed to come back onto the field and continue playing. Uruguay team doctor Alberto Pan initially made hand signals for a substitution but then seemingly changed his mind after the clearly dizzy player furiously protested. The images provoked criticism from professional players union FIFPro, head injury specialists and others. Pereira later said the blow knocked him out and "was like the lights went out." "I was also not happy with that situation. I must confess that," said Michel DHooghe, a member of the FIFA executive board and chairman of its medical committee. The incidents have led to debate over whether FIFA should allow a temporary substitution so a player can get a head injury properly checked. Top-level rugby, for example, allows players who are suspected of having concussion to leave the field and be looked over by a doctor, and temporarily replaced with someone off the bench. FIFA medical chief DHooghe told The AP earlier in the tournament that he doesnt oppose the idea. ' ' '
