I hope its a 40 - 40 draw with plenty of biff....

Seriously, a Leeds win is what any Saints fan should want because a) Its Wigan and b) we'd get the club call.

Wire struggle to back up the week after they play us so its feasable they could have their pockets pinched by either Shudds or KR and i'd rather have the choice based upon how they fair in week 2 who we play.

Although Wigan and Leeds wasn't a derby game it was just as intense and as tiring. The goons home crowd will be baying for penalties all night. Just hope the ref can stop Tomkins clamping. Wigan have lost more at home than away this season. If HKR play their cards right and keep cool heads they have an excellent chance of turning the goons over.

I agree. Add to this their loss of Deacon, so the reshuffling has had to happen with maybe a not very fit Amos at fullback, and Wigan are not the certs they looked like prior to the Leeds game (which I have to say was a very good game to watch).

According to the Wigan coach they have been playing for the last few weeks with between 7 - 10 first team players missing although they are getting some back now. I can't think of a game were they have had that many 1st teamers missing. In fact some of their first teamers have been playing in the under 20's for weeks.

He's just trying to cover up the cracks and smooth their way to losing tonight! They've had more injuries than Wire but nothing like the problems we have had.

I guess they just couldn't be bothered to put their minds to it then
