Theres a rumour doing the rounds at work that Saints v Wigan will be the last game at KR anyway, but on Boxing Day rather than in the play offs. Ive no fact whatsoever to base this on, other than chinese whispers as stated, but you wouldnt put it past Saints to pull something like that for the financial benefits it would achieve. Only after they've sold out the latest 'last game at KR' in two weeks tho!

why wouldnt we pick a team that will only have won 1 play off game in 3 years?

I have no doubt that this is what will happen.

I hope Hull KR win as they will have had two tough away games and would face a 3rd. A real tough ask for them and their recent record against us isn't great.

But, I expect Wigan and Warrington to win. I've no doubt we'd select Warrington in that situation - great record against them and they are the lowest ranked team. Personally, I'd love us to play Wigan, just to give us a chance of ending the 'last ever derby win at KR' thing.
