Quote: St pete "Id go with that.


I just don't think we are creative enough to beat them. We can build pressure when the pack gets on top but weve no creative spark to open up teams when it's tight.

I think we will lose but if we had fully fit Luke Walsh Id be very confident.'"


If we deal with them putting pressure on Wilkin when he's kicking better than we did at the Pie Dome, we'll win.

Quote: theblondebomber "Burns looks to be carrying a knock'"


I'd say he was carrying several. He's so physical and so tough that serious injuries don't bother him. He'd rather run off a knock a different player would roll around the floor and call for a stretcher with.

Wilkin isn't a ball handling scrum half. But he can do a job. The big question is whether Saints will return to their tactic of kicking early which paid big dividends early this year and at the back end of last. This is where Wilkin proved really strong.

Well up for this one tonight.

They are dangerous and we need to restrict their space when they are returning our kicks. Our defence held up well last week and was a good test of how Wigan will shape up.

I just hope we don't let Williams run the show. He's a fantastic player and we need to eliminate his time on the ball. He likes to throw a dummy and run at the line too so we need to be making contact with him every time he's on the ball.

Didn't see the Salford game but they definitely returned to this tactic at Newcastle v Warrington. Wilkin kicked early in the first 2/3 sets before Roby went off and we lost our way. Even second half getting back into it, we kicked early. Expect to see this a lot.

Wigan is all about defending the edges. If your outside three make the right decisions, Wigan become a side that can only hurt you on attacking kicks on the last. If that happens, I'd expect Saints to murder them up the middle and grind it out. If we don't defend well enough though, it could be a cakewalk should they get a couple of scores up early.

At the end of the day, put Walsh and the back rowers in this side and we beat Wigan pretty much every time. Put a performance in, give our all and whatever happens, we'll see you in Sept/Oct. Good luck to you.

Mugwump mocking mental illness for a second time - "You are mentally ill and I can't indulge your madness any more" Utter disgusting abusive remark from a keyboard warrior:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_44308.gif

Defo agree that defending on the edges is very important agsinst Wigan. I worry they will exploit Turner who is pretty poor in his decision making when giving something to think about.

On the other side, if we get the ball to Turner he could rip them to shreds with the ball.
