| If we concede on at the weekend, I'm walking out. No matter if we're 50-0 up at that point, if it happens again I'm off.
If I was Potter I would have had them practicising blocking patterns and kick returns all week.

11659.jpg Phil Bentham scoured the video tape and despite conclusive evidence that Smith was a half yard offside, he allowed the try to stand.

Saints are a big-game team with bags of big-game experience. They have won five Challenge Cups from six final appearances in the Super League era and have won five Grand Finals in that time too.
Add two World Club Championships to that and you have the roll-call of the best rugby league team this country has produced in the modern-era - and it's a phenomenal record.

| I doubt very much that you will actually walk out, especially if we are unloading on the Whinos and it's 50-0 when they score. You do remember the 70-0
It could be from a perfectly executed grubber that is almost indefendable. Some kicks are almost impossible to defend if they are weighted and placed to pefection. No way the defender can always turn around in time when the attacker has the jump on them.

Yeah! and give those wide receivers some catching practice whilst we're at it

| I don't know about anyone else, but I'm now hoping Leeds score directly from the first kick off and then we go on to rack up 50 points in true champagne style.

But if you were Potter we'd be bottom of the league and still looking for our 1st win of the season.

39110_1363272058.jpg Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go

Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

| With players like Gardner and Meli it's likely to happen. I have been impressed with young Foster since his poor game at Salford though.

| Our kicking in the opponent's 20m hasn't been brilliant this year.
That said, is Potter seriously considering playing Meli and Gardner on the same flank? Or will Gidley come in and Flannery remain the other centre?

I'd rather see Meli at centre than Flannery.
He pretty much dominated King last week, who's only real break came against Flannery. Flannery's lateral defence is not great and can be exposed more in the centre's than it is further infield.
Gidley and Meli would be my choice.

Hugely preferable to them both being on separate flanks fielding kicks, wouldn't you agree?

Not really. Surely their vulnerability under the high ball would then be compensated by a good centre? If you pair them up you're only doubling the size of the target.
Foster will have an easy afternoon.

| I doubt that Foster will be playing as Lomax is back.

It won't double the target at all, if anything it will half the target as we will only have Gardner on the wing, with Foster on the other. Leeds will kick to the corner to the winger, Meli won't be on the wing so its unlikely he will be under any kicks. Meli has been very good when put in the centres, and i'd stick with it. If he continues to impress there, i'd stick with it next season also, and keep Soliola in the pack.

I'd pick Foster regardless. Foster has proven that he is capable when under some pressure, in a couple of big games away from home, theres no reason to drop him IMO.
