Lets get something straight here, SOME Warrington fans are full of themselves just like SOME of our fans are and SOME fans of all other clubs fans are, especially so when talking to opposition fans and even more so when writing on RL message boards. Alot of it is down to bravado and some down to the misinterpretation of confidence.

It really really winds me up when some fans of our opponents say we are all arrogant and cocky, it is a really irksome kind of generalisation and I am beginning to find it equally as annoying when I read Saints fans doing the thing.

I'd prefer Long and Jack Black to play, as we all know what both special players they are and can come up with special plays especially against us! It would of been a great test for us help to gauge how far we have come under Tony Smith against the current league leaders strongest line-up. However, still lots of talent on show, I'm sure Pryce will step-up as he tends to play well against us and I'm sure Saints will have the necessary personnel up for the challenge. Always great atmosphere, great matches, looking forward to this.

Aye - the swines flu.

Im a wire fan i want us to win every match, when some one asks me who is going to win i say Wire every time without fail

The truth is though saints will probably win, im not a keyboard warrior or arrogant ,the thing i said when i started this thread i did in part jest part hope but not at all arrogance.

Some people are arrogant but i'd take that any day over some self righteous muppet with no sense of humour

how many times have we prepared for the derby at Warrington and said 'this is their best chance yet'. their chances seem to get stronger every time, and this fixture is no different, it really is their strongest chance yet. Obomber could spoil their enjoyment more than anything

Talk this end is Hicks, Briers, Morley out as well as Rauhihi and Higham who are a bit longer term. Well Rauhihi's been out for a few, dont know when he's due back.
I was pretty confident to be honest but im not so sure now.
Ive gotta go Wire by 8 though, blasphemy otherwise

if briers and more so morley are out i think we will have a great chance, morley has been in great form this season and i wasn't looking forward to our weakened pack playing against him.

I am keeking myself personally but if the mentioned 3 are out for wire we have a good chance.

Hope you are right, however it is on the Warrington Guardian website, so it isn;t just some fans on the Wire board starting this one...

I don't the rumours are pretty strong and I have heard it off people who don't even go on here, the only thing I can think is all 3 three got injured after the squad was put out.

You don't believe all you read in the papers do you?

I think it is just a bit of mind games to be honest. I expect them to play and so will the Saints team and they will have prepared for them playing.

I never believe anything about who is and who is not playing in any game until the ref's whistle goes to start the game and I can see for myself who is and who is not playing.

Coaches play games.
