First kick should be a bomb for Sam with Meli steamrollering in.

Or a grubber.

He did not like it in the exiles match, obviously we need to keep the tackle low and league but a bit of a hit on the first one, then maybe sia on the next one and he'll get the message.

because sam never gets tackled hard slammed or even knocked out look back to abliet last season or the one before, one thing sam isn't and thats scared of being tackled. but yeah sometimes he can be dodgey under a highball. larne patrick is a freak with that step would of happend to any fullback in the league just like sam has stepped the majority in the league. personally i think you will kick to find touch to stop any broken field play, but if your in the 20 no doubt it will go high.

Chinny reckon.

Less head high's????

Although it looks like Hock is going to take on that responsibility for him.

Wane is in the press (Again) today telling them how Hock's had to sit out training this week. Not because he has an entirely fabricated injury like the rest of them, but because he was worried he'd injure his own team mates, because he's so fired up for the derby.

The man is a complete liability. First bad tackle he's invovled with (There will be plenty as he cannot tackle), we should make a major issue out of and get him sent off.

Maybe sia still struggling with his knee and surprised to see Magennis get the nod.

Not heard that in ages!

I don't care about Wigan's injuries, they could have their best team or their u20's playing and I'd still be looking for us to put in a big performance. This is a derby, they beat us last Good Friday and whilst we got revenge when it mattered in the Play Offs, it still dented my pride and I'm sure the players felt the same. Let's not forget they also beat us in the last game at KR, let's not let them beat us in the 1st game at Langtree Park. Big performance required from Saints and we should go at it full tilt. No mercy, COYS!!

Hmm "so fired up". Is that what it's called these days? Was "high as a kite" when I was a lad. Once a coke head, always a coke head.

Lets hope hock has one of his off days as he can be devastating when on form.

When he's good, he's very good but when he's bad he's absolute crap.
