| I see no reason too fear Warrington. It's just unlikely that we can play the type of game we have all season and win twice, in a one off it may work and we may grind them down, which if it is wet weather may help.

| I don't think there's any doubt that we're underdogs. I'd rather be playing Warrington than Wigan, though. That's not to say that I think Wigan are better than them, but rather that we struggle with Wigan's approach to the game in a way that we don't seem to with Warrington. Also, if Westwood is out then that does weaken them. If I could cherry pick any players from around the league to play for Saints I reckon he'd be in my top three.
I'm not expecting us to win, but you never know.

I don't think we are favourites, but neither do I think Warrington are an impossible challenge. I think Warrington leave more holes in defense than Wigan do, they make up for this with being able to play more open attacking rugby, but in the crunch games you can see that being used less in favour of more percentage play. No one wants to throw the interception pass that get's you knocked out of the playoffs.
Saints can't really get more conservative in our play as we have been playing playoff style rugby since Easter. Minimal offloads, tight defense. We just need a bit of rain and then who knows.

| I dont think you have a better chance against us we have not really hit top gear this season and in great form at the moment whereas wigan are there for the taking really gone off the boil and have not been able to rest / rotate the squad as we have.
I think that we have developed a lot and the poor play off performances are a thing of the past the players have the big game experience now with the cc cup games and a belief that they r good enough to go all the way.
For you guys to win you would need to dominate our pack which is difficult and i dont believe that yours can do it (no disrespect ) They will be fresh and pumped up for this game and I can only see one outcome. However i think it will be a close game and wouldd love to see a briers dg seal it in the final minutes with a longesq celebration.
Anyway heres hoping for the kind of playoffs that the game needs and good luck to your guys

| Ben Westwood is very unhappy at being runner up in a handsome male contest.
There were only two entries;
Him and Gareth Hock

| We've sold over 2,000 tickets for this already, so should be a belting atmosphere as always in that away end!

Bloody hell, get over it! Nice to see that the song has had the desired effect and you are still trying to justify a response 6 months after.

| Shenton is a doubt for us but apart from that we have a full squad to pick from.
