warrington won a trophy with a considerably inferior squad to what we have now

It's only superleague at the end of the day and every club has at least a few average players in it.

Saints are 2nd favourites for both trophies and rightfully so. If Eastmond and Pryce click i reckon you'll win something. The pack looks good to me especially if Soliola is played in the 2nd row and Wheeler can nail that centre spot. Add in the option of putting Lomax in at fullback/wing if needs be and you'll not be far off.

Hmmmm. Not quite sure if your logic is sound.
So last year they won a trophy and we didn't which might imply that they won that with an inferior squad to to our squad of last season.

But are you saying that our squad this year is stronger than our squad for last year (?)
Or are you just saying that it doesn't matter how strong your squad is (this or last season) in order for a team to win a trophy?

How times change ..... It wasn't that long ago you lot bought Sculthorpe off us

and turned him into the joint best 13 in the league

Joint best? Jason Smith was good but not quite that good.

I think he meant Michael Wainright

no thinking more rob roberts

Of the clan Mc Roberts, ahh yes, gotya !

We now have the monkey off our backs having won a long overdue trophy. The next obstacle is to beat saints at knowsley road and put an end to the nightmare run of defeats stretching back many years! I feel we are now strong enough to do this and we could well win at your place this season. We are now strong all over the park and fear no one in either the challenge cup od SL competitions,just as saints have feared no one for many years. Re signing players. If you have the money you sign them,if you don't you can't,simple as that. I expect that if we do have success fans from other clubs will say we have bought it but we are doing nothing that saints haven't done in the past or won't do in the future,just like many other clubs. Providing you stay within the cap no one else has any grounds for complaint.

I agree with that however I think our pack is significantly stronger than your's and if Eastmond stays fit I think we're the team to beat for second.

I will be honest,and i am not being arrogant here, when Morley and Carvell are in form you will struggle to find a better prop forward pairing in the league!

Not going for first then!!!!!!!!
