If Wigan aren't meant to win this years GF I'd rather go out in the play-off's than lose in the final. Far less pain IMO losing then, than in a final.

| Quote: warrior1973 "It could possibly be a Saints Wigan final again. If Wigan win on Sunday, the final 4 could well be Warrington Wigan Saints and Leeds. Warrington would then have the option of picking between the Saints or Leeds for the semi final and i can honestly see them picking the Saints for that match. The last thing Warrington want to do is meet Wigan in the final and with what happened in the CC final between Wigan and Leeds, it would be a match just waiting to boil over. There'll be that much spite in the game and a brawl or 2 with players getting cited and sin bined that will weaken Wigan if they get to the final. In a one off game which the semis will be, the Saints can easily turn Warrington over and get into the final again and meet the winners of Leeds and Wigan. I think Warrington from winning the plastic shield will be expecting the get to the final, whereas with the Saints theres no preasure or expectation as your seasons been plagued with injuries and its an in between season until you get to your new stadium.'"
.....Is this clown suggesting Wire would choose to play Saints over Leeds, if they get the chance to do so at the clubcall stage??
Just because the 'mighty' Wigan struggled to see them off at Wembley, doesn't mean Wire should be worried about them....Let's face it, the last 3 Wire-Leeds matches have been relative walk-in-the-parks for the Wire.
This isn't disrespecting Leeds, but to suggest we would risk the Saints bogey returning rather than take on Leeds is a tad naive.

Agreed, no matter how many times it happens, it's still a killer.

That's true. In fact, you start to anticipate it!
I would be truly shocked if we got to the Grand Final this year and won it.

Well here we are lurking in the background ready to pounce.

| I think Leeds could do well in the play offs, they've got players back and fresh, there playing their best rugby of the season and have peaked at the right time! Huddersfield seem to know how to play Warrington, Saints V Wigan is usually a good close game, then there's hull and catalans who are no pushovers. We could be in for some very good games of rugby league!

From a Wire perspective, its purely down to the last 16 or 17 years...
We don't actually fear anybody, we just have a healthy respect for what Saints could do, if things fell their way on the day.
As the league table suggests, we are the best team in the league, but history has taught us that we can't take anything for granted, especially against Saints.....There have been that many twists in our recent encounters, that you just dread that fate would come and bite you on the backside one more time!!

| We are in pretty good shape to finally win a game against Wigan/Warrington we have the pack to hold our own.
It needs Gaskell-Lomax-Pyrce to be at the top of their game and a little bit of winning the 50/50 calls is long overdue to get to another extended consecutive appearance.
The script these last 5 years is whose going to beat Saints in the grand final, we might be short on experienced game breakers, but if they get their heads right then super league is definitely winnable.

In all honestly I don't think we will make the grand final this year and I'm the confident ive booked a week in the sun the Thursday before the final.
We defo got the forwards to match Wigan and Warrington if TP is back fit but we like strike power. For us to win or even make the final, both lomax and pryce need to up there game and start taking the line on and creating stuff.

We've lost one big game in the last 2 years and i cant really see it happening again. If Saints play their best and Wigan play their best theres only one winner and thats Wigan. Warrington arnt affraid of St Helens anymore, the whole of rugby league look at the Saints as a buliding team at the moment, in a few years im sure things will turn again and the glorious red V will be back up there!!
i see smoking crack is still the 'in' thing in wigan.
