| My head says the game will be won in the forwards
1. If Warrington match St Helens in the forwards then I believe that Warrington will win. I believe that Warrington have a better backline than Saints ( even when Saints are at full strength ).
The margin of the Warrington victory will depend upon Warringtons belief. If Warrington gain confidence to throw the ball around early in the game Warrington could win by 16-20 points. If not then a tight battle may ensue with Warrington winning by a couple of points.
In the game earlier this season Eastmond scored early and Warrington went into containing mode for the next 20 minutes instead of trying to force the game. If Warrington score first then they should grow in confidence.
2. If the Saints forwards get on top then their is no platform for the Warrington backs to perform. Result Saints win.
So my head says I really havent a clue who will win this one. This is the one for WArrington. I dont think that, with all the emotion that would be attached to the game, if we met again at Knowsley Rd in 2 weeks Warrington would win.
My heart says PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE a Warrington win by 20+ points. No nervous last 5 minutes, no last minute Saints drop goals, no 5,4,3,2, Oh S**t, Kieron Cunningham tries. Just for once tears of happiness, not despair

| Head says Warrington, we seem to be limping into games with half fit players.
However, the heart keeps telling me that our final season at KR has something extremely special in store...

It could be father christmas playing at 6 and humpty dumpty at 7, with Nelson Mandela at lock and you will still win.
We will not win at Knowsley Road.'"
Agreed.
You might as well put your reserves out and give away 20 points in the first few minutes and you will still win.

This is a joke right?
A Morley vs J Graham
M Monaghan vs K Cunningham
G Carvell vs B Hargreaves
L Anderson vs T Puletua
B Westwood vs J Wilkin
B Harrison vs C Flannery
So other than K Cunningham at 9 who exactly is bigger?

If that was our starting pack, our bench would also include Soliola, Fa'asavalu and Clough . . . .

Puletua is bigger than Anderson.

That looks like as evenly matched lineup as you can get to me ... I can't wait for tonight.
Head says Saints win, Heart says "Not another one of these ******* games AGAIN!".

And the Warrington bench will include P Wood, D Solomona and J Clarke.
With all due respect, win or lose I know which team i'd rather be starting with tonight.

The fact you can affort to leave out a 200k halfback if you decide and still fill a team with people playing in the right positions would indicate you have the stronger squad atm, good news for us is games arnt won on paper or on internet forums.
For me it too close to call but I'd like to think we can sneak it and get a much needed rest next week.
Saints by 2

Fit squads have a tendency to be stronger than weakened ones.
