Wire - 28
Saints - 18

KNOB

I rest my case.

..... Pot. Kettle. Black.

Id say we have earned the right to be arrogant being the successful club in the world and all that wouldn't you


However, I dont think we are arrogant........just very proud of our glorious history.

There's a difference between being a good tackler and being a good defender. Lomax misses the odd one but he usually at the very least makes a nuisance of himself. Gaskell is quite prone to being caught out of position and simply not being there to make or miss a tackle.

FWIW, I don't think that Offside Monkey was being dismissive of Gaskell as a player or as a long term prospect - he's just made the perfectly valid point that, on recent evidence, Gaskell defending out wide against Warrington's backline is a cause for concern in this match.

Is this thread a predictions thread in regards to the scoreline or in regards to the timings that one of your players will be injured?

Biscuit legs Eastmond - 38 mins
Perry (if he makes the final 17) - 23 mins

Saints 32-30 Wire

Can't see it being a low scoring game and I imagine Saints have a lot to prove after last week so I'm sticking my neck out with a narrow Wire defeat.

I don't know whether he ball watches or what, but every so oftenwhen the man he's marking gets it, he's given them way too much space. It was first done by Welham, and then another since before Carmont.
He seems perfectly able to complete the tackle once he's got hold of them.

Take it you're assuming McVitie will come on after 36 minutes....

I presumed he would start at centre... and be getting hammered before half time, hence the "injury" coming along ha!

To be honest i will be cheering for Sts tonight ha!

Nice to see we get under the skin.

You fell for the troll but didn't do the research.

Hands up if two of your young players got MOTM against the touring Aussies when beating them.

COME ON YOU SAINTS, smash that horrible lot

i second that motion! UP THE SAINTS! wire can munch on my ass.
