Looking forward to the game next week?

As a bitter ( ) Leeds fan, I have to say that the game tonight doesn't really give an indication of either side

Leeds were awful tonight barring the first 25 minutes. Missed 25 tackles apparantly, lost penalty count (again) 13-7, and just didn't look interested at all in the 2nd half. Nobody other than Buderus and Burgess (and Peacock when he was on) looked interested. It seemed a bit disresfectful of McLennan to take off Buderus when he did (and Peacock) because Leeds could and should have had the game wrapped up after half an hour

The result is insignificant, Leeds will still finish top 2, the biggest problem to come of tonight for Leeds is Buderus' injury. If its a break then we are in trouble. If its not, then normal service will be resumed I imagine.

Wigan could easily turn us over next week. Should be a cracker if we're up for it too.

As for Leeds; the Buderus injury could a blessing in disguise for us. The guy was great tonight and made Leeds tick. Never nice seeing a player stretchered off, hope he gets better soon, but it could help us in the short run.

If we tip up like we have the last 5-6 weeks and Wigan play like they did tonight they'll butcher us!

Leeds discipline was a joke. The penalty count should have been even higher

They had plenty of options and Leeds looked rather like us against Wakey last week.

Hopefully we'll pick up our game and stay injury free this week.

Wigan look like the form team in the competition.

I fancy they could now finish fourth in the league.

Especially if they defeat Saints next week. Which i have to say looks eminently possible unless Saints play 100%.

I Felt that Wigan smashed Leeds in the middle and had the edge in pace outwide.
If they manage to hold Saints down the middle then i fear our pedestrian backs will get left for dead by the faster Wigan ones.

All depends on whether we want and need to win the game. If we play like we have recently they will smoke us. I just hope the players will recognise the significance of the game and raise themselves like they do when we play the big derby against Warrington.

After our last showing against Wigan, I've no doubt the players will be determined to put in a better performance.

Ultimately it depends what squad we can put out though. We can't afford anymore injuries.

I think both Saints & Leeds have been mediorcre more times than they have been on top form this season.

You get the feeling that both are keeping something in reserve for when the play offs come along.

First time in a a very long while that St Helens will have the more tense set of supporters going into the game!

I think you'll be smarting after Edinburgh though and will really come out firing at us.

I fancy you to edge a cracker.

Pah!Forget all the defeatists and doubters!SAINTS WILL MURDER `EM!

You heard it here first.

Hmmm. I want the drugs you are using please!

For us to murder the Pies next week it would take a total reversal in form. Now, that's not impossible for either side because Wigan are not known for their consistency and they might have peaked tonight (well, it's a hope worth holding on to for a little while!). But what are the chances of us coming out all guns blazing with our injuries and our present form (well, actually, most of season form!)?

It will be heart failure stuff on Friday ... or a total tonking!
