| I think all the pressure is on wigan in the semi, all year it's been nailed on Wigan wire final, fully deserved tbf, we've just creeped under the radar getting results and strung a run of wins together at the right time! They do step up to the line when the backs are against the wall but they may feel the pressure more than saints, cant see anything but a wire win tonight, I'm still waiting for 'wire can't keep putting cricket scores on teams it's got to catch up with them soon' . Saints/Wire would be great, both play good attractive rugby and I think our half backs are finally playing well enough together to turn pressure into points.

No disrespect to Wigan, they are a very efficient and well drilled team. However, as has been proven twice this season, and in games prior to 2011, when we get on top of Wigan's forwards they never seem to conjure up a plan B against us. I appreciate they knocked us out the cup ruthlessly but that day we simply weren't on form in the initial stages of the match.
Might seem bizarre me saying this, but I still don't think we're very good at controlling Saints go forward despite winning our previous two encounters. There are still things we need to smarten up on if we are to continue winning games against you.'"
I totally agree if you take wigans forwards away who do they have? Sam tomkins? You just carnt depend on one player like wigan do they dont have the pace to keep up with saints and wires back especially monaghan and roby who have ripped them apart wigan are just a physical side who try to bully you and you take sam tomkins out of that team and they carnt keep up with saints and warrington and to be fair tomkins hasnt played well Against us or saints the last time we played and to me if he plays bad wigan play bad

| I fear Saints far more than I fear Wigan. The last fifteen years have seen to that.

really......i knew the club had made the wrong choice. Tony Smith claimed not to have anything to do with the club call, but he of all people should have known the big game experience that Leeds would bring and he made a huge error in not choosing a tired Wigan on a 5 day turnaround. I think his decision has not only cost warrington a GF place but has probably given wigan a trip there in the process.

It's a stupid concept. No coach will ever pick a higher ranked team.

On current form your Chairman/Coach should have NOT picked Leeds. Regardless of final league positions. The clubcall leaves you on a hiding to nothing anyway but to pick the in form team (compared to Wigan) was suicide - and it bit you on the aris big time. On current form you stood a far better chance of beating Wigan and that is fact. There would have been a contest for 40-50 mins but that intensity last night would have been a step to far for Wigan.
You're Chairman got it wrong...... Personally I LMAO when he said "Leeds".

| Quote: Wire_91 "id love it to be a wire v saints final every game we have against them is a close game and on a big stage i would like to see what would happen, would we crumble under the pressure of the grand final saints have all the experience in the world in that team for finals i think we have morley i know we have won the challenge cups but IMO the GF is a bigger stage, its the end of the season players will be tired and they have to perform i hope it is a wire saints final both are hungry for it i think it would be an awsome game for the supporters, im confident we can go out tonight and put 40 on leeds and i can see saints turning wigan over as we have seen by warrington and by saints that if your line speed is fast and you get into there faces wigan are no good under that type of pressure because they have never had it before and there big fowards cannot hanlde the pace of saints and wires ruck area thats were i think wigan are no good, yes there a big physical team and they will make yards but if your in there faces and your ruck speed is there wigan are just as good as anyone else and its a shame that we have only just saw how wigan are under that pressure now and not at the start of the season COME ON THE WIRE!!'"
Just didnt work out like that did

| Shame this couldn't happen. There is a good chance of this happening at some point, maybe next year. A Wire Vs Saints cup final would be good.
