I'm not sure. The whole Wigan winning the Derby there thing might get under their skin. Plus they're the easier opponent (forgetting the hoodoo for a second) ad it sets them up for a peach of a final with the mighty Wire (A final i am sure that they will be sure of sure victory) or they get a rematch with leeds after taking out the two biggest stumbling blocks and they can attone for being god awful the past three times they tried.

Potter will pick the lowest placed side and if us and Wigan both win, then it will be us.

Dont care as long as we beat Hudds

I expect them to pick the lowest ranked side.

It better be us.

Saints have started selling tickets for the semi final (obviously without naming any competition) for FRIDAY night. Rhinos site have them playing Saturday evening. Come 1.15pm Sunday we will find out where and when we are playing (assuming that we havent had our fate confirmed Saturday night!)

everyteam that has the clubcall will always pick the lowest placed team to come through as leeds did last year. the trend has been set.

If HKR beat Wigan and Wire beat Hudds we will pick HKR,without a shadow of a doubt.

I hope you do, i really wanted saints in the 1st final of the year challenge cup,
so now i will settle for saints in the other final of the year instead.

If that continues then it might as well be scrapped. I quite like the idea but if no team has the gonads to try and use it to their advantage then.....

Can you image though if us and Hull KR get through? Saints pick Hull KR and get knocked out. Given our record against them the fans will be giving the bosses stick for that for years!

I love it when wire fans starting shouting their mouths off, u have to beat shudds yet and that aint gonna be easy,you won the challenge cup fair and square but u peaked that day its all down hill now, evidenced by the performance against Saints.

In terms of your record v the rhinos it is less than impressive in super league it begars believe you are so confident the final will be between two of saints,wigan or wire, you need to temper your arrogance as neither wire nor wigan are clear certainties for the grand final as yet, how many games did you beat the rhinos in during super league A BIG FAT ZERO home or away get real.

PS Enjoy next season as it will probably be Mr Smiths last he very rarely stays at a club longer than three years, Th rihins were the exception with 4 years, that will be the tes of how good the squad is when you get an average coach in afterwards

Rubbish. Picking Catalans last year was a no-brainer because it paired Saints up with Wigan. We'd have been mad not to make them play each other. Catalans gave us a right run for our money and we couldn't wait for the hooter at the end.
I wouldn't like to have to pick this year if Wigan and Wire get through. If it was HKR and Hudds I'd pick Hudds purely for the fact it's a home tie with little away support. I wouldn't fancy HKR bringing their 100,000 away support! It's a difficult choice for Saints and if they get beat in the game their supporters are just going to say 'we should have picked so and so'. I reckon if Saints could pick us they would do!

Oh shut up you tart.

It's a "no brainer " they'll go for the "easy tie " and we'll turn them over at their place for the 1st time since god knows when.
