Next week's top 4 games are quite pointless really. 2 games where the losers are rewarded with another chance is bizarre and stupid, but those are the rules and that's that.

As is said above, I'd have preferred to play Wigan. Catalans are still being under-rated, when in all fairness, they are equal to Saints. They won at Saints, and if it was'nt for a couple of bad reffing calls, they'd have won at home aswell. Catalans record against Warrington ranks alongside Wigan and Saints over the last few years. Saints, yet again, are peaking at the right time. They may not have a good a squad as in recent years, but as a club, they know how to get to a grand-final. Wigan are rightly favs, but are becoming vulnerable. Young Sam under a high ball for a start, and KR going 26 points clear at 1 stage last week is another.

The weather is set to change next week, which is good for Leeds. No coincidence that they have won grand-finals and world champions games during the colder months, their major problem is no McGuire forcing Sinfield to play out of position.

If a weather change is good for Leeds, it's bad for Warrington. Our play is just not suited to bad weather ( note the 10 minute downpour at Wembley). A major advantage about these comps is experience. We have not been to a premiership/ grand final since 1987, 25 years, and in that time, we've only won a handful of games when we have qualified for the play-offs.

This superleague season has been poor quality-wise, hopefully the play-offs will be far more exciting, with the above 5 teams, having,imo, just a good a chance of winning the GF as each other.

I'm going to tempt fate, i'm wearing all my 'unlucky' gear and see if i can get the wife to the game, she's been to two previous games before, both loses to Quins/Broncos at The Stoop, i'm also going to say We'll batter them and i'm going to bet on Wire to win, i'll also be bringing my pet Magpie(just the one) walking under plenty of ladders, smashing mirrors and walking over 3 grids.

WIRE to win, easily, by plenty

spot on ----

Not bothered who we play we need to be abe to beat everyone to win GF

Saints didnt impress last night either though extra man for a long time.

In my opinion the "best case scenario" is we win next week then Saints get knocked out by someone else in week two.

True ... Myler was offside & the linesman correctly informed Mr Ganson who was obliged to give the penalty which Sinfield kicked & we lost.

As a matter of interest has anyone seen a linesman give an offside decision since that day?

good point

Warrington will win. Full stop and underlined in bold lettering.

I can't believe there is a 4 page thread on here about playing Saints.
We have beaten all the top teams recently including an easy win away to Saints.
What's the fuss about ?

It's this silly attitude that helped Saints keep the Hoodooo over us

WE ARE BETTER THAN THEM.

This is probably the easiest team in the top 5

If you lot play how we all know you can, Saints will be lucky to keep it within 30. Give them the ball and they can score plenty, but they get their numbers wrong in defence so much it's embarrassing.
