Yes so do I it's the number 14 bus. But in the last few years you've won nowt, confidence is misplaced, only luck will get you there and you've used it all up.

9 grand finals is a tremendous record but losing the last 5 is not a record i would want..saints on there day can beat anyone but like a previous poster said without long cunningham etc they are no longer a team to worry about.looking forward to it next week and just hope the play off games are exciting and not a damp squib like some have been..

Would Wire fans list who they would prefer in week 3 if they got club call 1-7. Obviously if you got club call then you could not pick Catalan, but I'll let that slide.

From a Saints point of view if we got club call (which is possible but unlikely)

1. Giants, 2. Wakey, 3. Hull, 4. Rhino's, 5. Wigan, 6. Wire, 7. Catalan

Too many ifs and buts to be able to take the question 100% seriously, but if we were to beat Saints convincingly next week and Saints were one of the 2 choices at clubcall, then it would be obvious to take on Saints again, because of the psychological advantage.

You would honestly prefer to play ourselves at your place ahead of Catalan?

In answer to the question though I would simply go off the league finishing position, ie Wakey, Hudds, Hull, Leeds/Catalan, Catalan/Leeds, Saints, Wigan.

I most certainly would, for a combination of reasons. Although Warrington beat Saints at Langtree park the reverse fixture showed that we can beat Wire also.

If we are not playing Catalans in the semi, then that means Catalan would more than likely be playing Wigan or Wire. Which would mean it could be possible to not have to play another derby if we got through to a final.

I think Catalan are a team that can turn it on and burn almost anyone on their day.

I've forgot the exact wins for Saints against wire since super League began , but it's
about 30 - 5 for Saints .
I just know we will turn you over again this Saturday , you just cannot get the
Saints monkey off your backs !
And yes , I would pick to play warrington in a club call !

....at the Saints fan doing an impression of a Liverpool fan, as he recalls the good old days!!

On a more relevant note, in the last four meetings, its 3-1 to Wire, and in the last 4 seasons, it presently stands Wire 3 trophies, Saints fook all, so if we are trying to indulge in some sort of psychological claptrap, then have that one!!...

Yes, Saints once had a top class team, which was often too good and powerful for Wire, but your present side is an absolute shadow of that side, so your statisitics are totally irrelevent to this Saturday.

How does it continue when it's gone?

Is that when you beat Saints at the HJ this season !

By this logic, I assume that when we beat Saints at Wilderspool in 2001, you considered that a 'hoodoo' and anticipated a collapse of the mighty Saints team and a Wire grand final victory?

Edit - to get on topic, I'm glad we have Saints. Obviously you can't write them off, same as anyone else in the top 5, but of those five teams Saints is the team I am happiest playing at the moment. I'd order the best to worst teams to choose from as:

1. Wakefield, 2. Hull FC, 3. Huddersfield, 4. Saints, 5. Catalans, 6. Wigan, 7. Leeds

Wigan and Leeds are close at the top two I would least like to play, but Leeds edge it for me - they were much closer to us at Wembley than Wigan were a few weeks ago.
