I get the feeling Saints are really finding their feet under Brown now and they'll be well up for this. Both sides are going to be missing a few players so no excuses on that score. I know we'll give it a real go and I think we're due a win against one of the top teams-
Wigan 26
Saints 16
1st Try- Thornley
Mom- McIlorum
Att-24,500

Think I'll wait on news re Micky Mac and Lockers before predicting. Losing either, or both of those then it would be very difficult for us, especially with us already missing a lot of experience. They both play, then I think we will do them.

Not very confident on this one, yes your forwards are decimated but your young forwards are doing a great job
But hey it's the derby!

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif |

| Could go either way this, we're due a win against a big team but then again Saints probably owe us one after last season. A win here would be really uplifting. I'll go:
Wigan 23
St Helens 22
Smith last second drop goal.  |

It'll be close I reckon. I'll go Wigan 18 Sts 16 and an attendance of about 22.5k (although I haven't seen any threads about how ticket sales are going).

| with Lockers and MM, I think we will pump them.
I may well be completely of the mark, but i am in a cocky confident mood

The game will be a sell out if Saints sell out their end. Only single seated tickets left in East Stand and a few in the West Stand. South Stand sold out last week! |

Only confident because there is no James Roby, struggled to put away Salford at home...
Wigan 28 - 10 St Helens

A lot depends on whether Lomax plays. He was also missing against Salford.
Although I wouldn't take too much from the Salford game, it was terrible conditions and we just seemed to play out the sets without playing any risky passes etc - our completion rate was 86% in the snow!
Either way, I think you will win. It should be very close though!
Even though we beat Wire, I think we let them back into the game too easily and it was our defence that saw out the result. Probably one of the best defensive displays I'll see from us this season.
I will go for: Wigan 22-18 Saints with a full house.

8 wins in our last 10 trips to your place is a record not to be sniffed at.
But I just don't see it becoming 9 wins in the last 11 as I fancy Wigan to win by 10. Hope I'm wrong though.
