People say that about us with McIllorum and although its true to an extent, when your bench hooker is on is usually around the time when your bench forwards are on and as such your generally a weaker side.
When MM is on for us its normally with Prescott + Feka, and we tend to suffer more during these periods of the games. |

If I were a Wigan fan, which I happily am not, I'd be worried out Soliola in defence and Puletua's go forward. Those two players will be key for us on saturday.

Exactly. You cant really blame it on one player i.e Micky Mac or Roby. Playing with Fielden + Coley will be a damn sight easier imo than with Prescott + Feka in MM's case. |

Cunnigham and Roby. Possibly Puletua as well but when only close to our line.

Slight misunderstanding on your part, there. You probably read that Saints won the game 36-0 with Cunningham on and lost it 22-6 with Cunningham off. That doesn't mean that Roby wasn't on the field at the same time as Cunningham. In fact I think he was on for all the 2nd half, when we scored quite a few points.(not just six). |

Roby, I get the feeling all eyes will be on Cunningham, which may give Roby a bit of room to exploit us

Agreed and we need to nullify him by working him hard in defence.

If i was a Wigan player i'd want to stay away from Soliola. Some of his tackles are lethal.

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

Got to say they may both be nearing & reaching the end respectively but I think Wellens and Cunningham will be their most dangerous players come Saturday.
Got to say their pack completely dominated Warrington in the first week of the playoffs by playing simple rugby in wet conditions. They do have the potential to control the game in that situation.
However if our forwards play like they can, no matter how good Graham, Soliola and Puletua have been we can nullify that threat and I think our back line is man for man far superior. Particularly with them missing first choice halves!
