if we finish top we can pick catalans at home.
we owe them big time

who says sts and udds are going to finish 3 and 4 ???

As much as I'd like to see the dragnons finish above the other contenders, look into the Saints recoveries coming back into the side. They will finish a strong 3rd.

As for the "entertainers title", Eddie is a Wires fans right? Back in the day he used to give that title to Wigan, well of course he had to. It doesn't really mean anything but its a 20 year old tradition that most people are comfortable with, even Clarkey respects that in his commentary. Rugby league is the best entertaining team sport bar none so lets keep to these traditions.
But lets be fair, is there a better site than Georgie in full flight or Sam stepping away from a dozen tackles? The Wires have many things but we have the top two athletes in the league

Yes Matt King in full flight with his afro blowing in the wind... and we are called the entertainers because we have easily scored the most tries.

If we are happy with the entertainers label (going to the wires) can we create a News of the World Award and give it to Leeds for being the dirtiest cheatin team in SL?

No! Because the coaches pick only comes round in week 3, not week 1. If we finish top we play 4th regardless. 2nd plays 3rd! I'll say it again. Catalans at Home, with no away crowd, and a flat atmosphere is the match I'd like to avoid. I'd rather play them away! Anyone else, its the play offs ffs, bring them on!

its uncanny how Wigan will end up playing its bogey team again! Saying that, if the boys think that this is a must win match they should breeze it

I genuinely think we are a better side than Hudds (I know the results don't suggest so, but one of those games we had 8/9 players out - yes another Saints fan whinging about injuries!).

If Saints can get Pryce/Perry/Clough/Wheeler back in the side come the play-offs, we'll be a dangerous team for anybody to face.

i would rather play hudds than st helens.

2nd could well be a blessing in disguise to whoever ends up there.

ooops sorry, i thought i was on the Wigan board....

They have the beating of us this year. I'd rather finish first then give the bleeding club call to Wire.

You can't pass the club call on.

If you finish first and win you're first round game you have to make the call.

I think he meant "than" rather then "then"?

Catalans can still have a big say in both the League and the Play Offs. They have proved this year to be perfectly capable of some upsets, their charging up the League and regardless of the Dire v Wigan league match, Dire still have to play them away. Given the right circumstances and we had to pick a semi final team, I would steer away from Catalans, hopefully that will mean we can turn Stains over again in the final.

If we stay focussed and concentrate on doing the best we possibly can in both attack and defence I would let the other teams worry about us rather than the other way round.
