Quote: Newton-Le-willows-Warrior "for me it will probably be off scratch. The only problem we seem to have when we play wire is that we cannot get on top of your pack. I said when the draw was made, with the packs potentially out there on the day I can't see that being the case, and aint you lot been playing king in the forwards when joel m is fit?

wigan could line up with a pack of fielden,leuluai,mossop,hoffman,hansen,o'loughlin with lima,prescott,hock,mcillorum/coley on the bench.

this could be the match of ages.'"


Won't go off scratch unless we hit bad form or injuries.

We are favs 5/2 & 9/4 and you are 7/2 & 10/3 to go off scratch we would have to be joint favs or very close.

Quote: lothlorian " both teams cannot defend and let in plenty of points'"



We have the 2nd best defence in the league,you currently have the best and we have let in 4 more points than you (we have played a game more than you too).

deary me,wire really can't defend.

Quote: Warrior-Lou "Probably because Saints actually ran you close in this game. compare that to them leaving early last week and its clear to see we dominated our game better than you could. not a 2011 standard Wire performance for me but I guess thats because you were up against tougher opposition than what you've been used to lately...'"

just to point out you also have played the so called easier opposition, each team in the league are more than capable of beating each other so to say we didn't play as well because it was of "tougher opposition" is stating the obvious but no disrespect to salford they are not a top 6 team but still manage to turn us over,as has happened to you, a champion side is one that can "grind" a win out againest tougher opposition as you did last season. To the poster who calls all our fans scum GROW UP every team has a idiot element in the fan base as does yours doesn't mean you are all scum

I know that, it came across as a bit of a bitter post, it wasn't intended like it, it just seems a bit of a coincidence does it not?

Quote: the original stevo "At least we play entertaining rugby league so do saints unlike yourselves who bore teams off the pitch with your constant lying on at the play the ball and O'Loughlin clamping the ball as the third man. YAWN!!!!!!!'"


Just had a Warrington fan of mine comment that "once a game is done I get bored" mainly, when the team is scoring points and beating someone, he gets bored of the game, so is that a minority view or are other fans bored of them scoring points by the bucketload?

I wouldn't say bored is the right word it just becomes a 'wind the opposition up' fest and laugh and joke at all the mistakes. Tight games are what makes it special though that's why the 2 teams i enjoy playing the most are Saints and Wigan usually tight high quality games.

Quote: SaintsFan "You [ican[/i be boring and successful, you know. I don't think anyone is suggesting they are mutually exclusive. Some of us just like our rugby entertaining, and games between Saints and Wire have been entertaining for a long time due to playing a similar style of open rugby.'"



So which game was more entertaining; the Good Friday match where both teams played decent qualty rugby league both in attack and defence or the sub standard rubbish that was served up at the Halliwell Jones that only those English numpties Eddie and Stevo (along with the more ill informed English rugby league fans) could rave about as some kind of 'benchmark'. The Aussie press would have dismissed it as no more than a 2nd rate 'amateur hour' where neither team was good enough defensively to stop points being walked in like they had gone out of fashion. The fact that the English cream themselves at this type of nonsense is exactly the reason we can't compete at International level. Entertaining? Yes, but only in the same way as reality tv is seen as 'more entertaining' than actual quality programming. Sad really, but no surprise.

No I don't get bored. I enjoy seeing us score tries for fun. Especially after the past few years, bar last year. I enjoyed yesterday, as one sided as it was.

I enjoy the close games don't get me wrong, Saints on Good Friday was immense, but I'm just glad we have the ability to put points on teams, whether its deserved or not deserved.

I enjoy either or as long as it's an entertaining game it can be a bit boring when its totally one sided like the win againest swinton, it's nice to see records being broken but not good for the opposition
