Not all the time they don't

I didn’t know it was an either or. Saints can have the LLS and the GF thanks

I said on here weeks ago that Leeds were the dark horses. Great team when at full strength.

I would chuck Salford into the mix aswell,playing very well at the min.

I bet you won't put money on them?

I may have a look nearer to the time, obviously it wouldn't be a big amount, can't see past Saints or Wigan. However a lot can change in terms of teams losing players. We lost Welsby and Lomax or Wigan lost Field and French and that gives another team a huge chance for example.

Leeds aren't immune to injuries. Smith, Thompson and Newman all left field in KR game, with the former 2 going to hospital and Newman with a hamstring problem.

Will be interesting to see what happens with the semi-final scheduling. If Saints finish top that means we should be playing our home SF on Friday 16th September however that would mean Wigan (if they finish 2nd) playing their home SF at 12:30 the next day. However that's not possible as Wigan Athletic are at home that day.

Saints will resist swapping (and rightly so) as the team finishing top should get the extra days rest (as per previously) so another option would be Wigan forced to play elsewhere.

Very interested to see what happens.

Bilko just confirmed the grand final winners have had a days less rest in each year since 2013 bar one, so it’s not the supposed hard luck story Saints fans are bulling up.

They’ll be moaning about injuries next…

As hard as it might be to not do it, painting Saints as the villains isn't right. This have every right to say no to moving their game to accommodate a football match.

Why should they move from a Friday 8pm slot, because Latics are at home. It's wrong and a backwards approach from Saints, Us or RL to move even an inch to accommodate it.
