Wire beware.
It is interesting we have lost 3 of our last 7 games. A dip in form ready to have a big onslaught in to the play off's.
Meanwhile wire are peaking for wembley'"
You're assuming we will get through the playoffs.
It might be Wigan v Saints in the Grand Final.
You will have to deal with their greater experience in the cauldron of Old Trafford as they have probably played more games there than at their new home ground.

| Wee Tam back for the play offs is a must to sort the defence out .
I think it is only after the last few weeks that a lot of people now realise how good Wee Tam is and what a miss he will be next season .

| Also Fielden has been out for the best part of 2 years. He will be way off the pace and there is no way that I can see him being able to play to the higher standards of play off matches.'" ]
Thats a real worry then because at the moment Lima, Prescott and Mossop look second rate

| Ok so we didn't beat Wire but we are still 1 point clear. For some reason the 'experts' seem to think Warrington are guarenteed to win their 3 remaining games, however, London away the week before the CC final is not going to be easy especially as London have hit some form and Hudds at home the week after the CC final is not easy again Hudds have hit some form. They also play Widnes away last game which as a derby and just before the playoffs anything can happen. Our fixtures are not easy either but with 10 days rest to Salford, then a week off till Hull KR, hopefully some key players back fit, think we can finish in style ready for the play offs by smashing Stains at home again. In a nutshell I would prefer to have our finish than Wires, having said that they are playing well.

| As annoyed as I was Saturday I certainly won't rule us out of anything just yet. We've hit a rough patch for sure but there's time to bounce back. I don't think the lads are tired at all, they're just not in the best of form and some are lacking match sharpness.
We need our best 17 out on the field each week now to build momentum and we can add in Richards and Leuluai as and when they're right.
In reality we may get more out of that defeat on Saturdau then a win could bring. It'll hopefully wake a few lads up and get them back to working hard and put some fire in their bellies.

| i'm of the opposite opinion. with and without the ball on saturday i think we looked very jaded even before they pulled away to 18-6 ahead.
of course, we had a lot of tackling to do through our own doing at times and defence tires you out blah blah i know, but i was thinking even after ten minutes or so "jeez we look knackered already"!
the CC Final break will help, but lets not forget there are still teams like Catalans & Saints etc who will also benefit from the break.
we just need some magic in a big game, which i beleive all 3 of our remaining games are in the regular rounds to put some fizz back into the players. if we can pick up a bit of morale going into the playoffs anythign can happen but i must admit i am worried about the mantal and physical pressure that the players are put under and without a key player such as tommy of late the team has struggled.
all we can do, like every teams' fans, is hope for the best and if it ends up in failure it is after all only a game.

Going off your track record of 'blowing teams off the park' only to blow it in the playoffs, think you need to tread very carefully, as Leeds and Hudds fans could quite easily remind you of!

Wire bottlers is fact, never been to a GF!
You are looking into the future Mystic Meg!
Why am I seeing a different Wire? Winning a CC (even though you haven't yet and in your last knock out game against Leeds they beat you when you BOTTLED it in last years playoffs!), we won it last year. You looked this good last year in the weekly rounds when you won the LLS, did you reach the GF? NO! Have you done this year yet? NO! You MIGHT win both but, be careful, you could look very foolish in the end!!

Warrington led 16-2 in Saturday's Grand Final, but their joy was short-lived as Wigan roared back to win the Super League title and extend the Wire's 58-year wait to be champions:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_10174.png |

| If we can get a big win against Stains at a full DW and lift the dinner plate, Saturday's game will be forgotten about. The team need to focus solely on that now. It's not the biggest accolade in the game but clinching top would be a good confidence boost before the playoffs.
Keep the faith ![Smile icon_smile.gif](images/smilies//icon_smile.gif)
