Quote: dubairl "1. Wigan on a winning streak
2. Just beat saints fairly easy
3. Saints in meltdown mode
4. Saints have a much better team/squad but because we are coached by an ape we are more aggressive
5. We are dirty and mean and we try to end careers of players.
6. RFL are always on our side giving us an easy run all the time.

Have i missed any thing?'"



7. We were full time when the others weren't.
8. We still rent our ground from a football team.
9. We do the Wigan Walk (though I noticed the seats emptying in the Saints stands early yesterday ... must have been pie eaters sat in the Saints end?)

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif



Wigan were the better team there was no doubt about that on Friday, however I would say that I thought in terms of Saints we were not at our best. I don't think we were at our worst either. I think we saved that up for the first half of the Cas game where they ripped us a new one.

But we were in the game with 40 minutes to go, but just did not have the team ethic to defend and unlike Cas who fell away in the second half, Wigan upped their game.

A loss by 6 points and we could have written it off as Wigan just being better on the day, but Saints were also culpable for some of the loss. To me Wigan played at an intensity that we just never got up to and that is something that whilst you don't need it every week in SL, but it is something you need to beat Wigan in a Saints Wigan derby.

good ones, seen a few more as well.

10. McIlorum gave Wellens rabies.
11. Silverwood was under pressure to not penalise Wigan so it makes up for the clear bias towards saints the previous 2 weeks.
12. Saints only get penalised at kick offs for being offside but Wigan was as well.
13. Apeman only is good because of Madge (completely different team and structure but hey)
14. Shirley (guessing O'loughlin) has super fast reactions and knew if he tackled their rookie high when he was slipping he would take him out of the game.
15. We are a 1 man team (no longer sam Tomkins but Sean O'loughlin)
16. Leeds distracted Saints.

I think from this point forth any St Helens fans should be known as a deluded one.

Weren't at your best? You were utter rubbish. Especially that second half, it was like watching Wigan under Brian Noble.

But that was only because we dragged you into a midfield battle and our pack absolutely smashed yours. Waney's tactics worked perfectly... Again. Not bad for an Ape eh?

23 - 20 - 4 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



They were never going to win without world class Kyle Amor.

They're certainly building this guy up. His name gets mentioned in the reverential tones reserved Down Under for the likes of Frank Pritchard. I'd almost forgotten he's spent most of his career at Wakefield.

I don't know, Amor looks a great buy to me. Wish we'd have got him.

Yeah aside from knocking them for maybe over hyping him a bit Amor has do e very well for them.

Saying that Soliola does well in most games for them but it doesn't stop him being knocked senseless everytime he faces Wigan.

I suppose we should at least give him a season to see if he fufils Eddie Hemmings's hopes and dreams.

Can't help but smile thinking that Saints hadn't lost all season and have now lost 2 on the bounce.

Strange result today as they had a good few youngsters out? I thought their youngsters were supposed to be the best in the business.

I'm glad this isn't the "canon copier super league" or we will have no chance with them being so good on A4

Ideal having that sort of quality over Easter as it should guarantee 2 victories icon_biggrin.gif

Our inferior 1-25 man squad racked up two wins and 117 points, won it's 5th Good Friday derby on the trot and gave some youngsters a chance to boot.

As the Saints fans say 'we've not got much quality but ape man gets us fired up'. Poor us having to go it on effort alone icon_biggrin.gif

It's been a lovely Easter.
