Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

Probably confirms rumours about Faz not playing are false. Doubt he would be in the squad if he wasn't playing.

18th man. It's basically a straight pick between him and Tuson. Obviously the coaching staff feel Tuson deserves a chance this week. |

I'd leave out Marsh and Mellor - unless Faz has picked up a bad knock and really does need a rest/recovery time like Deacon. |

Games as big as Grand Finals define individuals and clubs. Remember, we only rent these journeys. In my time I had Pat Richard's shirt. Ellery Hanley had Sean O'Loughlin's jersey. Sam Tomkins is wearing Radders' number one jersey. Andy Coley is wearing Shaun Wayne's jersey. You have to make a mark in these shirts before you hand it down to someone else. Hand it back. So be aware for 80 minutes that you are not only playing, but you are also writing history and creating legacy. How many people actually write history - not many? A big stage demands big players…..INSPIRE YOUR TEAM MATES.

At the end of the day no matter how reliable the source a team named on Tuesday will always be provisional.

I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I am all out of bubblegum.
Don't you struggle. Don't you fight. Don't you worry, cause it's your turn tonight!

Yep good squad that. I was a little apprehensive about our chances to begin with, but as the weeks progressed I've felt more and more confident. Not that we'll necessarily win, but that more it'll be a very, very close game.

Just like last week, I'm quietly confident that we will win this one. I think the team spirit, mental toughness and sheer desire we showed last week will give us tremendous confidence going into this weeks match. Warrington are a formidable outfit, but so are we. They had it very easy last week against a lackluster Harlequins side. I accept they played some excellent rugby, but they're going to be pushed to the limits against us this week. I thought our discipline, both with and without the ball, was on the whole very good & it will need to be the same this week. If Brett Finch can just cause them some problems with his kicking game and our forwards can muscle up like they did last week, then I see no reason not to be confident we can take home the two points. |

I think the biggest plus point this week (assuming Finch plays and plays well) will be the improvement in our kicking game. All the good work we've been doing has been on the back of a very poor kicking game. But with the addition of a better kicking game and all the advantages that brings, it really should help us to go from strength to strength. |

That first kick from Finch could make or break this game for us.... if he puts in a cracking kick like Dobson did with his first touch then it will really lift the crowd, he needs to split FB and winger with his first kick and get good field position, I have no doubt the crowd would respond to this really well! Need to start as we mean to go on!

So a 40-20 it is then!  |
