| I dont know who will win but I do know that the semis are going to be brilliant. Theres a good chance of Leeds vs Huddersfield and Wigan/Wire vs Saints that would be pretty impressive and is a good chance should the "favourites" win all games.
I think going in as "underdogs" actually makes me more relaxed theres slightly less pressure as the team arent expected to win and that should bring out their better side. The last couple times we have met Wire in the cup we have been the favourites that could play a big part in the teams mentality. At the end of the day we don't know until the came finishes at about 6pm on Saturday.
I'll be happy as long as its a fair match and the team who plays best wins and not the team that gets lucky from the referee seeing/missing things.

Very true, but you maybe have should put when the SL era started as thats when most clubs started getting some decent cash in, and started to become professionally run outfits, before that it was fairly easy for certain clubs to win, in the amateur era as I ike to call it.

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

To the best of my knowledge RL went pro in 1895... Please correct me if i'm wrong...
And how many playoff games have Wolfs won in the what you like to call profesional era?
Get back under your stone

39110_1363272058.jpg 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

| I am in France and crapping my pants. I would be much more relaxed knowing I could go to the game and the atmosphere could take the nerves away. On saturday it will be just me, my dad, a few mates who are union fans, and a TV in a bar. Oh poo.

The first full time professional club was Leeds. By the time Wigan joined them in 1991 we had already won 4 of our 8 in a row.

Wigan have 4 point start in some places and are 5/4 to win.
We are best price of 4/5

Correct. We've been fully professional since 1872 when we were founded and have done nothing but buy overseas players on big wages ever since. We made history in 1906 when we broke the salary cap some 90 years before it was invented. We have never done anything positive for the game and if it wasn't for us being the richest team in the World we wouldn't have won anything.

| Quote: Conroy "Correct. We've been fully professional since 1872 when we were founded and have done nothing but buy overseas players on big wages and poach local players ever since. We have broken the salary cap on numerous occasions since it was introduced. We have rarely done anything positive for the game and if it wasn't for us sponging off one of the richest owners in the World we wouldn't have won anywhere near as much.'"
Fixed for accuracy.
