Doesn't even come close to what i am feeling right now. Brilliant effort boys. Us and Warrington have done Super League proud. Congratulations to both of us.

That was awesome! The guys are absolutely out on their feet after one of the best defensive efforts ever! Great game, great atmosphere, great result! Hard to pick a MoM from such a team effort but Powell gets it for me.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg

Sam Powell was my pick, followed by Bateman.

[size=100:2md8k3b3][b:2md8k3b3]'Do you remember when we had that meeting in Orlando? We talked about how we were knocked out the previous year by Leeds. And at the end, I asked you one question. "Do you want to be a semi-final team? Or do you want to do something special?" You all said you wanted to win. But talking is easy – it needed you to believe. It needed you to work hard – harder than you had – and make sacrifices. You did all that. you worked for each other. You stuck together when it was tough. And because of your efforts, you sit here tonight as champions. I'm proud of you. Be proud of yourselves. You've done something special.' [color=red:2md8k3b3] Shaun Wane's post-Grand Final speech. 5th October 2013.[/color:2md8k3b3][/b:2md8k3b3][/size:2md8k3b3]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_16304.jpg



It was a great team effort from 1-17 but, for me, Bateman was MOM by a mile. Played his usual take no prisoners game in attack and defence and ran his blood to water. Hopefully the whole team can get a little rest before the Chemics match on Friday (thanks for the short turnaround Sky icon_sad.gif )

No one had a bad game (although Gelling tried his best at times) but Bateman was my mom by a country mile - never stopped and was a handful in both attack and defense - the Cronulla payers must have been sick of him by the end.

Powell was my MOM not sure how they picked Williams. I was wondering what happens when Mclorum is fit what will happen. Bateman was outstanding he regularly out plays much bigger forwards. Gildart did well he kept Bird very quiet

Bateman is our best player by some distance

The defensive effort from all our players was immense and it had to be as we put ourselves under pressure due to errors.

I've watched the game back and I thought Bateman was out best with Farrell not far behind. Another player I'd give a mention to us Morgan Escare who I thought was terrific in tough conditions. There isn't much to him but he was terrier like in defence and cleaned up everything he needed to on the ground. Add in his goal kicking and his in game kicking and he looks a very rounded player. To think the guy is just settling in and doesn't speak English really bodes well for the future.

From what I saw yesterday, Escare has been a very good signing and, based on last seasons performances, it would/will be a shame when Sam replaces him if his form carries on. His attack has never been in question and he has electric pace but his defence yesterday was outstanding

I'm looking forward to watching him on drier pitches. I think on his showings so far Sam will be lucky to get back in straight away.He's certainly played better in the past couple of weeks then Sam did for us last season and he adds a kicking game and gives us a good goalkicker by the looks of things.

Maybe we'll shift Escare to the wing (which would be tough on Tierney) or we could potentially get Sam in the halves with Tommy Leuluai sharing the hooking role with Powell (although Micky Mac is due back around the same time). I doubt it, but maybe we'll just leave Sam out and make him wait for an opportunity.

If things like these are all we'll have to worry about though and I think we can be pretty chuffed. It's the rest of sueprleague that should be more worried then us.

It was only watching the highlights last night that I realised that Powell kicked the final conversion from out wide!! icon_lol.gif

Had a great game. Micky Mac is no dead cert to regain that hooker spot!

I think when Sam is fit he walks straight back in, which will be tough for whoever loses out as a result. The one I'm not sure about is MM. How the hell can you justify dropping Powell when he goes the full 80, allowing another forward a place on the bench?

My thoughts to the letter and same goes for Wire both teams put on a fantastic display and we couldn't have asked for more from either team. Huge well done to everyone involved eusa_clap.gif eusa_clap.gif eusa_clap.gif eusa_clap.gif

On Sam Powell.

He was the stand out player for me, playing the minutes he played and to be targeted like he was. You can target him as much as you want but he’s got a heart the size of a lion and I’ve got Micky Mac to come back too.
