Evans and Napa know enough about each other to exploit any weakness, they were together at the Roosters as young players and neither took a backward step, so they should be an interesting match up. Saints are relentless from minute 1 to 80 and they must have that culture, as a club, running through them because even the inexperienced players they introduce buy into that from game one. That intensity must be the same at training, it isn't something you can just turn on, I'd imagine. It would be interesting to see what it would be like should they suffer an injury crisis though, as beyond the first 17, like us, they don't have a lot of SL tested depth.

Whilst St's have a very good squad what impresses me the most about them is that they play with such intensity from 0 mins to 80mins. Their line speed particularly in defence was outstanding and they never gave Catalan any time or space after the first 20-25mins. When we play with that level of intensity we also look a much different team the problem is it only lasts for about 10-15 minutes in a game. I am hoping our line speed is one of the area's that BH has worked on and drilled in to the players especially when defending and we close down the 10M quickly as as the oppostion ptb instead of standing still allowing teams to make easy metres.

All eyes on the Grand Finalists tonight.

However the Bookies have Wigan as favourites and are giving Rovers a 4 point start.

Think Adam will realise just how far away we are from being a top side when we play Saints next week especially if Wakefield do a number on us

Conversion attempts have been atrocious.
Let's hope they don't factor in the final result.

When Wigan get French in their team aswell they will have an awful lot of pace.

Certainly don’t look like GF favourites like some seem to try to have us believe.

Nor Super League’s Entertainers.

Surprised they chose not to play Coote tonight.

Sneyd booting Salford to victory away at Cas.

It is impressive, but every single player coach know that, that is what wins games, 80 mins of intense rugby, that’s what’s so poor about super league last few seasons, only saints seem to be able to play with that level of intensity most weeks. This game tonight is miles of last nights game. The worst team in the nrl always seems to play with high intensity, just get beat a better opposition, sl teams are often beat by intensity, especially us! Good starting 13 on paper for Sunday, but if we don’t bring some intensity, can see us getting beat

Phil Clarke can’t help himself bigging up Wigan for the Grand Final already!

Thought Wigan looked decent, hard working and fed off Rovers mistakes.

Intresting to see Radfords team start poorly, took him a couple of seasons to get Hull to challenge, Faraimo sin binned which isn't a suprise.

Not sure I can take another season of this sky commentary team, kills me. Be interesting to see how the ch4 game goes Sunday, at least they’ve gone with a proper match commentator in mark wilson, think he only commentated on 1 sky game and was binned, don’t think baz and terry liked him actually commentating on the game, rather then letting them talk shiiiite for 80

Sneyd had a stinker lol
