We only beat Catalans by two points in last years final so really the rot has set in for years

Dodd is rubbish too. A poor man's Kevin Brown.

Agreed, makes no odds.

Leeds go into a GF having been second bottom not 6 months ago and missing Newman, Fusitua, Handley, Sezer and Gannon.

Saints are missing Grace, Hopoate (who are both rubbish anyway), Walmsley (one trick pony) and Knowles.

If Leeds win, it will be a miracle - but the Salford game has show how far the Saints dominance has fallen - sides are starting to catch up now.

Thats the worst attempt at a wind up i've ever seen

If Agent Hurrell is half as much use to Leeds as Agent Meli was in those Grand Finals we stand a great chance

Not sure where the notion of Walmsley is a one trick pony comes from.
Probably the most consistent prop over several years.
Like what's been said it`s a pity both teams aren`t at full strength for this one and going on our last two games it`s a hard one to call.
On paper Saints look the better of the two but so did Wigan and Catalans.
It`s a shame Gannon isn`t playing and you never know Smith might spring a surprise and add Sezer to our 21.
No predictions from me for this one as I haven`t a flipping clue who will win it.
Here`s for a great game and Welsby messing up a plenty
