Saints v leeds : Tue May 31, 2011 11:56 pm  

looking forward to it. what's the injury situation like? should be a great game and it'll be interesting to see if leeds
recover from last week and to see your form as you normally up your game in the season's fixture v leeds.
should be a good tussle between the two packs, leeds have their full pack available i think like last week but
a few of them are recovering from injury so it'll take a few games for them to hit full pelt. It's probably the same
for you chaps. as a wire fan, i have a lot of confidence in our pack, but think your pack is at least as good if everyones
fit.

We've got 143 players still injured. Ade Gardner is another massive loss for us.

I think the key thing is what happens to Perry at his disciplinary and whether Puletua plays. Without those we're going to be slaughtered. With them we could win. Hopefully Lomax won't be feeling the effects of the high shot that had him limp off at the end of the Crusaders game.

Would be good if we could get a bench together for once. That has been our downfall this season so far.

Even with both of them missing I am not sure we could slaughter you. I am hoping that we can at least get some form going and give you a game

Nah. I'm hoping you're absolute tosh and we can improve our points difference!

For me this is the most important game of the season so far. Win we will be 5 points ahead of Leeds and looking up the table at Wigan,Wire and Hudds and in a very strong position to make the top 4, lose we will be 1 point ahead of Leeds and in a real dogfight between us and Leeds to keep in the top four.

A win will also give us a lot of momentum going into the tough matches ahead and with more and more players coming back (fingers crossed) it might just be looking up for us.

A win is pretty much essential as we haven't got a cat in hells chance of beating Warrington or Wigan.

Re: saints v leeds : Wed Jun 01, 2011 12:59 pm  

Saints by 10-20 points. Win or lose Saints will score quite a few points.

A draw and last minute defeat with half a team would certainly back that up - impossible.

It's a possability.

Haven't seen much of saints this year but against wire and hudds we looked to be playing about 2 gears slower than them.

And we appear to have left two in form players out in biff and clarky
