You big jessie.

If/when we break this Old Trafford spell it will probably be against the odds and it will definitely be a moment to cherish.

I've no problems admitting it, I feel sick about it now and we've not even got over the final hurdle to get there yet.

I don't think the team will win anything until it gets rid of the likes of Wello, Meli, TP, Robes etc. If it's playing on our minds, imagine what it does to them.

Saddened nothing you say amazes me anymore.

Tell me why you want to get rid of Roby again???

You do talk some utter trash.

why do you even watch saints? Your the biggest knocker I have ever seen!!!

Why do you watch saints, when all you ever do is slag them off?

I too, am not saying that we'll win it, but I remember the 80's and early 90's, god help us if you was around then!!! You would have topped yourself!!!

I think last year was particularly hard because we could (and probably should) have won it, it was as good a chance as you are going to get, but we let the game slip making silly decisions. The four years before that I expected us to lose, and whilst it still hurt that certainly softened the blow.

However, you've got to be in it to win it, and if we play like we did at the weekend but improved our kicking game somehow we still have a have a chance.

If the answer to this question is NO then do yourself a favour and remove yourself from this board, burn your Saints shirt, rip your season ticket and go and watch another sport.

If Saints had 0.001% of winning in two weeks time, I'd want us to get there 100% of the time. I can't quite understand why people wouldn't. How are we going to get the monkey off our back if we're not actually in the final? If people are that bothered about losing, what is the real difference between losing 5 or 6 on the bounce? You must be really bothered about what other people think and say if you don't want us to get there.

Do you want Saints to reach a final and lift silverware? In ANY circumstance, even if we were lining up against the greatest club side ever assembled and we were 500/1 to win, I'd rather we were there. As it stands, if we get to the final, we'll have to beat a Wigan side who admittedly would be favourites but aren't as good as the team that we beat last year in the playoffs or who beat us in the 2010 Grand Final.

1 - I don't want to get rid of Roby. I just think the psychological scars will run deep.
2 - That's exactly what they said about Columbus, Einstein and Darwin. I'm not wrong, I'm just too advanced for 2012.
3 - I enjoy(ed) watching rugby league and support the team 110% (When Wello doesn't have the ball, in which case I boo)
4 - I think you are repeating yourself now, this is like talking to my Gran

Who would not want to see the team they support in the Grand Final

I like seeing Saints make it to the big night and be in contention of being crowned Champions, despite the 5 in a row. I think being 80 minutes from a 7th consecutive Grand Final shows the team's character and desire to get there and be in with a shout of being crowned Champions. I would rather Lose the Grand Final than not be there as it is the aim of all 14 clubs at the start of the season to be there on Grand Final night...

Rant Over

If we lost for the 6th time, would you go to the 7th?

Yes, because they are the team I support, it's a simple as that.

Even if we lost 10 in a row I'd still go to the 11th. It's only down the road and is always a good day out

I don't think we'll get to this year's GF though
