wire would be my last choice

Re: Club Call : Thu Sep 25, 2014 5:56 pm  

Definitely let Wigan and Warrington go at each other and play whoever is left, assuming Wire win tonight that is.

Re: Club Call : Thu Sep 25, 2014 9:05 pm  

Warrington are going to win it this year. The likes of Ratchford and Myler are maturing into very good players now and with Monaghan controlling things they won't be stopped. They are just out and out better than Wigan across the pitch, bar O'Loughlin. Leeds losing to Catalans is horrible as it means we could well get an easy semi final and end up at Old Trafford. Being realistic we simply don't deserve that this season.

I'd not exactly be confident, but I can see us taking Warrington in the final. I can't see us, or anyone else, beating Wigan.

That may be the pessimist in me.

No just the lack of logic.
Saints get the results by lifting their game over the Pies through this season and past seasons but have been thoroughly beaten by Wire in virtually all but the opening game of 2014.

Saints best chance of getting a win is against the Pies. Avoid Wire and pick Hudds hoping that Wigan continue with the upper hand over Warrington.

If we don't deserve to get to Old Trafford, having finished top, then who deserves it more?

I would pick Warrington 100%. I would even send out a press release tonight saying that we pick them.

The thing with these club calls is you can never win out of the situation. No one believes that we are confident enough to pick the wolfs, so if we did pick them then it immediately gives us the mental edge and shows real confidence and belief in the team. In this situation you have to be bold.

I also don't think they were particularly impressive tonight. Cas were awful (so bad) yet it was very tight until the GOB try. I don't know whether that is because they knew they could coast or whether they just didn't play well. I feel it is the latter as they haven't played well at all in the last couple of weeks, so I don't think they are as intimidating as people are making out on here.

I also think that we would struggle against Huddersfield. I think if they have Danny Brough back they will beat us and the fact that they should pick up a big win tomorrow might give them the confidence that Wigan smashed out of them last week.

BRING ON THE WOLFS I SAY!

This.

Re: Club Call : Thu Sep 25, 2014 10:26 pm  

I thought Wire were so so.

Too an interest in Clarke and Snyde tonight. Don't know if we were ever considering Snyde, but if we were we dodged the bullet. Maybe good on his day, but tonight he was woeful and it was not like he was behind a hammered pack.

Defense shocking, penalties, kicks astray, just not very good at all.

Clarke does have a nice eye for a gap, but his passing from the ruck was a bit hit and miss. Above heads, to feet. Not sure if it was the pressure or what, but seemed to pick up once the cas 9 came on the field.

As for who to pick, I don't buy the mentality thing. Just pick the best bet. To me that would be Catalan at this moment in time, after tomorrow it maybe Wire or Huddersfield, have to see how huddersfield shape up.

The only time I would not have picked the weakest team was the last season at KR, when I would have prefered Wigan in the semi, to take them out before the final as they were always going to do better on a bigger pitch.

There is 0% chance we will pick wire and I for one agree.

I think it gives the wolves the mental edge if we pick them. Nobody wants to go to Wigan so all be hoping we pick them.
