Wow. If that is the Saints 17 that walk out at Wembley then our lads will have their work cut out.
Based on current form there are only on or two warrington players that would come close. Over the past 3 months I think it would be fair to say that none of our players are out playing their opposite number in the red vee. Probably unfair to compare Clark and Roby because neither of them are usually less than a 9/10 performance.
I don't like betting against Wire but it may soften the pain come 16:30 next Saturday. I just hope it is a great game in front of the cameras.

We’re in for a bumming, plain and simple. They owe us in a ‘big game’ and aside from OT they don’t come much bigger than Saturday. I truly dread it, our current form is going to see us mullered. Can’t see anything other than a valiant Wire effort against an unstoppable force.

There. I hope someone can quote this next Saturday at 5pm and tell me how wrong/stupid/unfaithful I was!

They owe us nothing after that hoodoo for god knows how long. It still hurts now and it makes them the worst team to lose to IMO. After that hoodoo I'd say we owe them a good tonking in a few finals, it would certainly ease the painful memories a touch anyway, I'm fully expecting another painful memory from next week though.

Wire win. Have no doubt. We are simply too powerful at full strength.

Re: Good news : Fri Aug 16, 2019 6:07 pm  

Are we even going to be at full strength though?

Quite simply, no.

Even if we get our first XI back, they won't be fully fit.

Hopefully after the CC final we're all hailing your vision and optimism.

Right now, you're just coming across as a bit deluded.

Hope you're right and we're all tragically wrong.

Austin on one leg won’t be able to save us.

I love the optimism about the best team on the park wins but in a team environment you have to factor in the man management and ability to motivate a team.
Woorying signals are offload and everbody is looking at each other to see who is going to pick the ball up. Or Clark running on his own. We just need a play the ball with nobody at dummy half in the second half to have a full house of big red flags that say that the coach has no influence on the players.
