Oh come on, they were rested.

Probably although hopefully not. However, it's Leon Pryce you need to worry about. He has been fantastic this season and has really taken on the responsibility of leading the team. We can cope, play well and win without Kyle; we cannot do any of that without Leon.

If Pryce has his usual game against us, he'll be anonymous for about 65 minutes. The problem will be that for the other 15 he'll create about four tries and score two!

If Saints win at weekend the last 3 games are:-



Wolves : Wakefield (a), Hull (h), harlequins (a)

St helsn: bradford (h), Crusaders (a), Castleford (h)



All things being equal the middle game for boths side has trip-up written all over them for both teams. Saturday could be VERY important come September!

Nah. Pryce has really taken charge this season. It has been ages since anyone could have reasonably accused Leon of going missing for any number of minutes. Without Leon we would be nowhere.

This down to injurys. resting player. cup semi and two teams that can play but may not do. Its very hard to call.

Wire will win at the weekend.



Wigan and Wire seem to be hell bent on top2, Saints and Leeds are just rolling along, building for the play-offs. IMO of course.



I can see a pretty hopeless Saints performance on Saturday before beating Leeds with a couple of players back the week after. 3rd will do us just fine - we'd still be playing your mob regardless and the HJ doesn't hold much fear for Saints.

We'll lose and finish third, then go to Knowsley Road and lose, beat whoever we get from positions 5-8 at home the week after, then go back to Knowsley Road and lose again.



It's Saints. That's what happens. Deal with with it.

Despite saying this for the last 8 years more often than not I can see Warrington winning this one.



As mentioned there seems to be a level of desperation to finish in the top 2 that we've just not got at Saints, it doesn't seem like anyone at KR is at all bothered where we finish.



I also think you could hammer us. You will get into an early lead and there will be this outpouring of emotion and excitement.

I love all this if we win this, beat whatsit blah blah. Thank goodness TS doesn't think like this - the team would be all over the place. You can speculate, calculate, worry about the voodoo, but it is all on the day. Never thought we would win the semi last year but we did. Thought we had finally nailed Saints at Knowsley but we didn't.



This is precisely why we are currently 2nd and in the semi for Wembley. TS concentrates on the game at hand. Full stop. The only thing he does with foresight is this 'resting players' business. Would love to know his thoughts.

No disrepect to warrington here, there playing awesome this year but why are all the saints fans on here saying oh were going to lose were inconsistent we wont get up for it as much as warrington. Its Saints were talking about, they know theres a record there that will be in the back of there mind, they want second, they want momentum of course they'll be up for it! We can beat anyone on the day if we turn up!

So nervous for saturday
