Whats your "honest" predictions?

Winner: Saints probably - we're on a roll and Wire will be starting to have their minds at Wembley. Plus we have the honour of the first win at LP to uphold.

Are we? I'd say Hudds pretty much rolled over last Sunday and before that we'd been unconvincing for a few weeks, although the Catalan game certainly didn't lack in commitment.

Always the optimist, I'm going for a Saints win.

We may not be playing dazzlingly but we haven't lost in a long, long time now and are winning games even when we're outplayed e.g. Cats. Winning is a tough habit to break

It all depends on how Warrington approach it. If they realise what a defeat could mean, i.e losing to us and at Wigan where they still need to go could theoretically cost them a top 2 spot. They won't want that. Wembley will be on their minds, but it's 3 weeks away.

If Warrington turn up well prepared and fully focused I don't think we can compete with that. They are as good as Wigan, if not better and we have shown we can't live with Wigan.

We could grind out a win against them, but there just isn't the quality in this Saints side to have genuine confidence in them.

I'm not exactly confident, but don't overestimate Wire. For a start, it appears Morley's form has slipped a yard this season, which is a massive factor.

Wire haven't changed much, they're still prone to playing crazy rugby if you frustrate them. Our big men are in good form, which should mean we can get to grips with them up front and go toe-to-toe and set-for-set, hopefully meaning our superior completion record will win out.

If, as you say, Wire up the intensity, we may struggle to contain them, but at the same time their error rate is prone to shooting up.

We play Wigan @ the HJ We beat them at the DW earlier in the Season.

We all know we are seriously lacking all across the backline compared to Wire and if they play to 100% then we will naturally struggle to contain them. But I think this game might be a little more important to us than it is to them and our forwards are bang in form which I reckon will be just about enough this time. We'll need the hoodoo and a full-on traditional big game Wire brainfreeze come the playoffs however.

...and I've just seen the post on the Wire board where it confirms that they have a 0-7 record playing at new grounds in SL... Time to reestablish the hoodoo...

Chris Hill has compensated for Morley's lack of form. The man's a wrecking ball. Carvell is having a good season too.

I think that if we click we could run riot, but it'll be tough as you're a good and hard team to break down.

Reckon we might just edge it but for the neutrals it'll be a great game and a great advert for RL.

Warrington by 14. Wire's aggression in the pack and quality in the backs will be enough to see Saints off.

A draw please.

I think our pack will get ontop of Wire's, but whether we can hold their backs is 50/50. I don't think they are as hot as they were last year and the CC is on the horizon. I'm going for Saints but a Warrington win would not be a surprise either.

Saints by 8-10 points.

We are in decent enough form to beat them.

If we can contain Roby we'll win, if not we won't!

Lance needs to play like a decent standoff against a pack thats going to be In his face.
I don't think hes capable,would be delighted to be proved wrong though.

I'm more optimistic about Lance he really turned up against Catalan which for me was the first game where the halves actually made an impact without having the most dominant pack. If he has done it once he can do it again.

The last few games wire have played outstanding rugby.. Winning games in the first 30 mins... All building for the end of the season, last years lessons have been learnt. You will have a tough game on Monday!!

And so will you, but then again it's 2nd vs 3rd, I'd expect nothing less.

I am expecting a Wire win because I think we are better than Saints. TS has been gearing the whole season to these last 5 games and then into the play offs. We have rested players in games when last season we played a full strength team, Salford away is a prime example. We got a drubbing on that night but I think when TS formulated his season plan he accepted that by resting players when they were fit we would lose games we shouldn't.

We have only 2 players not 'fit' for tomorrow in Bridge & Harrison. I have heard that Harrison could play but TS is sticking to his season long plan of having our squad all fit and fresh for the beginning of September, hence Harrison is not being 'risked'.

Wire will win tomorrow night and by how many depends on what Saints team turn up.

But Warrington will win.

Shall I take it from that Fatbell that you are feeling confident?





Still not won at Saints in SL and long may it continue.

Wow

you're setting yourself up for a (potential) big fall!

Well if Results carry on as they are today, that will favour both Saints and Wire.

Catalan taking a kicking at the moment as are Leeds.

Will put a gap between 3rd and the rest. 3rd or 2nd makes little difference apart from a home tie.

Morley sent off in the second half. Come to think of it when was Morley last sent off???
