I believe it's been moved from Saturday 22nd August to Blackbrook on Friday 21st August. Why?

Wigan first team are at Warrington on Friday 21st so that stops a lot of fans who also enjoy the academy games attending.

It's been done specifically to annoy Wigan fans who would like to attend both fixtures.

Still the 22nd on the Saints webpage. 21st on the RFL.

It's Levy Nzoungou 30th Birthday on the Saturday and there all going out on the Razz?

Coz the game doesn't dance to Wigans tune and we'll do the we like?????

Perhaps someone is getting married. Or maybe there's a football match on.

I can't imagine it's at Blackbrook on that date as it's 'Brookfest' on 22nd August & there's a massive stage going up.

Boom.

Why ask us?

We rely on you for all our information whether it be our financial position, our chairman, our inferiority to Wigan's youth and the folly of owning our own ground when we could rent or play at Millwall...........

I realise that I'm the source of most of the factual information, but in this case I don't know why it's been moved and thought someone may have some reasonable/sensible answers. I should have known better. If I find out over the weekend I'll let you know.

It's only a guess, but perhaps Liverpool reserves are playing there that weekend, and Brook is only available on the Friday.

Under 19s game Saints V Wigan is a curtain raiser before the Saints Huddersfield game you must be running scared as you don't want any Wigan fans there, we play Wires that night sorry we play Friday, but not paying £20 just to watch U19

No you don't.

According to todays League Express the game is at Blackbrook on Friday 7 p.m. , but on Wigan web site it is at Langtree Park on Thursday 5:30 p.m. It's 2nd v 1st so should be a good game to watch. I was very surprised to see Saints lose heavily at Leeds over the weekend, Leeds have been very poor this season, but it could be that they have got some of their better players back from injury and/or dual reg.

A good win for Wigan academy U19's, coming back from 16 - 0 down after 20 minutes to win 16 - 23. I'll bet Liam (Brucie) Forsyth is a happy lad. Saints binned him a couple of years ago and tonight he scored the match clinching try.

Ditched him? I thought he was only on a 1 year deal, went to Australia then came back and signed for yourselves after his deal expired as you offered him more. He's not been at Saints much either. He was a scholar at Warrington before signing that 1 year deal at ourselves along with big Ross.

No, told by Derek Traynor that he wasn't being offered a contract, but could stay on a pay as you play basis. Wigan offered him a trial and after a three or four games offered him an academy contract. He reminds me of Joe Burgess when he was younger and he's got a bit of "devil" in him.

Surprising really, I've said it before but thought he was one of the two best centres at that age group along with Gildart from this side of the Pennines. Surprising to see Fleming get first team rugby before both, even if it is through injuries.

Never rated Forsyth. Was decent playing for a great Bold team but not a star in any shape or form.

Top player, and one of the reasons for that great Bold team. The lad's going places.

Yep, Wigan.

Really?

Saints where by far the best team in the first half. Wigan's first try shouldn't have been given due to a knock on in the build up. It wasn't picked up by the ref though. That try gave them a lift going into the dressing room.

Saints didn't play well in the second half at all. Had chances but didn't take them. We missed Morgan Knowles when he went off with concussion. Got to praise Wigan though because they upped their game in the second 40 and took their opportunities.

The semi finals are pretty much sorted out now. It will be Wigan vs Warrington and Saints vs Hull FC. Saints haven't lost to Hull this season but the last time the goons played Warrington, wire came out on top.
