why are you talking sense on here

You have to pick hudds/cats, surely?

Ignoring the ranking, warrington are the strongest team left from the options and recently pumped saints. They nearly beat wigan at wigan as well the week after and saints have a better chance of beating warrington at OT than wigan. Hudds were terrible last week and cats away record this seasn is poor. Picking Hudds/cats gives saints the best probability of not only making old trafford.....but dare I say it...WINNING as there's always the chance wire do wigan.

It just seems more logical. Don't get me wrong nothing would please me more than taking out both Wire and Wigan in the playoffs, but we just haven't got the personnel available to pull it off.

If we are lucky, they may end up having a proper fight which would suit the other semi finalists with us down to the ground.

At the moment I'd be pretty confident against any of the teams next week. I know our halves are gone, but I'm yet to see a convincing display from anyone but Wigan.

Having said all that we have not played like we did last Friday for ages, so was it a turning of the corner or a one off.

You will pick tonight's winner surely?
Hudds were awful, if not worse, at Wigan last week and Anderson will demand a response. When Catalans have to travel on two consecutive weeks they usually lose on their second trip. Hudds to win tonight for me.

Although I think you'll pick tonight's winner somehow I feel you should pick Wire. They are busted, tired and bruised. I'm in the camp that they weren't very good last night and had more than a helping hand from Bentham. I think you can beat them at LP.
Hudds though are almost fully fit. With Danny boy in their squad who knows what they can do. Their forwards were 7-10kgs a man heavier than the Wigan pack yet got smashed. That isn't going to happen again I wouldn't think.

I can't see anyone beating Wigan at the DW so the best chance is at OT. Getting there will be easier perhaps against a beaten up and injured Wire than a fully fit Hudds who will have something to prove.

Nah, I don't buy that. I'm not taking Huddersfied or Catalans for granted - we'll have our hands full whoever we play - but Warrington are a different proposition to those sides, and, while they weren't at 100% last night, they weren't exactly awful either. They were certainly better than Huddersfield were last week.

Got to send Wire to Wigan for me, be stupid not too.

Don't fool me with your tosh



Your getting Wire and will have a massive local derby game next week bruising

We're not picking Wire, just asked Brown in Nandos.

We should have spoiled SKY and RFL's party by announcing who we were picking this morning.

The whole thing is very undemocratic , Saints should have the opportunity to pick from all the teams left in the competition ( including Wigan)

These two are abysmal. Anybody would be insane not to pick the winner of this.

Sorted, lowest ranked side, it is. 1 v 7 and 2 v 5.

Got to be Catalan!!!!

Well that made it easier...

Congrats Saints on another GF appearance.

Jesus Christ Eamonn! Gave me a heart attack.

God he had me there for a second.

Fair play to him - he got me there.

Superb from Eamon haha

Bloody Hell Eamon my heart skipped a beat there?

Awesome by the boss there! Also liked "we said last night you wouldn't touch warrington with a barge pole"
"The town or the team?"
Brilliant

Just picking my jaw up off the floor.

Can only see another defeat for saints at OT now.

So you keep to saying ...
