Just looked at your last 8 games.

Ave score for: 12
Ave score ag: 15

Won 4
Lost 4

Leeds' is...

Ave score for: 37
Ave score ag: 16

Won: 7
Lost: 1

Now all this means very little but as a big NFL fan I know that in the big finals the team with the better defensive stats normally comes out on top.

So we win 16-15, great!

Or we win 37-12

Shhhhhhhhhhh

Depends who your last 8 games were against really.



If our defence holds up as it has done in the last few games then we are in with a shout.

I'm not nervous at all but boy am I excited. I haven't been this excited about a Grand Final since Long's drop goal GF against the Bulls. It's great to be going into the game as underdogs because, perhaps, we'll get behind our team vocally and not give up if Leeds score first or get two scores ahead.

Lets just hope for a memorable game with both sides at their best and with the best team on the day winning. We do not want a result based on the ref's bad decisions. To loose in a classic is not a disgrace

I dunno about that. I think fans have seen too many poor performances this season to think that because we are underdogs fans will get behind the team to urge them on. It's equally likely that fans will believe the writing is on the wall the minute Leeds go into the lead simply because we have been playing so poorly for so long, and go silent.

However, it will be good to have some noise, from how ever many of us do actually turn up!

I'm neither nervous nor excited this year. It feels nicer than last year when I came crashing down after being so totally convinced we were going to take the cup home with us following our previous performances.

Ditto.

I don't know why you lot are so despondent. Your team is still full of the same players that have achieved so much success and there's still very little between us.

I really wish every game in Super League had the same intensity as our matches have these last few years.

I haven't anticipated a rugby match as much as I have this one our last two meetings this season stemming back to the cup game at Headingley

No nerves for me this year and I was wracked with them last year.

You are right, the nerves largely stem from having the anticipation of winning and having everything to lose.

In my experience, if you expect defeat then there is hope and a small feeling of excitement but hardly any nerves. If we are leading at half time, then there will be nerves.

As a Leeds fan I'm pretty nervous actually.

If anyone knows that form counts for very little going into these matches, it's Leeds fans!

I think there is a bit of doom and gloom around at Saints, but the quality of players at Potter's disposal is still very high, and there's a lot of big game experience too. I can't pick a winner on Saturday. I hope it's Leeds, but I'm far from over-confident.

Having missed last year's final I just hope it's a great match.

Have faith... 3/5 Sky Sports pundits fancy you lot to lift the trophy tomorrow night. www.skysports.com/story/0,19528, ... 55,00.html Pundits say: McRae: Saints O'Connor: Saints Carney: Leeds Stevo: No Call Clarke: Saints

Completely neutral tomorrow (

[size=25he lies)[/size I just hope that the game is as good as both last weeks semis.

I'll be sat screaming at the t.v. with a large whisky in my hand.

I just hope that all the supporters enjoy and behave themselves.

I won't wish you good luck, you wouldn't expect it from me, but I do hope that the best team wins and that the rugby decides it and not some poor refereeing decision.

amen to that

to be fair bar 02 and 99 we rarely have much controversy in the grand finals.

It's everyones worst nightmare going into the game, to lose by a dodgy ref call but once the game kicks off it just flows and you rarely see bad calls.

Last night was an omen if anyone saw a Question of sport.

21-20 to Saints.

That was Wilkin's winning score on Matt Dawson's team.

Get on it. Long drop goal, 79th minute.

Very nervous this morning i must say.

Spot of good news though.... Just checked the odds at my online bookies and they have shortened saints odds.

Someone knows something

We'll smash em




I hope

not nervous one iota. i expect us to lose and by a hefty margin. if we lose its what i expected, if by some miracle we win, then it will be a huge bonus and ill treat myself to a pint.
fair means or foul i will take any victory. however, double standards i know and make no apologies about, i will be angry if leeds win on a dodgy decision.would be nice for it to be a classic with saints somehow victorious, but a boring ,dire match with saints winning will do me too.

hope all you saints fans have a great day/night today


one last thing though




































COME ON YOU MIGHTY SAINTS

I dont do "underdogs" tags. If your good enough to get there you got to have a chance.

Yes there will always be a favorite or a form team but we have beaten these twice this season so we know how to get the job done.

Its time for some belief and for our key players to step it up.

Let me in those changin rooms.... ill get um up for it!!!

Come on you SAINTS!!!

I'm nervously confident that we can pull it off. Good luck lads !!!

I'm not nervous, excited, but not nervous! Getting to the GF was always the judgement of a good season for me, winning it would just be a bonus! Leeds/saints are her close in terms of quality and just hope the team which wins is the best on the day and the RFLs idiotic decision to appoint Ganson doesn't take over

Whereas I'm just nervous!

C'mon Saints!

Im nervous now ive just read that!COOOMMMEEE OONNN UUU SAAAINNNTSS!!!
