That's a brave statement for a team that has won [u3[/u games in the last 14 (half season) which is statistically worse than 2002.

| I'm not expecting us to win tonight. Saints seem to save their best perforances for us in the last couple of years. They won comfortably at their place when they were playing crap and had most of their pack missing. I expect us to play ok in parts but untimately fall away at the end.

| Another pearler from Duckie. We again isolated Vaughan with Lees and Knowles/Bell all over him. Philbin and Harrison were poor, Nicholson isn't ready for the big games yet but looks a player and Currie isn't the player he once was. Mikaele and Kasiano strangely quiet.

He's not confident. He's just a deluded attention seeker
Comes on here and predicts a Warrington easy victory no matter what, to create controversy. Clearly has no grasp on the game based on his predictions. The Piers Morgan of RLFANS. Will say anything to get his name out there. The guy is just full of it. Also makes claims about insider knowledge that, once again, turn out to be BS, when someone with real connections tells the truth.

So I have less right to say Wire will win, than another poster can say Wire will lose…isn’t that the prerogative of a forum.
And you say I’m delusional.
Fair dos.
With all the delusions of bombed chances that blew our scoring chances and gave away easy ground, and incorrect ref calls, I believe we should have beaten Saints.
All that and Saints by their own admission played the toughest game all season, yet Wire have sheet loads of improvements yet to come from them. Wire we’re no where near their best.

| You can post what you like, it's a free public board. It's just a little tiresome reading the exact same thing for years. You've been confidently predicting we will win every game easily and also sweep the board when it comes to trophies for as long as I can remember. So you're either delusional or looking for attention.

Of course you should have beaten us, Walmsley Paasi, Wingfield, Norman, Delaney, Hopoate and Hurrell missing would be enough to incapacitate most teams. Couple it with Sironen, Makinson and Knowles playing injured any team wanting to be taken seriously in the competition should have seen the obvious Saints tactic of getting ahead and then clinging on. We had Royle at prop for christs sake.
But Saints did what they have done for decades, found a way to win, and Warrington did what they did for decades, found a way to lose. Until you address such a fundamental culture issue, you can have as much improvement in you as you like, it wouldn’t change the result.
Also I don’t understand the ref calling; what precisely did he get wrong? From about 20 minutes onwards you got about 10 penalties/ back to 6s to our 1. The breaking at the scrum penalty really annoyed me as Warrington had been doing it all game.

Well let’s hope for your sake we don’t finish 6th and play you in the play offs or we’ll do what we always do and win and Saints will do what they always do and cack it against us.

Since starting watching in the 60s the Wire rollercoaster has given us plenty of practice at being gallant losers . But would you watch any other team ?

In a nutshell - We are an 'also ran', mid table SL show pony with delusions of competing at the top with players who we, and they, think are better than they are.

Not when Saints have to play Wire in a play off.
Waterhouse and Lineham.
I don’t fear Saints away from the HJ in a big game.

If we are a mid table team, which other team(bar the obvious 3!! )has achieved more than us in the last 15 years?

1 CC win in the last decade. I don't count losing in finals as an achievement.

| If we just look at the last 5 years, we are certainly mid-table, at best. Last 15, we are probably the 4th best (statistically almost certainly).
