Quote ="NtW"I was previously feeling quietly confident about Saturday. However I've just watched the Wigan-Leeds game, and I've change tune.
I'm now outspokenly confident
I really don't get why people are worried or nervous. Is it the thought of Matty Smith tearing us apart? Or super Sam suddenly not dropping any bombs? Or O'Loughlin making a comeback and proving once again that
curly hair is cool? Or that we might choke in another big game cos that's what the Wire always do?
My current calm, confident state comes from watching a lot of RL over the years, and the pleasure of seeing the Wire's rise over the past few seasons. Through my promise and blue tinted specs I can only see the end of 58 years of waiting. It's our year!!'"
You massively under estimate Sam Tomkins, I thought he was brilliant under the high ball and linked into the back line all nigh. Matty Smith and Blake Green controlled the game, okay they don't tear teams apart but they put players in positions to do so. O'Loughlin's comeback gave us the leadership we needed in such a big game.
