The play-off prediction league has thrown up a couple of surprises this week...

Engage's panel of experts have all said Leeds will beat Catalans, most think Wigan will win at Saints (something they haven't done since 2003 in Super League) and the majority go for Hodgson as Man of Steel ...

Do you agree? Check all the predictions here:

Jesus, everyone's tipping us. We'll never win now.

The formbook says Wigan could well win this one but you can't help but feel Saints are a sleeping beast that are waiting to spring into action with a huge preformence.

I get the feeling that will be in the Final against Leeds more so then against us 'If' they get past us.

Well it's nice to be favorites for once it might suit us more than being the underdogs, but I just get the feeling who ever get's through will be nothing but cannon fodder for Leeds, that's why Catalans winning would be fantastic.

I don't see where this Leeds invincibility tag is coming from tbh. They're a good side but are they unbeatable? not in the slightest imo and they've choked on more then one occassion when in the Favourites seat.

It's OK - Stevo tipped Stains to win, so we should be OK.

For me it's just about the fact that Leeds will have had a fair bit of time off and they may have an easier game on there hands than us, plus they have the experience of being there and winning there.

wish i was as confident, just got the feeling they will pip us like last time

6 start with the bookies if you're confident...

The more threads I read, the more nervous im getting

Suprised Morley didn't vote for himself for MOS !

What do you know?, you think that Lockers is a good player

I'm feeling the same, nerves are starting to creep in more and more as it comes closer. Just wish it was half time and we was up 22-0!

Me too, but excited as well.

I'd of thought this one would of been scratched!

wish it was full time and we were 22-0 up

You know, im being serious here, i actually still wouldnt be confident if we were 22-0 up at half time

Stevo normally gets it right.

Has anyone ever made a study of these experts' predictions, just to see how 'expert' they really are?

Me 2. Todays day dream at work, 78 minutes, scores are 16-16, Gleeson goes in at the Wigan end under the sticks, kisses his badge, roof blows off stand...etc etc.

God, let it be Saturday.

I don't think any of them got it right last week.

Or Gleeson scores at the Saints end, kisses the Wigan the badge, pulls down his shorts, bares his at the saints fans and curls out a huge cherry and white coloured Turd under the saints posts !!!!!!

I am expecting a comfotable Leeds win (with the scoreline at least anyway) of around 20 points but i do think Catalan will give them a good physical test.

As for our game hope Saints dont have to many 'big game' players for us who are used to the big occasion. If we start the semi final like we have 3 of our last 4 (Catalan, Leeds and Wire, obviously not including last seasons semi final with Leeds) we will not come back and will more than likely get blown away. We have got to be in the game for 80 minutes. I am going to stick my neck on the line though and say that i think we will match them and nick a very close win.

Man of Steel. IMO though Brett Hodgson has been the best player in the compotition this season and should win the award. Its hard to call with the award being picked by the players. Hes a very good thinker and you often see him going in at first and second reciver (mainly because Huddersfields half backs are terrible) to try and create that killer play. If it was still awarded by the gernos id have said Morley would have won it but i think the players will vote for Hodgson

16-16, 78 minutes... drop goal scored by number 7... Shaunnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn AAAllooooonnnggggggggggg (in that announcers voice for Knowsley road) all scousers going crazy. 17-16, 30 seconds left 5th tackle 40 meters out. Long gives a penalty away and richards kicks it to win it. Roof comes off the wigan end and it goes to Shaun Long crying



Now imagine that

Best post I've ever read mate. I peeing my pants!
