Surprisingly enough I'm not Mr. Wellens but just one of thousands and thousands of other outstandingly attractive and charismatic Sintelliners. I appreciate that there being so many of us can easily confuse someone coming from a town exclusively populated by deformed mutants, so I'll let you off this time. No need to thank me.

No matter how many times you say it, it still won't be true.

"Smashed to bits" is hyperbole. "Outplayed" is about right.

If you say so, but neither the score, nor the toothless performance from the 13 man team back up that contention.
We will never know for sure, but I propose that any decent team would have taken Wigan to the cleaners. Saints had 78 minutes to soften them up, and then show some of their trademark "Entertainers" flair to put us to the sword. However, they looked as clueless in the 80th minute as they did in the 3rd.
When the sending off occurred, Eddie Hemmings must have made a mad dash for his Kleenex in anticipation of an evening full of climax. His balls must have been full to bursting after that Saints performance. No doubt he will find relief next year when you put the cleaners through Wakefield, aided by the two 19 year old "Monsters".

*sigh*... Here we go again... We had no halves left on the pitch... We had a prop at centre, a SR at #6 etc. etc. of course we were fragmented and disorganised and one-dimensional and scrappy... But we still almost entirely snuffed out your vaunted and full-strength backline with our cobbled-together ad-hoc line. And our forwards (with one less man in the rotation let's not forget, largely cancelling out our on-field man advantage) had by far the better of the game. It weren't pretty, but it's what we had to do to survive in extreme adversity, and ultimately you just couldn't find a counter it.
You're right - we'll never really know if wed've won 13v13. You think we wouldn't, I think we would. But the best team won on the night - that can't be contested. And if you [ireally[/i want to wail over the hypotheticals, wed've stomped you into powder 13v13 with our absentees present anyway. So there.

I didn't realise I was wailing over anything, but if you see it that way there is not a lot I can do about it.
Who's to say that, had you had all your halves available, your daft coach wouldn't have played two of them at prop, and one of them on the wing? The injuries just served to disguise his predilection towards baffling positional anomalies.

Deary me, the one-trick pony is back.
Do you have anything sensible to add, or are you just going to dribble out of the corner of your mouth until the start of next season?

| The records will say 'Super league champions 2014 - St Helens' . They won't say but Wigan would have won if they had 13 men on the field.

Ain't life grand.

Comedy gold! I think it's time you took your own advice and got off this board with what dignity you have left. Unfortunately that would be none but seeing you came on with none at least you haven't lost anything!

| Even as someone in the ABW brigade, gloating, still, really?
At a time when everyone in the media is attacking our game do we need it from within?
