| ... at least we can have a good laugh at St Helens losing their FIFTH Grand Final on the trot, because let's face it, what's the chances of them beating Warrington? Slim? None?
I daresay some of their fans are actually praying Wigan stuff them on Saturday, because the embarrassment of losing another Grand Final would surely be far too much.
What say you?

| I say I'd rather be positive for this Saturday rather than bother about the other lot. Leave any banter about the last few Grand Finals until later, I hate to say it but at least they've made grand finals over the last few seasons.
I'm just hoping that we can prevent them from making another OT appearance on Saturday.

| If we lose .. which I don't think we will .. but, if we do; then I'd like to see Warrington lift the cup at OT over Saints.
As much as I dislike both TEAMS, I think the true Wire fans deserve a grand final win. Plus, it'll keep the league looking 'fresh' in the eyes of the media .. personally, to me, that's the main thing.
But, of course, that's only if we lose to Saints.

Absolute worst nightmare scenario ever.
I will have to take a last minute holiday out of the country leaving my mobile phone and any other means of communication behind.
Unthinkable.

| Yeah, reaching 6 GFs on the spin, how embarrassing for us to remain competitive.
I'd rather we nearly got relegated or missed the play-offs entirely like Wigan and Wire in recent years than kept reaching these pesky finals, that would be much better.

Its a great record, but you must think its time to actually win one?

Of course it is, if we deserve to win the game, we will. If we don't, we won't.
But I don't find reaching grand finals embarrassing. If we get there and are outplayed in the final, that will be disappointing and upsetting, but certainly not embarrassing.

As I pointed out when I completely destroyed you on that other thread, close enough is NOT good enough. The aim is to WIN, not 'almost' win.
Four grand final chokes on the trot is, frankly, an embarrassing record.

This + 1.
The aim is to win, after all. Losing is failure.

But surely you must find losing four on the trot embarrassing. I know I would, and I also know that you'd be the first to never shut up about it if it was Wigan who had FAILED to win four on the bounce.
If I were you, I'd be praying we beat you on Saturday to save you further embarrassment.
I also find it hard to believe that someone who calls themselves a real fan, as I presume you do, would accept four, potentially five successive high profile failures. Show me a Saints fan who would, and I, my friend, will show you a dirtygreatbigfeckoff liar.

Surely being the 'Jimmy White' of Rugby League, must bother you a little bit?

It's a bad record, but not embarrassing.
Look at 2007 - 2009, would you rather bow out where we did, 1 game short every year or get to the Final?

We've won the Super League more often than anyone else, and reached more Grand Finals than anyone else.
I'm so embarrassed
Anyone who would rather not reach a final to avoid risking losing a final is a coward. How can reaching a final be more embarrassing than not reaching a final?
All very small time.

All in the past bla bla bla, you need to shift the monkey off your back sooner rather than later, your squad is old, your best prop forward is leaving the club, your stand off has turned french. Great signing in the kiwi bloke but a team that has aleady made PW captain for next season will slowly fade.

All of which has nothing to do with embarrassment at reaching GFs
As for our squad being old, what an odd statement.

You should discuss the embarrassment with the OP, i am mearly discussing that you need to shift the monkey from your back, it MUST have an effect on the players who take the field. It basically finished KC career on a low, which was a real shame.
Paul Wellens 31
Josh Perry 30
Ade Gardner 29
Tony Puletua 32
Chris Flannery 31
Francis Meli 32
Kyle Eastmond - GONE
Leon Pryce - GONE
James Graham - GONE
All players who would be in starting line up right?
Without doubt you have brought some excellent young players thourgh, none more so than Lomax this season.

| Why are wigan fans so obsessed with saints???? you're beginning to sound like a Liverpool fan talking about United.
If we get to another Gf and lose, so what, Warrington have been the best side all season, and probably deserve to call themselves champs anyway, all we can say is that we've been beaten by a better team on the day, but we would also have the satisfaction of ending your season!!!
Plus anybody who thinks that saints have an ageing side, obviously hasn't been watching the game for the past 2 years, season after season people have gone on about is this the season when we see the fall of the mighty St Helens, and each year we answer that question with a big fat NO.
Year after year we are never too far away, and now we have got the move out of the way, we will only get better.
Have we ever been close to relegation? Relegated for that fact? missed out onthe play offs? NO
Robo, you look like a sad little boy son.
