| Quote inside_man="inside_man"Knockout rugby isn't about looking flash, it's about grinding out the result. We're more than entertaining enough in the league, and tbh, a couple of our tries today were great team tries and a couple of bit of individual brilliance in there.
The first 20-30 minutes was crap because both teams were being tentative and didn't want to make the first big mistake.'"
Strangely Warrington didn't 'grind' out our last two SF wins. Far from it. We are by far the most entertaining team in SL and quite frankly I wouldn't have it any other way.

| Quote Richeastender="Richeastender"That first half was pedestrian - both sides were more afraid of losing than wanting to win. Second half improved but where was Saints famous offloading?
Just a note to little Sam - quit the acting. Excellent player but annoying little devil with his antics.
Can't see Leeds or Cas giving Wigan a hard time at Wembley.'"
What did Sam do wrong yesterday may I ask? I saw no acting from Sam. He's definately growing into the full back roll in defence but who wouldn't with Radlinski and Hampson in the coaching team. |

Thought it was an entertaining game myself, would much rather see a close encounter than a 60-0 thrashing.
Also the Saints fans singing 'Swing Low, Sweet Chariot' when Wigan went for two points displayed a wit rarely shown by RL fans. Funny when their own team decided to do the same shortly after though.
The empty seats were embarrassing though.

Well, I thought Wigan's defence was fantastic, and it layed the foundations early on.
For example, if Saints would of scored during the 10 minutes they were on Wigan's line - cleary it would of been a different game.
Awesome defence.

How does being knocked out of a competition you won 2 years running constitute being "back"? Going backwards, maybe.  |

A team with a good attack would not have had that many sets in an oppositions 30 and not come away with points... especially with their right hand side of Deacon, Tomkins and Charnley.
If Wigan performed like that against a good NRL team would have been over by half time. |

Think he's got a point, Your right it was fantastic defence, but Saints attack was dire until the last 10 mins, i bet we would of scored a few times with all that pressure.
Don't you think? |
