[Griff9of13]

From what I've seen of the two teams recently on TV I've got to go for Wire.

[Exiled Wiganer]

Wire in a high scoring Thursday night classic. They have momentum and enough talent - if Hudds can score 34 away from home, Wire should fancy this.

[Southerner]

I go Wolves by 12+ considering they're nearly at full strength with Ashton Sims, Ben Currie and Anthony England all returning. Also saints have been leaking too many points recently.

[Chronicler of Chiswick]

Warrington by 10.

[CiderWire]

I think this will hinge on Smudgers choices in the halves and 3/4's. It'll be close and could go either way but I'm going to be optimistic and say Wire by 6 or less.

[Saintslass]

Under normal circumstances I would say that since it's Saints away at Wire, Saints by a gazillion.  However, given our poor form over the last three weeks, especially in defence and particularly within the first ten minutes, I am now sitting uncomfortably on the fence.  I am sure within the first five minutes I'll be hiding behind the sofa, if the last three games are anything to go by.

You get used to it after a while believe me!

 

I'm going to predict that these Wolves couldn't even trouble Little Red Riding Hood and that the mighty Saints will destroy them by 30-40 points. Look for Luke 'The Woodcutter' Walsh to have a big game in this one, and the outstanding Adam Quinlan to bag another hat-trick of tries!

What have you been putting in your tea?

[MrFussy]

Stevo's handkerchief looks like it's a different shade of purple to his tie. That's slightly disappointing but as ever he looks extremely smart all the same.

[Irish Saint]

Was going to start a thread last night on boots and all Stevo stated time had come to abolish the scrum. In its current form I would agree with him.

Saints by six.

[Old Frightful]

Good start by Wire, they're looking impressive. Be just like Saints to score against the run of play though.

[Griff9of13]

Wilkin off already? Planned?

[Old Frightful]

Saints creeping into the game a bit more now and looking the more likely to score.

[MrFussy]

Well done Robes!

[Guest]

I can't understand how he's given that. He dropped it. At no point did he have full control of the ball.

[Griff9of13]

Saints creeping into the game a bit more now and looking the more likely to score.

And they do (though I thought he lost control).

[Irish Saint]

Old Frightful your request is granted..

[Old Frightful]

VR for Roby try, no try surely.

Given but I reckon he lost it there.

[Irish Saint]

I have to agree I wouldn't have given a try.

[DavidM]

Child is off and running already

[Old Frightful]

Wtf was Masoe doing there?

Neither nowt nor summat but plenty of reason to concede a penalty.

[back to the future]

wire doing a lot of holding down

[Guest]

A lot of milking penalties in the match.
