Please stick to discussing the match in question and do not accuse match officials of being biased or corrupt or you run the risk of being immediately banned from the forum.

Saints have the intensity but not the pace. Warrington have the pace but not the intensity. Saints by 12.

[Thunder Road]

Hard to bet against St Helens...Saints by 12

[Moe syszlak]

Warrington's makeshift pack was enough to beat Leeds, I doubt it'll be enough to beat saints. Not only that, it's further weakened by the apparent loss of Ben Currie who has been in excellent form. 

[Wollo Wollo Wayoo]

Probably the only competitive QF.

Saints by 8

[moorside roughyed]

Wire by 6.

[Liverpool Rover]

This will be the closest of the QFs but Saints at home against a weakened team will be tough to beat so Saints will get a close win.

[WN83]

For as long as the Saints players can be excited to keep defending their way to wins, they'll be extremely tough to break down and I doubt Wire will put enough points on the board. 

Saints by 8

As a Saints fan, I actually think that we are there for the taking if Warrington can compete in the middle due to Saints current lack of pace, with Wire looking much more explosive at times. 
I do still think that we will win but Warrington can really show where they at under Burgess on Sunday and it’s definitely not a guaranteed home win. 

[Exiled Wiganer]

Wire know how to win this - spin it and chance their arm. There’s no tomorrow in the cup, and, if they adopt that approach they will win. Score 20 against Saints and you’ll win.

Easy isn’t it. Wigan should have just scored 20 and they would have been fine.

Dose anyone know which bbc channel the match is on ? Cheers.

Or kept 13 men on the field. Make sure you don’t record over the video.

To be honest our attack is that bad, I'd say 14 is probably enough.

Scoring 14 though is the issue, as our defence, generally is rock solid.

This one could be close. Saints by 2

Surprised the vote is so close. We’ve come up against top 3 opposition twice this year and lost both times. Saints intensity will be too much - but hopefully another step on the road to show Burgess’ Wire are developing and will compete against all. Saints by 8. 

[Snowys Backside]

Warrington will need a plan B to trouble Saints away. If they do this, they have a chance as Wire have the quicker back line. 

[moorside roughyed]

Come on you Wire  

[phiggins]

Players come out and the commentator says “it doesn’t get bigger than this. A challenge cup quarter final…”

Wouldve thought that it’ll get bigger than this in the next two rounds

[ivans82]

Do you not find it strange , that the first thing our " match summarisers " say is that Warrington have to slow the play the ball down........................nor what the new play the ball rules encourage chaps !

Poor commentary

How unlucky is Danny Walker, his clippers running out of battery power halfway through shaving his head. 

[StandOffHalf]

Jiffy seemed really hung-up that Dufty should have jumped to catch - saying it twice.

Odd, only jump when it's needed IMO.
