Some of our forwards need to put more effort in, namely Frank Paul 'the ping pong ball'.

Looks like Marshall is back in, on the wrong side mind. But I think we will win this one. We need to if we want to stand any chance of top 4. I think we can only afford to lose one more game, and even then we will need some luck/help from others along the way.

If that 'one game' is Saints then we have had it.

I think that's why I just can't see it happening now. We'd have a decent chance without Wembley, but the idea of going to Saints and winning a week after the final, and then probably needing to beat Hull the week after seems a bridge too far.

If we win at Wembley and don't "celebrate" then we're in with a shout, I'm still not convinced Saints are anything special, if they do make the most of a Wembley win we've no chance there.
A lot depends how professional they want to be.

On paper I think saints look weak but theyve hit good form and have Barba to come in.I think they will make the top 4.

A lot of us will remember beating Leeds in the Cup Final then going to Wire the week after.
Can't remember the final score but half time it was 25-0 with Briers taking the Mic by dropping a goal when 24-0 up.
Don't think Wire broke sweat that day. I still wonder if they could still smell alcohol on the Wigan players.

Apart from the result that was one of the best atmospheres that the away support have generated. I cant see much of a performance against Saints with a short turnaround.

Well Cas have done us a favour, here's hoping we can put a performance on tomorrow.
Leeds getting their finger out would be nice also.
