80mins from the Grand Final is not quite 2 Challenge Cup finals at Wembley now is it?

I am not one to enter into tit for tat arguments and I have been impressed with Wigan this season. But you do leave out the fact we have won back to back silverware and we beat you at home. Very convenient.

And i'll add a loss to Leeds at home to the above list, yeh thats impressive back end of the season form and form worthy of potential grand final winners.

Only good points to take from the game was the first 14 mins and the fact even with 50% less ball we only let in 4 tries with 1 coming with a major slice of luck, the killer parts were the 2 knock ons when we should of built pressure first Harrison and then Solomona, then the last 5mins of the first half having something like 20 play of balls to Saints 40 but still only 10-8 down to 18-8 with a few mins before half time and then 20-8 from silly play after the restart, we just didn't play smart enough to get a foot hold back in the game and Saints did an started slowly added to the points total at every chance.

Cunningham's try in first half opitomised the current issue we have whenever we play Saints. Dont get me wrong, they're capable of scoring sensational tries, similarly to ourselves. Yet from memory, it seems that most of the tries they score against us seem to be a result of our lacklustre defence, rather than a reward for their skill and effort.

When you watch us in the final at Wembley, we bullied Leeds defensively. Yet on Friday, we didn't even get close.

The one promising thing though, based on the Wire side Ive witnessed this season, is that we do have the mental strength to turn it around. I wouldn't be suprised, with weather permitting, if we handed Huddersfield's ar$e to them on Saturday evening. And will we please get Mona's back to 9 asap for godsake! As a couple have eluded to, get Bridge in at 7 if necessary!

And finally, as for Saints, I still cant see us beating them anytime soon. They remain a step above in big matches I'm affraid. And credit to them!

I see us a step below.

It is a mental step.

Can you hear me now? Do you still think Warrington can win it but Wigan can't?
