In the post you have quoted I stated Simmons wouldn't risk them for the rest of the season due to pride. The only reason they would be playing is because you're title contenders. Nothing to do with a stupid run of victories.'"
Trust me, you are wrong. I'll got to leave this for now. But I AM right, honest!

So just so we're clear...
You're saying that Saints are 'risking' Wellens & Graham because maintaining this record against Wire and the pride of a local derby is so vitally important to them it's worth the risk?
And that if they were playing Wigan or Leeds they wouldn't take the risk and they'd be left out because there's no 'record or pride' at stake?
WOW!! That is beyond arrogant.

You really should read what someone is saying properly before quoting them and making yourself look like a moron.

| Perhaps, just perhaps if saints wanted to win this so much, they wouldn't risk any players that are injured because they need a fully fit team?! Or maybe saints don't see wire as a threat and are willing to risk fielding a team that is not 100% fit to try and get them back to full fitness. Either way, some of you wire fans need to stop looking for excuses before the biannual drubbing by saints!

Explain how that is any different to what I've suggested he said?

| ermm.. haven't the Saints players openly said in the media (particularly ahead of last years fixture) about how they were driven on by not wanting to be in the Saints team that were beaten by Warrington on their home ground thus ending this run of victories?

read your post... and then read those quotes... and if you still cant figure it out.. well there's not much hope for you is there.
actually i have just been on the leeds forum and I have noticed that most of your own supporters are deriding you as well for comments/knowledge about your own club and players...
so as you were.... your opinion is worth about as much your paper round.

Most of my own supporters are deriding me?! Get a grip pal. The only person who's even replied to the post is Keith and if you're taking him seriously you can't have come across him yet.
In summary...
If any of you are even remotely suggesting (which the whole point of this thread is) that Wellens' & Graham's participation in this match has nothing to do with wanting to beat possible title contenders, and that they are being risked because of pride and the maintenance of a record then you are beyond deluded.

I'll take one for the team lads.
1-WE ARE NOT ARGUING THAT POINT
2-WE ARE ARGUING THE POINT THAT THIS UNBEATEN RUN MATTERS TO THE SAINTS PLAYERS, WHICH ACCORDING TO SEB IT DOES.

Yes. But that was at Knowsley Road.
Fresh start at Widnes. I wouldn't be at all surprised if you beat us on Friday night. Mind you, I wouldn't have been at all surprised if you'd beaten us at any time during the last three or four years. Why haven't you? Seems crazy to me.

I think the "record" means a lot more to us Wire fans than Saints.

Do you know what, I think it means as much, if not more to them.

Reading those examples all in one paragraph ... some of those games must have been awful for Wire fans! You must be a bunch of masochists!

I hope so too. I like the way Warrington play the game. And if the standard of recent years is maintained (the standard of match, not Warrington play!), it should be another fantastic game.

That depends who you ask. It's a bigger fixture for me than the Wigan game as we tend to play the same style of rugby and so the contest is more open and even. Wigan are spoilers and so I just tend to end up feeling frustrated for most of the match! Mind you, it was very good to nick a point from them in Cardiff, especially given the arrogance of their players when they did their pre-match warm up while Cas and Wakey were still playing. But for a few years now I've felt a kind of disbelief when we have won against you lot. 'How did we manage to do that?' has often been the question on lots of Saints' fans lips after our encounters with Wire.

Agreed but there will still be plenty of pride in continuing this run, I would eat my trousers if it isn't mentioned amongst the players in the dressing room before the game to pump them up.

I was stood next to a wire fan for most of those type of matches. Everytime I wanted to hug him at the end xD

They have telepathy nailed down though..... I will give them that one.
When we go out shopping and a nice looking girl walks past us in the aisle, i get a clip round the earhole as soon as she has gone past. She knows EXACTLY what im thinking.
