| Saints will pick the lowest ranked team - Hudds. Leaving wigan to once again come to headingly for the final eliminator.
Should be a corker.
Wigan will be provided with extra motivation by the ''injustice'' of last week.
Leeds will be provided with extra motivation by phil clarkes ''rugby gods'' comments, and also the fact they will feel they haven't been given the credit they deserve for the victory at wigan.
Wigan although finishing top are in the same situation as previous years. Coming into the eliminator, away from home, having already played 2 playoff games. But, are a stronger team now.
Don't underestimate or write leeds off. You've every right to be confident, you're away form has been outstanding. But you'll be playing a determined champion team in front of their own fans.
In terms of ''who the pressure is on''. I'd say wigan. Wigan finished top and to not make the grand final from that position would be tremendous failure. Also fallen at the final hurdle the last 3 years on the trot. So theres huge pressure on wigan to crack that nut.
Leeds have won 3 titles on the trot, no one really expects them to make it a 4th and with mcguire and peacock out it compounds that. When you've not won a title in 32 years (04) theres massive pressure. When you've just won 3 on the trot, not so much.
It promises to be a corker after last week and may the best team win, good luck.

To be a champion side, these are the games that we have to win. If we don't then we are not good enough end of. But that said not many would have said that we would be in this position at the start of the season so in many respects there is no pressure on us at all.

What position? Away from home in the FE? that's the same position you've been in the past 3 years. If your fans didn't expect that they were either expecting worse or better, and i don't think they were expecting worse.

there is no chance that saints will choose us over hudds. they want to get to the final, why add the extra pressure of a derby and the last game at KR. we will go to leeds.

You are actually right, I was wrong. Just heard from someone who spoke to the saints chairman. Hudds it is.

| Wigan are not in the same situation as previous years,because they had to win there last seven or eight games to qualify.So could have been burned out by the time we played the semis.

Actually most Wigan fans were expecting no better at all, with some expecting worse. The general view was a top 4 finish we'd be happy with.
Don't know where you get this idea that we've been expecting better, the majority of us on this board this year have been painfully humble in our expectations and chances.

| I disagree, the pressure is on all four teams left in. If a team doesn't feel any pressure they ain't human

Does anyone really expect Wigan to lose?
Leeds have lost their best player Danny McGuire whereas Wigan are getting people back up to match fitness after missing a few games through injury ie Gleeson Prescott McIlorum. We'll also have 4 props this time which we really missed last week. We should have too much for them and we really owe them one after their performance at the DW.
I Just hope Saints let us go to Leeds.

I agree with this point.
Apart from last weeks OTT reaction (in regards to McGuire’s cheating) from a minority of people on these boards, Cherry and White is quite a dignified place to visit.

Yeah well I thought we would win last week and I think the same this week. There is no doubt we have lost something with mcguire been out but it makes us a bigger team and stronger in defence with sini at 6.

you thought the same the last time we play at leeds and then you went missing for a few months after.
Sinfield at 6 is a big blow stop trying to convince yourself any different.

Ah that's what your club are called.
I thought it was 'Ancient and Loyal' according to the badge on your playing jerseys.
Wigan R.L? I'll have to look out for that.
