Roby could play, but in my mind there is no chance of long being ready.

<-- Sean asleep

I hope they do play,injured players make the task a little easier.

Funny, but harsh.

That centre spot has some competition, as does 2nd row.

And hooker

and halfback.

And Loose forward.

Damn glad I aint picking the team

Just looking around today on the internets, seems to me that everything about this weekends cup games is Saints v Giants, you actually could be forgiven for thinking this was the only game on.

Seems the Meeja has decided which is the more interesting cup tie.

no roby in the saints 19

According to the Saints forum the rumour is he will be in the 17 and Long will drop out.

As I have said before Smoke and mirrors, we'll concnetrate on ourselves and prepare correctly and be in as good a shape as we can.

We'll be up for the game and if we preform on the day we'll win, forget mind games, focus on what we can control, NB is down to earth and will instill this into the team.

Can't believe how much the butterflies have kicked in now!
After watching the first semi-final and seeing the joy and pain in both sets of players and fans has really highlighted the 2 emotions involved on Challenge Cup semi-final day.
Gonna need to sink a few beers now to settle the nerves
