Pretty excited already but saints will be a hard team to beat. they are however nervous i reckon with lots of kidology about injuries and illness. they will still have a team of internationals out there on Sunday.
To win we will have to play better than we have all season. 100% for 80 minutes. No silly penalties and no unforced errors.
Lets make semi final day Claret and Gold day.

This promises to be a real cracker.
A lot of Saints fans I know are backing you to beat us and win the cup, which for yourselves and the good of RL would be grand, however, we do have a record to chase.
A proper physical game is on the cards, and I really can't wait!

I'd say that pretty much sums up what we have to do. Really looking forward to this - we're due a win after 2004 Semi and 2006 final!

Saints certainly won,t be nervous about the game but will respect any team that has reached a semi final.
I reckon to beat us you will have to play your best game of the season as you mentioned for the full 80 mins, because saints will carry on playng up to that last second.
The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you. Welsby-Dodd-Simms-Eaves-Rizzelli, not Eastmond...the future is coming.
As long as we give them a game, unlike 2004, then i will be happy.
We, as a club are in a far better position than then when we went into that semi as a very inexperienced club when it came to big games etc - the players we had hadn't much experience of the big games either and Saints just blew us away.
This time we are up there and seen as geniune challengers - i cannot wait !!

Set to be a cracker.
The injuries aren't kidology - we'd not send a weakened team out against Wigan just to lull our semi final opponents into a false sense of security - those Millward days are well gone!
Should be a real brutal affair, and I really hope that this semi produces the eventual Cup winners.
Cant wait for Graham Vs Crabtree............ & Mason & Griff & Jacko! That should be fantastic! I love our forwards atm, i really do hope Griff and Jacko dont leave at the end of the year, big and British, what more could we want?
