Watching the game closely personally I  think with Sailor it's about systems structure and thus coaching. Who knows what he would have been like under Carty? For me watching Saint last night the difference from them in the first round to now is exactly 'nothing' as they looked confused and disorganised as they did back then. Remember how underwhelmed some were on here about Seizer when he signed (and on what I had seen on his past form in Super League I was concerned myself) but the strength of our current squad is the structures they have been indoctrinated into, they buy into it and understand it, (from Academy to the senior citizen players) and when times are tough they stick to it. Our lot at present play for the coach and his structure and thus each other. If you go to training one of the only thing Cartwright majors on is sticking to the system whilst still expressing yourself. Saint might have a great plan on paper and some good players but they aint buying into it and following it and that's down to the coach. Old boys promoted rarely works out with too many previous allegencies. Its interesting isn't it how imported coaches are doing so well in Super League whilst at Cas, the Giants, Saints and perhaps now Salford, British coaches and promoted ex players club's are struggling, whilst those who bring the NRL mentality and professionalism into our game are doing well. For me, Wellens could be the first coach to go with Brown and McGuire not far behind.   

Are you selling tickets. 

Good prediction. Will you now put all your winnings on them to win at Wembley?

Thought is was a really good game and reffed really well, would be such a difference if the games were reffed like that on a more consistent basis, quick decisions and also no overreactions to big tackles. Hopefully not a one off and this continues.


Warrington have some very good players, Vaughan and Harrison were excellent, and for all the abuse Dufty gets, he is easily one of the best attacking players in SL, add in Wlliams and Walker I don't think the final is a forgone conclusion as some think.

It wouldn't be a sell-out.The neighbours have seen it all before lol.

Two seasons as a coach and Big Sam has already reached two Cup finals. 


Happy Warrington won, because Leigh don't beat Rovers for me, but Warrington are capable.
