Yeah, perhaps it's a relief for Wigan? I mean, if he loses his head (pun intended!) in a league game against a side of relative newbies, how would he have coped in a pressure scenario such as a cup final!?

Now Matt you are being silly, Dupree has played in all the big games.

Surprised with the Dupree one perhaps its Cullen getting Cooper a game.

The funniest thing I read about this was a tweet from a Wigun fan accusing Wires of corrupting Sam Powell into cheating.

The club in world rugby with a history of the Worlds grubbiest no9s accuses us of corrupting players. Textbook definition of irony.

Can you highlight that mate, I cannot seem to find the comment you are referring too.

The match will be refereed differently on Saturday mate.

If I wasn’t reading it I’m not I’d believe it but over on friendly Redvee they don’t think Dupree should be banned which stuns me given the hatred of Wigan. I use the word hatred because some of the words used on that site will make your toes curl. Oh nearly forgot its conspiracy time again they bleating that half the Catalan team did not get bans.

Believe me, despite their supposed hatred of Wigan and how small and inconsequential we are, the vast majority of Saints fans will be cheering on Wigan on Saturday.

Neither of them are huge losses as others have stated, I'm just pleased justice was done and just hope it doesn't add to Wigan's motivation. They still have a very strong squad!

Matt, I don’t want to sound patronising mate but, have you ever played rugby league?

Of course they are big losses. At senior level you have attacking combinations and defensive patterns that players fit into, and develop during the season. When you bring in a replacement it takes time to perfect those things. It is no coincidence that both Wigan and Warrington have improved as the season has developed and they will continue to do so as they play more matches, injuries and suspensions permitting obviously.

The only thing I know mate is that all finals are refereed differently, much less whistle than a normal league game with the officials more likely to let the game flow.

It must be awful to be a Saints supporter this weekend.
