As a complete set of 10 I'd take our first choice lineup over anybody else's at the moment when they turn up to play, and one-eyed clueless Wire fans drunk on success arguing over a couple of the players out of that 10 doesn't change that one iota.

Ah I thought you was talking about those 3 cases.
Also, 10?
Edit: Forwards and subs?

More banter? From what I can gather, with your quote re Saints having the best pack in SL, most other Saints fans think you're even more one-eyed and clueless than we are.

Yes, 10 as in 6 on the park and 4 subs in the modern game. I'd have Westwood and Carvell over Flannery and Clough in a heartbeat, who wouldn't, but that wasn't the point being made. As a complete set of 10 I think I'd marginally take Saints' over Warrington's. The comparison is a bit less equal in the backs though

What's the matter dear? Your bridge getting draughty? Go and hassle some other poor sod with your pointless inanity instead.

There are two players in Saints pack that would get in ours. Roby and Puletua the rest wouldn't get a sniff.

With regards to "inanity", what is the point of having a my pack's better than your pack 'debate'?
To then questioning someone from an opposing view is beyond inanity it borders insanity, as we would surely back the majority of our own players especially from two top teams. The same could be said of a bit of banter with Wigan, but I'm not sure if you would have the same discussion on the Widnes board for example?

| Saints pack so much better that it was totally dominated and we didn't even have two first choice forwards playing.
Go figure

Could have said much the same for our win at your place a couple of months back or have you forgotten that result already?

If you're going to start a debate at least do it from some position of credibility... Dear, dear me...

| Quote Harry Pinner="Harry Pinner"Could have said much the same for our win at your place a couple of months back or have you forgotten that result already?'"
I've learned one thing from these boards, and that is that the old "form is temporary, class is permanent" maxim means nothing to these kinds of people. We lost and were outclassed on the day yesterday which means therefore that every single one of their players is permanently and irrevocably better than every single one of ours. Off days, poor coaching/tactics and lack of contribution from other areas of the field leaving players exposed are all irrelevant as mitigating factors. When the result goes a different way next time then they will disappear. Just leave them to it until then is the best bet.
I should have learned my lesson from arguing similar points with similar knuckle draggers over on the Wigan board but once again I'm guilty of allowing myself to be dragged into the sub-intellectual mire....
