I agree pressure is off us and Stains pressure will keep on building especially anymore suspensions or injuries come their way and the best is we beat them in the semi with them having a full team.We can do it once we can do it again.

On another note, Wigan and Saints will now face each other at Wembley for the first time in the women's cup final (got my tickets). I would have had significant worries over this game in recent seasons but, given the manner of Wigan's victory over Leeds on Saturday, I am now thinking this will be competitive, though Saints will deservedly start as favourites. Great progress thus far under Denis Betts and hopefully this will see the big three become a big four in the women's game.

Saw something the other day on facebook that the old Edge Hall Road training facility has finished being renovated now and will be open soon for both Latics and Wigan RL's women to use. Seems Danson is investing in Women's sport and we are starting to see the pay off from that now with the Women's first team, it was a very convincing performance from the Wigan Women on Saturday, much sharper and more organised than when i have caught their games previously. 

Hopefully now they are getting full use of their new training facilities we will see them progress further over the next few years.

The women's team looked great on Saturday - far too physical and quick for Leeds who look to have gone back a step. Wigan were maybe a little behind the curve with on the women's side for a few years but definitely looks like they'll be the team to beat in the coming years now the pathways have come together alongside a handful of recruits.

There were plenty rumours around that Wellens had left Saints. One said by mutual consent.
Nothing of course from the club.
Perhaps we'll find out soon if that's the case.
Today perhaps they'll have their Pressy for Thursday's home game. Normally a head coach slot.
If Wellens does the press conference and is on the gantry for the game then surely he's still in post.
Should someone else do the P.C. then who knows what's happening. 

He's definitely still in post (somehow). Plenty of furore last week but that seems to have died down and he did some press work last week.
