We've got a few 50-50s.
We talked about the attitude not being on the mark last week and being determined to get back to where we started the season at. I thought we looked strong with the ball and defensively we were really strong.
It's pinch-yourself stuff, isn't it? ... Statistically it's probably been the best era in the club's history and of course that makes me feel good. But corny as it sounds, I'm honestly more pleased for the players. That's why I do the job primarily and that's why getting to the grand final this year has been the best yet because we've been through some pretty dark times along the way.
The win was as much for the character of the team as the skills we've shown over the last three months.
Whilst we have individuals that do very well it is a team effort and we will share that trophy.
Marcus came and did as well as anybody possible could. I am really pleased for him because he has had no game time. He has not played for three weeks and he is nowhere near fit enough.
We felt that we needed to strengthen the squad ahead. We are getting a player who can cover all the outside back positions and who has a wealth of Super League experience behind him.
I won't know until Thursday, but I'm pretty confident Stanley will be fit.
I don't think anyone could have gone through extra time. It must have been a great spectacle and St Helens played their part, but we know we can play a whole lot better.
