That scrout bag twisting Golding ankle and only got 10 minutes. Your coach and team are a cheating disgrace.

As I say, think about it.

Much, much harder than you have been doing so far.

I love beating Leeds more then any other team because they just have a huge portion of fans that are so one eyed it’s untrue.

Had a truely lovely night stood with them last night. They talk and talk and talk at you all night but my gosh, they were quiet when the drop went over and when the final whistle went I turned round and they’d already gone.

well Saints have just gone to Yorks and lost.
Surely going to Leeds and winning (regardless of how well we play) is a sign of improvement from last season, when we were consistently out of the top 4 throughout the year.
And even if our attack stuttered, we showed guts, determination and a solid defence; which are pre-requisites for a top 4 team.
Glass half full lads.
Sets up the Fri game vs Cas very nicely indeed (espy with Escare to come back after a good Reserves showing)

Hi but will he give Powell a rest are do you think he will get suspended for that tackle.

I’d say penalty and sin bin about right to be honest. I’d be surprised if he was banned but with the RFL you just never know.

Re: Leeds away : Sun Apr 15, 2018 6:39 pm  

I’d like to think it would be sin bin sufficient, I don’t think there was much in it to be fair. Definitely a penalty and a sin bin but it doesn’t warrant a ban surely.

In fact, surprised no one has really talked about Farrell in terms of man of the match when he's made 48 tackles and 152 metres in a game that was all about the arm wrestle. Not sure how long they played, but Tautai and Navarette's stats are underwhelming.

8 players with over 100 meters. Great effort.

Both Leeds and Wigan were awful in this game. Unfortunately for us, Wigan were less awful than Leeds and deserved to win. All of those blaming the ref for Leeds loss need to remove their rose-tinted specs. As for those accusing Wigan of cheating, whilst we need to rid our game of this behaviour, every team is guilty of behaving like this as much as each other.

...with the exception of Melbourne Storm as they have Billy Slater.
