Saints Resting all players! : Fri Apr 22, 2022 10:57 pm  
Why is it that whoever in charge of Saints there is always a game or 2 where the entire team is "injured" Is it a tactic to gain momentum to the play offs :READING:

They are free to do whatever they want. It’s their choice and their risk.

It may pay off in long run or it may not. Other clubs can do the same if they want, what’s the issue?

That’s because we are expected to have 6 in the England team. Hanley confirmed it.

I think there’s a rule of a maximum of 6 from each club.

Mate, no disrespect but if Saints have 6 in the England team come June, I'll eat my hat*


Bakes very small hat made of cake just in case :D

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

I enjoyed the game, I thought the young Saints lads gave their all and did themselves and their club proud. Cas overplayed a little at times though and really should have won with more.

If Dodd wouldn't have been injured, they'd have easily made it

Walmsley
Welsby
Percival
Makinson
Knowles

Wonder if Roby would be in there with the WC at the end of the year.

But Dodd is injured for starters.

I'm not saying they won't be selected. I'm saying that, depending on Saints' situation at the time and injuries etc, they won't all play.

I'll be interested to see, if Saints have less than 6 involved for England, whether they'll allow Paasi or Mata'utia, for example, to represent the All Stars.
