It's certainly possible we COULD beat Saints, this is sport after all, but the odds would be against it. If we are going to get close we're going to have to play better than in the previous 3 games so far, especially re. ball control, penalties, execution of skill.
I'm going to be very interested to see how our pack shapes up against probably the best in the league, and especially what happens in the front rows.
Very much looking forward to the first game at home after this one, which isn't too far away now - would be nice to go into that one at least off the back of a credible performance.
I see in the YEP that the club are definitely still on the hunt for another forward, you would imagine at prop, for this season IF the right man becomes available. We get that prop and there is just an outside chance we might do something this year. Otherwise, you'd like to think worst-case scenario we get them in for 2020, with all our younger players another year more developed, and we're just about there with the rebuild.
