Pleased for tomkins
As for saints they were awful to watch, the ruck was a shambles, glad they finally got punished for it.
Saints might find themselves out of the top games gor a couple of years, Roby retired, makinson, percival and walmsley getting older and less effective, also I don’t rate Dodd and Lomax is slso getting older. They won’t balls the transition up like we did but it will still affect them
I think they'll be pushing very hard next year. No team that beats Penrith in OZ is going to fall away anytime soon. They might be ultra professional spoilers, but they have simply evolved to suit the way the game has gone in this country. At the end of the day they went out on their shield in a very close contest. Glad Catalans won and even pleased for Tomkins. If we can follow through on two if three significant signings post Croft, we'll be we'll in the running. Could be a really fierce battle at the top of the table in 2024. About time.
