Agree . Leeds are going to be fresh as daisies come the back end of the season.

Saints will need to rotate players to limit burnout

Not sure we have the depth of squad to do that? I think ourselves and Leeds could stratech away from the rest of the league and if that occurs then hopefully we can see a good amount of rotation

We have to have faith in our young players. They are in the first team squad for a reason.

Luckily if we're struggling through injuries we also have cap space to bring a player or two in to cover.

I'm massively excited by the young crop coming through but we cannot put too much on them too early.

most undeserved leaders? i think so. Saints have been no better than the likes of hudds or hull kr. Same old stains, i've got used to it now, play awfull but come away with results - sign of a good team i suppose.
