But then there breaks a yet more glorious day:
The saints triumphant rise in bright array;
The King of glory passes on his way.
Alleluia! Alleluia!

I think we are due a big performance.

With Puletua and others back I take Saints to win Friday and again in the Cup!


RL paper today says TP will be out for 3-4 weeks. Massive loss for us.

Every player in our squad could probably earn more money with another club. But they prefer to sacrifice a few extra quid in their back pocket to share special memories. And playing at a place like Old Trafford on a night like this makes it all worthwhile.

Neither team has played close to as well as they are capable of all season.

Saints put in 25mins against Wire, 30mins against Huddersfield & 15mins on Friday, we have defended superbly so far but with ball retention very poor, Puleta will need to show what he is capable of and cause Leeds trouble.

Leeds looked good for 25mins against a disjointed Wigan side who looked dangerous when they got ball in hand, they finished strongly against a tired but relaxed Manly side, struggled against KR (just as we did) and didn't majorly impress against Celtics or depleted Wakey.

Both have really only been doing "enough" in games so far (we blobbed one) this might be the longer term plan to peak at various points in the season with the top 8 play offs its not urgent to win 46-14 every week and be buggered come August / September...

I think it will be close but win or lose i'm not going to be tearing my hair out (whats left of it) unless we let ourselves down in the game - and even then its better now than in October (again)!! Saints by 4
Nail on the head (apart from the Saints by 4 hopefully).

Leeds have not hit their straps yet which makes this game impossible to call.

Unless, of course, there's some precipitation whereupon your wallflowers go to pot by all accounts :roll:

Leeds by 12. I'm feeling confident about this one coming into it from a good win against Wigan although with Lauitiiti & Kirke being possible doubts i do think we will need some inspiration to come from the bench. Saints will no doubt (and i hope they do) up their game to provide a quality spectacle for all fans!
