Credit where credit is due – Saints showed the best defensive effort I think I seen in a long time – the Pies threw all they had at your lads tonight and they stood up well.

Wigan played some of the best football they’ve played in a long while with the added bonus of Thaler being more than generous towards them, taking the two points at JJB was no mean feat.

Congrats.

WTF ?

We have one Leeds fan with a Saints avator and one Leeds fan with a Bradford Bulls avator ?

It says bradford dulls

Surely defending like that after a really tough game at leeds 4 days ago shows our class. Not surprising they were tired wello's not had any sllep all week

Worst i think we are going to see Saints play all year.

Defence was awsome, in attack we were blunt, un co-ordinated and basically just in the "erm whack it" mode.

Wilkin was great last week, not so good this. Leon is a tough one because he did score the winning try but was very in the background other from that.
The pack was suprisingly dominated i think especially the props. Clough was our MOM without doubt, keeping the ball in the air when the fat man was going over

Wellens had a few dodgy moments but solid as ever. Meli was the better of the wingers. Ade had a shocker unfortunately but did take the ball in well. Solid centres and Arnold, WOOSH. Fantastic son apart from the rushing out

Thats what i thought anyways

Our goal line defence was good, as was our scrambling defence..missed far too many tackles around halfway for my liking though, and a more clinical team would have punished us for that. Played too much one out rugby in attack IMO, when we used the space we scored. I think we showed the results of the Leeds game tonight.

I like this. This is good. It neatly sums up our attacking style tonight.

A lot of errors for both sides, but I'm happy for St Helens.
That Roberts lad was very good for the Strike Breakers though. Good kick from the touchline to get that goal from him. Get in there and bid for him.

Great game, great work and well done to the Saints, any job well done against Wigan & Leeds is mighty fine in my book


I say great game, there were moments when thought it was Celtic V Salford
