Very good win for London, they are a tough side to beat, especially at home.

Saints can now afford to lose a few to be fair with there position, it looks like Holbrook has learnt his lesson from last season and is playing it smart with rotation.

Holbrook has been rotating his team players since Easter Monday, I think it was only last week against Wakefield he near enough put out his first choice 17. Yesterday it was individual errors from sone inexperienced players that coughed up the ball, once London Broncos saw that then they kicked up a very good performance in the second half and didn't give Saints much to build on.

The attitude of London has to be applauded, they haven't given in to the "relegation favourites" narrative and fight tooth and nail for each other. Bravo Broncos!

On reading it back my last post may have come across as patronising/condescending it certainly wasn't meant to.

Correct, yesterday was the first time it backfired. When you rest some of the best players in the league in their positions, then you risk a poor, disjointed performance. London played well and deserved the win. Top by 4 points and a couple of home games coming up against sides I imagine we will see a backlash against and beat comfortably. Likely this will be a meaningless game come the end of the season.

In the post match interview, Ward said they had been practising golden point scenarios in training throughout the week. Hows that for confidence before playing top of the league?!

London do not deserve to go down. Obviously the bottom side will be relegated and it could be London .
But I admire their team ethics , Determination and never say die attitude . Wardy is doing a great job .

I agree they have taken their wins well and not been the pushover in defeat too.

I think that they have got their future in their own hands with the sides they have to play and with each shock win they pull off their chances of staying up improve.
