Largely agree. I thought the early lead actually did Saints few favours as they went expansive on a night where their execution wasn't great and while Leeds still had plenty of defensive juice left in the tank. I felt they'd have won more easily had they played with better control. Matters little as they were comfortably the better side either way.
This has happened a few times this season where we have started like a whirlwind then tried to play too fancy and the opposition back in the game.
As you say they need to get the game won then the fancy stuff can come in the last quarter.
Understandably they are missing Roby's experience in the middle.
Smith is doing well for a youngster but they are big boots to fill
