The reports of RL's demise have been greatly exaggerated.

Superb entertainment

So we get a set restart, then as Widdop tries to PTB he's impeded and we get a penalty - so why isn't the Saints player sinbinned for committing 2 quick fire offences ?

God I’ve not enjoyed a game this much for ages.Williams showing why he’s on mega bucks.Class.

That's been fantastic to watch, we have been getting no change out of their slowing tactics at the ruck so the lads have been brave enough to play around it and have been rewarded. Superb half of rugby and the team that have showed up to spoil are down at half time.

I really feared the worst at 10 down and saints having all the ascendency.

Williams is going to be a terrific signing, I hope he sees out his career at wire. Could be a club legend.

Yep ... this is a great game of rugby.
Saints forwards are so good but we are looking lively with ball. It is a different world from some games.

Wonderful, and the Williams try was a thing of real beauty.

Has the Union coaches presence made the ref forget which code we're playing? I'm astounded St Helens have been allowed to get away with some ridiculous holding down. I'd be confident of thinking he'd forgotten what a penalty is entirely if he hadn't given that one at the end. Some absolute class from us to get back into this game.

Agree with this, loads of messing and spoiling tactics in the ruck. We should probably have been awarded 4 or 5 more penalties IMO.
