Good to see Joe Wardle back in contention. Whether he'll make the matchday squad remains to be seen.

Thanks as ever, Cokey.

A couple of interesting choices for A Lam in the next 2 weeks with Wardle and Kai back in contention.
Off to bed as it’s a 5am KO for me.
I will be up and watching though.
Safe travels Leythers and I hope the team can focus on the task in hand and stay healthy.

Are you watching it on line VL?

Be an interesting contest. I'm not expecting the win. One thing that is not in doubt is an overly zealous focus on tackles before, during and after the match with whatever ex-Saints players they can find to comment on the subject.

I am watching online NZ.
Have an account with Channel 4 (free) but a VPN is required to watch from an overseas location.

I should have stayed in bed !
But I’ll give them this one. I said to VL Junior right before the start that I didn’t expect much from this game. I do however think it is in some way what we needed before Wembley, and better this week than next against Leeds and right before Wembley. Reality check, and A Lam will have them refocused for next week and then Wembley.

They put in a herculean effort to beat Saints, their heads are buzzing with Wembley and they don't want to get injured. Next week will be the same with a depleted side. Leeds will win easily. Lam will rest as many as he can for Wembley. If we lift the cup in 2 weeks time, these results won't be remembered. It's Wembley that matters.

Was a tired performance today and totally expected , the York game had a hint of arrogance but today was a team full of weary legs and minds.
Not suprised with the 2 interceptions, we play that move week in week out and only a matter of time before it was sussed out.
Led to believe that at least 2 (and will be more ) are moving on next year , Reynolds to Fev and Wardle to Oldham . Good luck to them both

Losing or rather letting Ben go would seem strange, ever present, really stepped up and not the most creative at times but not faulting in defence, and dead eye with the boot won us games on its own, whilst goal kicking you’d imagine is replaceable, his percentage will be high.
But id have certainly thought he’d have a number next season
