I’m assuming you haven’t watched it back? You’ll likely feel a bit silly about this post once you have. Was a bad tackle and Simm was legit rattled and showed the effects for the rest of the match, barely being able to move his arm. There is a ban incoming for Cust. Not sure if it’ll be the whole season, but 3 games wouldn’t surprise me.

Would zero surprise you? It’s a man’s game not tick and pass.

Don’t disagree there, that got an involuntary laugh out loud from me due to how ridiculous it was. Hope he’s ok, that looked like a deep, nasty cut.

Pie_eytor saying it wasn’t over the horizontal is confusing me. Must be talking about a different tackle

You must be talking about a different tackle to me too. The one you are on about didn't exist. Just Saints fans clamouring for any feeble excuse because they can't hide behind how bad their squad is past the 17.

Well done for the win but what tripe about a bad squad.

Somebody is forgetting how poor you were with the ball in attack with fewer injuries in the backs last year. . . . .

I guess we’ll see how rubbish our squad is come the play-offs.

Congrats Wigan.

Some tremendous defence and took your chances well when they arrived.

We played with our usual effort, I was actually pretty proud of how we kept plugging away, but we simply didn’t have the bite to break you down. Wigan could focus on targeting Lomax and Welsby in the knowledge that nobody else was likely to do anything. And Wigan did that very well indeed.

Fair play to Peet again. Until next time!

Obviously I'm very happy with the win but I don't think you will make as many mistakes and not convert your half chances once the playoffs commence irrespective of how many of your backline are missing.
Our passing still isn't as crisp as it can be and with Tommy and Havard back I'm pretty confident that we can improve on last night's performance too.
Hopefully we will meet in the final but if one us doesn't make it I would not be too surprised.

We were bad last year full stop.

I think the poor attack was more to do with Lam and Hastings rather than injuries.
Last year we weren't even as good as appalling.

Yep, suddenly Ellis looking at risk of losing his place. Overall I think he’s done ok this year but compared to Cooper & Havard he seems a way off.

Can only be healthy to have that kind of competition amongst the props and it’s becoming a real problem for our rivals.

Mago on last night’s performance.

Pretty surprising, aye. I’ll give one thing to the match review panel, their inconsistency makes them harder to predict! All in the name of entertainment I suppose

Don’t imagine there was any chance of Knowles/Sironen playing on Monday anyway, good for a giggle though
