S Tomkins : Wed Feb 19, 2020 9:56 am  
Whinos fan here.
The lad looks back to his best this season. Brilliant player.
Do you think he was allowed to leave too soon?
Are the Marquee players he was replaced with any better?
I'm genuinely interested......

He wanted to leave. Personally I'd have kept him and he would still be the England/GB #1

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.

I’d love to have had him as our 7.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

Yeah by a mile too. Can't believe the likes of Widdop and Ratchford were picked ahead of him......

At the time I was worried about investing so much in someone with such a poor injury record. In hindsight we would have been better keeping him on. That's true on the field at least, I can't imagine it would have helped us businesswise (we already made a loss even after getting him off the books).

Players like Sam put bums on seats and win trophies.

It's a nice theory about big names increasing ticket sales but realistically I don't think that happens for us. We just signed the reigning Man of Steel and another big name marquee player yet attendances and season ticket sales appear to be static. Granted if he had helped us make a final, that would have helped financially.
