Surprised me did that result as Saints looked easily strong enough to win comfortably.
They were missing a few key players notably Walmsley who's a huge miss but arguably just as important their two usual 2nd row starters Batchelor and Matautia who are both key players for me in how they play.
I know they've started well and have looked untouchable up to now but I also think a weakness of there's maybe as a long season goes on having Welsby and Dodd at 1 and 7...both outstanding young players but I just wonder how good they'll be over the course of a full season in two very key positions...
Just shows though if you take a few key components out of any side (Saints included) you can get turned over by anyone in this league. Wonder how good they'd be if they went on a 5-6 game run continually missing 8 or 9 first teamers and having to play a different spine nearly every week!
