well these last few games has knocked the stuffing out of me, I'll be happy if we get wins against Leeds and Cas at home in the coming weeks, I very much doubt we will be anywhere the top 5 at the end of the season it was good while it lasted

I know what you mean snowie
We’ve not played very well since the Hudds game

I’m a big believer though in momentum at the right time
If we go through a bad patch now I’ve no probs

As long as we start to come good and with consistence when it matters

We can’t be awesome all year

People who called sts invincible need to realise they're trophy less for 5 years. They were invincible last year apparently with Ben the bottler Barba. Wakey were close to doubling them by the way. To say they're NRL standard is laughable any NRL team would wipe the floor with them. To the media brigade who polish they're todgers every week, SL is a garbage comp almost like the mls with has beens and NRL rejects all over even at the top teams.

This Saints team is certainly not the best ever SL team as some people like to think they are.

They're miles better than anything this season though. Especially for sides like hull Cas and yourselves with 6+ players missing.

Maybe the tide might turn come August September October in terms of a shift in form and fitness ?

Maybe not be they are by far the best in this one.
They have hammered most teams this season.

Re: Utter garbage : Sun Jun 02, 2019 9:20 am  

Everyone is correct Saints are by far best team of season. Just over 24 hours agao people were also correct in saying Anthony Joshua is best heavyweight in the world.

Then an over weight no hoper who likes like clogger is his conditioner steps up from no where.

Things ca change very quickly in sport.

That accolade goes to the Saints Team 2006 all conquering version. Quality of Superleague is not a good standard these days. Warrington and Saints are fairly decent and more consistent in there attacking plays.

To be the best ever SL side, they actually have to win the title and then back up their achievement.
There is no doubt that Saints have an excellent squad but, everything is going their way.
Most clubs, apart from Leeds and London, with a fully fit squad, will put a serious challenge against the other sides and Saints have been "fully fit" all season and have had the luxury of rotating their squad.
As we move towards the business end of the season, more clubs will be getting closer to fielding their best 13/17 players and then we can truly judge who the best side is.
Despite their jeckyll and hyde performances, Hull look like they may do something in the cup.
Saints look nailed on for the LLS and the title is still up for grabs, with Catalan, despite their recent thrashing by Hull, going quietly about their business - I wonder if the RFL have a plan on how to fill Old Trafford if they (Catalan) make the final.

I,m not sure if Catalan will repeat there heroics of last season, we beat them putting 50 pts past them with 8 of our players missing, Hull bashed them by 50 pts last week as well. With respect to Bradford and Halifax I think Warrington, Hull and Saints are pretty evens in a one off cup game because we all know current form is not really a major factor.

We've not really had a fully fit 17 this season compared to last season, we have a decent depth of quality squad and not reliant on any particular player like Barba for example. Our big player in Roby has only played 12 super league games I think and has been subbed for a few games to manage his longevity.

All we can say at the moment is that Saints are consistently playing at a slightly higher level at the moment and because of that when they lose a bit of form they may scrape a few wins were last season they would have lost them.

For Wakey the squad depth is a bit more shallow but they are showing great team spirit and the rewards of that will be a top 5 place despite the injury setbacks .A win against Leeds next week would probably kill the rhinos off from having a sniff of that top 5 as well.

The team is hit by injuries...missing your 2 best props and your best half is just back on one hand.

How ever the season ends... this must surely be one of the best in a generation or 2 at least.
If you were offered this 2 years ago...you'd have sold the grandmother for it.

The team is NOT garbage...the hand dealt in this game was poor.
You'll be in good shape for that top 3 position push by summer.
