Agreed. We were slagging him off in pub before but thought that was his best game for a long time today, on both attack and defence.

Who you kick to isn't the point with Leeds' back line. It's how you kick.

Saints constantly found no mans land. From distance long and deep with a chase of one committed line. Worst case it runs dead with a 20 tap, that's not the end of the world, with all the defence set up on 30m line. From short make it a contest or trickle in-goal.

Is Hohaia injured or just not selected?
If I were Nathan Brown I'd be tempted to put Hohaia to full back and have Lomax & Walsh in the halves.
I think the more times Saints can get the ball into Lomax's hands the better for them.

I still don't see the benefits Wilkin at 6 brings. As a backup for injuries then fine but otherwise I'd far rather have him at 2nd row or loose.

Our kicking game drew criticism from some quarters but the bombs certainly resulted in Lomax taking a bit of a pasting which perhaps nullified his threat a bit. It also gave him fewer running opportunities.

As for Wilkin, I hope your preference is for him to play second row or loose for saints. We do have standards you know

I certainly agree with this.When i saw the team sheet on Saturday i was a lot more confident of victory seeing that Hohaia was not playing given his usual top performances against us in recent times.
