Kirke was rested on Monday.

Beware Saints he's gunning for ya!

Your kidding? he is a great player, and having a great season, but he was absolutely shocking against Wigan.

I understand he had a better game against Widnes

Definitely our best player. Turner was awful defensively and nothing really came off in attack for him. Bateman murdered him.

Whether Kyle Amor plays on Saturday will be the biggest factor as to whether we can win or not. If he doesn't play, I don't see us having the firepower to down Leeds on their own midden. If he plays and in tandem with Walmesley gets us on the front foot early then we've got a chance.

I must not have done, as I thought Lomax was really poor.

But then again, don't forget when I said Turner had a good game I was talking about attacking. When you pointed out defence I double checked to the stats, which as I said show he was the better of the Saints backs in this regards.

Personally, I think because of how good a player Lomax is, and home grown, Saints fans may well have a little of the rose tinted specs when it comes to his true performances. You are not alone, we have them here with Leeds players also.

In the Wigan game, lomax was outstanding in attack, but very poor in defence. He was incredibly laboured moving to cover at full back for at least 2 of the Wigan tries - he should of snuffed them out long before Wigan got any support to the ball carrier.

That said lomax has been generally one of our best players this year (so has jones, but for some inexplicable reason is always over looked by the saints fans)

Welcome to Southstander, we all have similar issues with gotcha, bless his cotton socks.

Really looking forward to this game.

Just out of interest, where do you get match stats from?

Looking forward to this and with 2 games against the Pies plus an away trip to Cas Vegas in there aswell this will imo be the toughest period of our season outside the play offs.
Its the CC Leeds v ST's & imo form goes out of the window I just hope we play better than we did at LP with the ball especially.
I'm going for us by between 4/7 points.

Squabbling between the collection of class in our three quarters....

Classic Southstander

I agreed, I just thought he wasn't good in the Wigan game, and especially defensively.

Your right on the quote, apologies for that.

This sentellins team will certainly take some stopping in their relentless pursuit of yet another CC.

I probably look forward to saints games more than any other due to the friendly rivalry and chilled out supporters. Hopefully saturdays game will live up to expectations.

Saints are more than capable of shutting down leeds 3/4's. Saints halfbacks and pack is better. Saints 3/4's aren't too shabby either. What's the bet theres another Makinson special in the corner, 4ft off the ground this time, sending Jonathon davies into raptures.
