Lose 1 league game in 9...inevitable slide towards 5th!? When we have 2 games in hand against Wakefield and Widnes, where (Hopefully) wins will put us in 2nd?

Sometimes I wonder if logic and brains missed a few people..

Sounds alot like a Keith eve post

I had a right brains trust stood near me in the South Stand, sounded just like the description of The Specials from the coach journeys.

Think I need to start going to the North Stand instead.

Its just individual errors costing us I mean what was zac hardaker thinking, and I think it was danny bottled catching that loose ball !!, clear momentum changers.

As I have stated previously , at the moment we don't seem to have any balance in the side we are painfully slow in moving the ball out wide. Burrow is running across the line so when the centres get the ball they are virtually stood still.
Hardaker obviously had a shocker, he will learn from that, i am beginning to worry about Mc Guires lack of pace also sinfield seems out of sorts. I am mystified that there is not a winger in the club superior to Vickery, whilst I know he did not get a running chance he is woefully short of pace. He was left trailing for one of saints try's by the centre and wingman.
Anyway it's one defeat and not the end of the world,Wigan and Hull will be in anticipation of victories lets hope we can turn both of them over.

I'm sure we said this last season


And in 2011....

true!!

It seems more like L4L than AP to me.

I'd have to watch it closely again but didn't Hardaker end up getting the ball to touch the try-line while still in possession. Not with the first movement which was clearly back into the field of play as intended but as he was forced back in to his own in-goal area by the defenders.

If (and it's only an if) the ball did touch the whitewash with Hardaker still attached what should the ruling have been ?

I trust the impartial video - [sizeI'm not a Saint's fan really[/size - referee got the ruling absolutely correct with all the HD quality, slow-mo and the like at his disposal but if he erred that could make for an interesting conversation with the new referee's controller.

Rugby League is a simple game make far more complicated by people who think that its some sort of science project.

Is that because of their quest to have as many aliases as possible?

But he lost possession! It would have been ok had he been putting the ball down on the line at the other end of the field!!

No, those are the geeks who sit down at the front of the science classroom with their hands up at every question because only they know the answers, the aliases in their heads tell them that they know more than the science teacher because they read a book about it once, but in reality the contribution they make is minimal and often worthless, often the aliases in their heads become real people - thats when the illness has kicked in and they can often talk to two or three other people inside their own heads.

Bad night at the office..... I would be more worried if i was a Stains fan....
