Well, after seeing Saints play 3 out of their 5 so far, I have no confidence in us getting a win on Friday. So I will go with Leeds by however many our defence allows! I'm just hoping that this week they actually remember how to hold on to the ball for any length of time.

[quote:1pqtnbtj]Every player in our squad could probably earn more money with another club. But they prefer to sacrifice a few extra quid in their back pocket to share special memories. And playing at a place like Old Trafford on a night like this makes it all worthwhile.[/quote:1pqtnbtj]

Leeds scored NO legitimate tries last Friday and Wigan were the much better side weren't they?

Friday will be a big test of what we are capable of, but I still think come the end of the season we will be up there. |

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

I never said that now did I.
But there were some serious questions to be asked.

Do you mean questions like “why was Ainscough’s try given when the pass from wee Tommy Leuluai was clearly a yard and a half forward?”
I’ve watched this back several times, I suggest you do too before replying

Compared to our pre-Grand Final performance - absolutely. We're like a team that doesn't know what to do next. However, I could be made to look like a total hysteric on Friday night if they all suddenly gel and discover what to do now the PTB has slowed down! But if they play on Friday like they have been playing so far, you will tear us to shreds (assuming you can get past our defence which, on the whole, is still standing from last season).
I have really no idea whether we will be 'up there' come October. This time last year when we were also somewhat dodgy because I knew the coach and knew the players I was confident, even when we lost to you at about the same time last year, that we would get our act together as the season passed. But things have changed now and so I just don't know.
I've got my ticket though and I will sneak some hard stuff into my flask of warming coffee (it's due to be chilly apparently but dry). That way, I might make it through the trauma of being tonked at home by Leeds! |

Give over.
Saints should be 5 from 5 and only are not due to a shocking refereeing performance from Smith in the second half, despite not playing particularly coherently this season. This doesn't smack of a side who 'don't know what to do next and cant gel due to a slow PTB'.
Saints defence is still strong and if we sort out our ball retention, Friday will be a ding dong. FWIW I favour Leeds due to them looking better right now but Saints aren't that bad.

Meli has gained his Visa and could be in the squad for Saints against Leeds.

Phil Bentham has never controlled a St Helens V Leeds SL Regular Rd fixture so has no form for this fixture.
Bentham with St Helens : SL Reg Rd only
Pl 17, Won 13, Drawn 0, Lost 4
Bentham with Leeds : SL Reg Rd only
Pl 14, Won 9, Drawn 1, Lost 4
