| In terms of Saints they as a club are the best over the SL era. They have consistently been in the playoffs, usually top 2 and have more silverware than anyone. A real credit to the league. As far as the current team, I don't think it's as good as previous versions, but with the quality in SL declining they've managed it better than everyone. You can only beat what's in front of you

Aye. I heard someone say they were now going for 5 in a row but I thought they already had that!

| Quote: Clearwing "A few thoughts.
Firstly congratulations to saints. Pretty much better across the park. If we had to lose I'd rather we did it going down swinging in the way we did. At least we walk away knowing that the rubbish during the build up didn't affect the outcome.
I know there's a lot of optimism but I suspect next year might look like a step back rather than a step forward. Our end of season has been a fabulous turnaround. Even the most parochial saints fan would admit that some of last night's goal line defence was good, hurrells try excepted. That epitomises what Rohan has brought to the group. Is it sustainable through an entire season? No. Or if it is, I've never seen it done. We need reinforcements otherwise we'll only see a toll in injuries and suspensions arising from the desperation needed to halt bigger, stronger men.
I also question whether our spine has the quality needed to lead us to the big prize. Big question marks over 6, 7 & 9 for me. Good enough for a top 4 side, definitely. But title winning? Given it's what we have, Smith has to elevate their collective level. Which in fairness he may be able to do, given thi will be his first preseason to work with them. My worry is that next season is a reversal of this, i.e. start like a house on fire only to fizzle out like a damp squib.
Despite immediate concerns over next year I remain optimistic. The end of this season has seen players and fans alike regain their pride. I've been to a lot of grand finals and while I've heard victorious fans make a lot of racket, I've not heard fans of a beaten team equal ours last night. That has been brought about by the players, good, bad and indifferent, and the coaches. It's been a memorable ride.'"
Great post this - thought your fans were magnificent throughout.

| Who did he make dangerous contact with?
Looks like he`s playing for the Knights in their friendly then.
Or maybe they will ask if he can turn out for us against NZ as a gesture of goodwill.

He knocked someone over just after they passed the ball, might have been Martin or Bentley. A nothing incident in a sea of nothing incidents, but I guess they felt they had to given the events of last week.

| Credit to saints they have turned things around after the Cunningham debacle. They are the finished product, we are still work in progress. In such a high intensity game we don’t have the strength in depth saints have. Still it was an enjoyable end to the season, with the wins at Catalan and Wigan a bonus after the early season disaster.
Not certain about the squad for next season, however we should be around the top 4. Suspect Warrington will be strong next season .

Which would make it even more ridiculous.
The MRP sign off the season with yet another emabarassing head scratcher.
