Saints has a pretty strong lure as well. Not many players have left Saints voluntarily over the Super League era, Lyon was only ever going to be here for a couple of years, Darren Albert left a bit prematurely, but most others have left on the clubs terms. I see no reason to think that this is going to change in any way in the next few years.

I would imagine it will be Cunninghams direction and decisions from the play the ball that you may miss, not his actual running from there. A similar worry that some Wigan fans have about the loss of Riddell

Correct. That and his presence / leadership I think we'll miss most. The players seemed to visibly lift when KC re-entered the field.

I know we will miss KC on the actual playing pitch - well it's only natural after all. We said that about Scully but we managed. The fact that KC will still be around the dressing room and could even go onto the pitch as a (water carrier lol) will be a big bonus. He will help keep the lads 'focused' and be a big help during a match.

Slipped up a few of you here you could have had me with a Saints badge all next season

I think you have one already the amount of time you spend on here.

Quite interesting looking back now. Most of us, myself included, considered we were capable of a top four finish, provided we kept injury free. That we have finished third with huge injury problems means we have exceeded most of our expectations quite comfortably. Top marks to Royston and the team for a tremendous effort

Seconded.
