You are going down Rashad!!: |

| It will be a test of charachter for Foster this, but at the end of the day, the blame has to lie with Potter. When the team was announced with a flank of Lomax, Foster and Dixon you just knew what was going to happen. I could see it, my mates could see it, my dog could see ,my dead gran could see it and if rumours are to believed, the senior players were absolutely fuming with Potter when he announced the team.
You need a coach you respect. I dont for one minute believe he has the full respect of the changing room one bit.

he wouldnt be in team if any of Soliola, Wheeler, Dean, Flannery and Meli were fit - they are not, so we are down to the bones of the squad.
I've not seen the SKY replay, but I assume that Eddie & Stevo were as sympathetic to Saints injury plight as they were to Leeds earlier this year?

Dont think they mentioned it to be honest.
Meli, Flannery, Wheeler, Fa'asavalu, Dean, Soliola, im pretty sure 5/6 of those would be in the first team if they weren't injured.
But we aren't the Whinos so it wouldn't get mentioned.

Wilkin too.
Bottom line is, though, that we had a threadbare squad against Leeds too but went out and played like we meant it. We looked like we didn't want to be there on Saturday - that had more of an impact on the result than injuries.
Poor attitude (with a couple of notable exceptions) and we got what we deserved.

Yeh that's true enough.

| It wasn't particularly relevant. We didn't get beaten by a side outplaying or overpowering us.
Sure the first couple of tries came from our inexperienced duo of Foster and Lomax missing tackles, pretty horrifically it has to be added. Despite Foster being out of position and drowning, Lomax had two one on one tackles that would have shut out the first couple of tries and they just went over him like he was a speed bump.
The majority of the rest of the tries came from stupid individual errors. I can only think of the Gibson and Broughton tries where there were genuine moves put on us. The majority I can remember were from pretty poor kicks that we made totally unforced errors from. Even Broughton's try saw yet another embarassing attempt at a tackle from Wellens.
Despite how shocking we were with the ball, we should still have won that game and even if we were full strength I don't see how that would stop Wellens and Gardner gifting them about 24 points.
