Quote: WarriorWithin "It's crazy reading how easily you write off your own team sometimes. St Helens is a huge club and even in a transitional period have managed to keep pace at the top of the league for the last few seasons. It's not the team of Long,Sculthorpe,Cunningham,Martyn and co but it's still packed with quality and you'll be there or thereabouts again this season.'"
When does the transition start/end. It is coming on 4 years since we won a trophy and 6 years since we won the SL title.
Long left 3 years ago, Cunningham 2 years ago, Martyn 7/8 years ago, Scully 5 years.
It has been a slow decline rather than a complete collapse, but we are a long way from a side that is likely to compete for trophies consistently.
