The things I have seen so far under Mike and Kieron that have not been there previously have been passion, aggression and determination.
I don't think we should have any doubts about Good Friday because over the past two games Saints have;
1. Outplayed the superleague and world club champions.
2. Beaten the in form team that came from behind to beat Wigan last week.
If Saints can produce the same explosive start by the forwards on Good Friday and back it up with some expansive flair in the backs coupled with some pure grit in defence I can't see any reason as to why it won't be six points from three games and a great end to what was a poor thread of six.

We had the ability to grunt out wins in those games that we lost, but grunting out wins was not very effective.

I went to the Huddersfield game and although it was close and so we could have won it, we offered very little attacking threat from any part of the field, we got lucky with the Lomax try had it been on TV it may not have been given.

But we went from awful in the hull game to quite average in the Bradford game - not really the improvement that should be praised IMO.

At Huddersfield we may have been unlucky, but IMO they were just as bad as us in that game so it's hardly (again) something to point out etc.

Big difference since Royce left? Summed up by Rushy:

"it's hard to be critical when you are asking them to push the ball and take chances"

Playing in the Saints way again, and about time.

I think rush is playing his part in the way we are playing since he and KC took over. I'm good friends with some saints lads and asked them what had changed.

Rush had changed the defensive pattern and gone with one that the players feel much more comfortable.

Also, he's give them a more free role and introduced more options for the halfbacks in the form of runners.

Notice how we not standing quite do deep either ,
