You should take up coaching - I didn't realise that the sole purpose of the standoff was to kick the football - that probably where Fittler and Thurston are / were going wrong. Personally I thought they were there to guide the team around the park - silly me.

As for tosh - Widnes in the CC when we fell apart, was after Roby was sent off and Lance went to hooker. As for Hull Gasky came on for the last 20 minutes and Lance went to hooker again. Apart from the Wigan games we have on the whole been performing very well in the halves - despite the fact that Scapegoat 2012 has been playing stand-off for the majority.

Good result for us from the Hull-Hudds match. With Hull winning, we are two points clear of the next batch. Hudds/Leeds/Hull are now all on 22 points, although Hull have a game in hand.

Hull are in their period of tough matches now so they might drop a game or two. If we can beat Huddersfield next home game we might open up some points space with the teams below us. Catalans are going into a tough period as well, can see us being on equal points right up to the last couple of games.

Hull and Catalan have to play each other 2 times quite close together because of the game that was post-poned at the start of the year.

You'd expect Catalan to win the game in France but at the KC, that may get turned around. Which would be good for us. We need Catalan to lose a game, to let us have our destiny in our own hands when we come to play them. Same for the Wire.



It's getting to that squeaky bum time and teams will in the top 8 will be taking points off each other here and there. This weekend has been close to perfect for Saints results wise. I did not expect Wakey to over turn Catalan. But once we have played Catalan and Wire, from a terrible start we could be in an even better position than we were at this point last year.

edit: forgot Wire and Catalan play each other next week. It's a win win for Saint that one, who would we rather lose?????

I seem to recall predicting you'd get back into the top 4 when you were all VERY doomy and gloomy.... I wish I'd been wrong...
