To be fair to Manu, he is an attacking player who in a good side will be a big asset, I've always rated him since he was at Cas, the players to really blame are the established ones Roby, Wilkin, Wellens, Meli etc, absolutely no sign from any of them that they have been St Helens players for years.
I said on our board that its far too early to write you off yet, but as bad as you were, Hudds were really very good.

he played for wigan i guess?
and dont ask about robinson etc. all clubs have stupid fans, not just us

I agree that the lack of pack success limited the half-backs' options, but it's too simple to suggest they're blameless. In one key area, they were woeful, and it had nothing to do with the pack. Once again, our kicking game was terrible. Not only did it have no direction, but it had no length either. If the pack is being knocked back, and we're struggling to make progress, then the kicking game becomes vital, and the half-backs need to get us out of there with the boot. Yet time and again, the Huddersfield back three were fielding the ball on the full, on their 40m line. That's just rubbish.

In the second half, yes. But not in the first.

Yes, because we were kicking the ball from inside our own 20m for the majority of the game. Besides, Wilkin seems to do the majority of our field kicking anyway, so most of the blame has to be placed on his shoulders.

The new rules don't help, and forces kickers to stand a lot deeper than they would normally to prevent the risk of a charge down.

He used to play for Wigan, it's a good enough reason to boo someone
