Quote: Northampton_Saint "I thought Flannery had his quitest game in a Saints shirt in a very, very long time actually - you could hardly even tell he was on the field
I know it was great, usually he cocks up so much I just blame everything on him. I think he has finally found his best position (on bondi beach working on his tan).

I was trying to think of why I was feeling a little happy at half time even though we were 22-0 down. Then it came to me, Flannery.

He is my Meli. Come to think of it what will happen when Meli retires and we lose a big game. Some people will be completely lost for a reason why.

Quote: No1 Saint "Yet he managed 10 SOO appearances . Must say that I never saw anything from him that would justify this but 10 is no fluke.'"

I have no idea how he got 10 SOO appearances, but he has certainly lunched out on it ever since. How many good games did he have in his time at Saints? I can think of 1. Whilst I never doubted his commitment and effort, it certainly wasn't matched by any skill or ability. I have no problems with solid players in the squad. Clough springs to mind. But wasting a quota spot on a player who is nothing more than solid is ludicrous.

Quote: BackrowSaint "Swift is a half, yes.'"

After the first two rounds of SL I think we could all do with a swift half.

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif

From Browns comments, it looks like he see's the side as more of a work in progress. He knows the attack is bad, but so long as we can defend he's not overly concerned at this stage of the season.

Pretty much word for word Pete Gentles take on our early season. Doesn't bode well for a free flowing specticle though does it. Still, looking forward to my first taste of Langtree Park hospitality.
