Quote: St pete "Biggest game if the year? Are you serious? It's a nothing game. It's a friendly. Win or lose we get nothing.

We didn't even qualify for the the series did we?

I'd rather have took two points at Salford last week than a win against the roosters in a friendly.'"



Huge game for the club, for the players, and for the fans.

To play against the NRL clubs is the greatest test, why wouldn't anyone want it?! Truly astonishing!

If the feeling of beating Salford is greater than beating any NRL team, then you my friend, have no clue whatsoever about rugby league!

Mugwump mocking mental illness for a second time - "You are mentally ill and I can't indulge your madness any more" Utter disgusting abusive remark from a keyboard warrior:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_44308.gif



Quote: Mugwump "I don't think holding this fixture at this time of year helps anyone. It's invariably cold, wet and miserable. I'm not saying it's impossible to play good rugby but I don't recall too many people celebrating SL in the opening six weeks.'"


The aussies scored some good tries ?

Maybe play it in October when the weather is better icon_lol.gif

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



Quote: Dux "It was a painful weekend for SL, but one from which it can learn. Obviously there are plenty of deep-seated reasons why we have an inferior competition, and they're going to take a hell of a lot of working out to get right. But we can pick things up that will help to improve us. The thing that jumps out most obviously from this series is the way the NRL ballplayers have multiple options on pretty much every play, even when the play is a simple hit up. It's a pretty simple thing that we've obviously lost sight of in this competition, but it puts considerable pressure on defensive decision-making (pressure that our sides weren't able to withstand) and makes it very difficult for teams to commit numbers into tackles. If Saints can take a lesson from that and start running in twos and threes then the whole thing will have been worthwhile.'"



Totally agree.

If we want to grow as a sport then international fixtures are the way. With France being decades away from having a competitive league the only option open is Australia.

The only people is really helps are the Aussie teams,Brisbane said it helped them last year and this year It was said it was valuable to the Roosters to in getting prep done.

The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you. Welsby-Dodd-Simms-Eaves-Rizzelli, not Eastmond...the future is coming.:Dwarfs, Gnomes, Halflings/GNOME2.JPG

I think the 3 Oz teams said they had built the event into there training patterns and the weather wasn't much of a problem. I should imagine its easier to train at a constant 80 degrees then play a game at 50 degrees, than train at a constant 50 degrees and play a game at 80 degrees.

Oh dear. After all these years and the obvious failure of the Salary Cap it still has defenders on this board. You couldn't make it up. d040.gif icon_biggrin.gifOH: icon_lol.gif

As for Saints at the moment, you are a very average side but the standard in SL has slipped so far that with better coaching I think you could be in with a real chance of winning something. Thanks to the SC you don't have to be good to win a trophy. Not sure I understand the despair on this issue, just replace KC with say a talented young Aussie assistant coach looking to prove himself at head coach level and you'll be ok.
