I have to say I am delighted with the way our pack performed today given that Graham, Puletua, Soliola and Wilkin all played less than 48 hours ago, given the conditions today and the Bradford pack was fresh after none of them played in the International OriginWilkin was outstanding and was my man of the match sensational display. Big raps to the other forwards aswell. Great shot by Sia Soliola on Mark Herbert!!! Draw a fair result and Im looking forward to the Derby next week.

Wilkin was outstanding, along with Roby.

Playing Friday and then today has made a farce out of Super League! okay Saints have come out of it the better with a draw.[list

Wilkin and Soliola were utterly sensational IMO.

Wilkin yes(he must have played at least 70 mins) but Soliola? how long was he on the pitch?

Jon Wilkin really must now get the praise he deserves. Played 71 minutes at break neck speed, put in some great shots and took a few in return. Great kicking game too 10/10 for me. Outstanding Performance.

Agreed -MOM by a mile

Jon Wilkin and James Roby were superb for us today. Wilkin in particular was superb backing up from Friday. He's been our best player for the last 5 or 6 weeks IMO.

Jon Wilkin was fantastic. In fact, all the players backing up were excellent I thought. I don't agree about Roby though. Overall I thought we were poor really, even bearing in mind the conditions. We couldn't keep hold of the ball when it mattered, we took some daft decisions, tried to play wide when we needed to push forward with ball in hand because it was tippling it down. Kyle Eastmond did score a try though; no way should that have been disallowed. And it was good to see him ranting at the ref again. I think he's rediscovered his fire. Good on Jamie to hold his nerve and win yet another point for us.

James Roby was excellent. He created both our tries, tackled everything and made yards all with a fractured cheekbone!

The 2 big questions are how sore will our forwards be next week?


When will Saints put on sale the new instyle Soliola head gear for the fans to buy?

He kept passing the ball out when he should have been taking it forward. He kept running out of the blind side of the scrum, didn't bother varying it, just did the same thing each time like a machine. Didn't it occur to him that they might figure what his move might be? I found that really frustrating. He also made two errors that cost us field position. Normally he has a great game (except for that stupid blind side move) but while I couldn't doubt his effort, he wasn't on the ball tonight. But he wasn't alone either.

I thought Scarsbrook was brilliant tonight too, always going forward and stealing extra metres where he could.

Perry on the other hand.

Scarsbrook was 50/50 for me, what he did was good, but also what he did was give away a few soft penalties. Diskin had a field day with him at one point.

He played 70, but should have been 60 as he should have been in the bin for the shot on Herbert. He did have a great game for you lot today though.

Makinson looks like a good prospect too - obviously not the best game to jusge a winger on but he finished well for his try.
