Half-time, and the summary goes like this :

Manu - liability in both defence and attack
Defence - bloody awful, and paper-thin whenever the ball goes within 20 metres of either touchline
Kicking game - if possible, even worse than last season - no depth at all
Attack - we look as if we couldn't put a man through a gap if the opposition were 13 stationary shop dummies

Woeful. Terrible. Dreadful. Running out of words for it. What the hell has Brown been doing in the close season ?

Dare I say it but never seen Saints play this bad under Royce.

Blimey. What a smear of canine faeces that first-half performance was.

On a positive note, Mike Rush isn't too busy at the moment, at least he knows how to organise the defence.

I've just got in from work, didn't think i'd bglad to miss a game but this sounds awful!

Someone tell me I didn't just see hohaia pass the ball to Patrick to make his try easier. Or just tell me this is a nightmare and when I wake up it'll be saturday morning.

Saints look shocking well done to huddersfield they look really good

What a great try for Huddersfield from the scrum. Really well-worked and skilful. Oh hang on. It was just embarrassingly atrocious tackling by the most shamefully terrible saints side I've seen walk on to the field in more than a decade.

Rogues is gonna have a field day..................................

Saddened will be ecstatic!

40-0. You've been dreadful

Good to see some consistency though. Meli's brainfart gives away easy points again. Well done Francis.

There should be a public apology from the players and coach for this tripe.

At least you haven't been nilled

well at least it isnt 0!
