Aye, both in the back row and the centres.

More than they thought they would i imagine. He seems popular in oz sor far, riled Mason and then completely outclassed him on the pitch.

Still dont think we are playing to potential at all. We could be smoother in attack, defence has been awesome. We didnt play well at wigan, but defence wins you games

I agree there was a few poor set moves used today at Cas, and at Wigan we were pretty poor.

If a few poor set moves results in us putting 68 on a top 6 side then

We peak early every year, you just watch us, we will probably go the reast the season unbeaten, win the CC, reach the GF, win the GF in the rain to I may add...and then lose the big prize, the world club cup. Just you see, typical saints this.

you could use the same thinking in reverse and ask the question HAVE LEEDS LOST THE PLOT?

Not quite. We usually loose a few to start with so this year we have peaked too too early and infact will have peaked again come GF time. Simples!

Why! Your not worried are you? I don't even think we have peaked - yet.

I agree, first half yesterday especially we were really good but other than that I don't think we have hit our best yet.

But only time will tell how things will pan out over the course of the season, I am sure we will have highs and lows like every other club.

We haven't been fantastic yet this season and are still winning, thats testament to the team.

Frankly i'm very concerned that we will be burnt out by the play-offs again, especially with our thin squad.

I'd hope we rest some key players frequently around July. Even if it means we get defeated a few times, the most important thing is to be fit for the play-offs.

Correct.

We're playing quite well, but I think our recent opponents haven't really tested us a great deal. Hull were poor and by the sounds of it, Cas were very poor aswell.

Our performances against Leeds are more worthy of a mention.

Definately mate.

We've been pretty decent in the majority of the games this year and managed to win.

The two Leeds game were without doubt the most intense.

The Wigan game was tough throughout. Hull were poor and I can't speak for Cas as I didn't go.

For me, we need to rest players throughout the month of July. I'm not sure of the exact fixtures but i know we play Wire at some point and Wakey on the 17th (my birthday! ). If we can rotate the squad and rest key players like Jammer, Tony P, Longy maybe Gilly and a few others (obviously not at once) then we can go back to full strength in the beginning of August for the end of the cup and the beginning of the play-offs.

Jammer is the key for me. I'm concerned that he plays consistently for 60 minutes every week. He needs a break to recover soon otherwise he'll be burnt out.
