Ray just forgot were Saints will be playing at next week, before finally coming up with THE LANGTREE STADIUM

Not bagging him and without his kicks we'd struggle but IMO the last half of last year, the friendly game and today he's become a liability under the high ball.

Meli got a huge amount of stick for his problems with kicks but foster ain't any better.

In my honest opinion he has got caught up in all his hype and stop performing on the pitch.

Exactly

Not sure if anyone here is posting via mobile device but how anyone can form a judgement on the game or player performances without actually 'seeing' the game is beyond me. And please nobody use the radio commentary as defence as the last 8 pages have gone on about the poor nature of it.

Spoke to mates on the phone who ate there and had txts during the game as well.

He made two mistakes off kicks which resulted in two tries, he dropped 3/4 kicks against Widnes and had trouble in the 2nd half of last season.

He openly admits he's not dealing with kicks.

It's actually very easy to if you listen to more than one source and cross reference them. It helps understanding the game and the players too.

Also accounts from people who are there help.

Apparently Gary Wheeler was injured although whether he played on or what I don't know. Anyone else know?

Also, it seems Royce isn;t happy with our kicking game and thinks we have 'a few areas to work on' which is exactly what I would expect after the first game of the season!

I'd very much like him to work on reorganising that left edge, which is a leaky sieve.

Apparently also LMS played 80 minutes? Can someone confirm that?

Each is entitled to their own opinion but I personally don't believe I can make my own 'informed' decision on today's game or player performances without seeing it with my own eyes. I have mates who are there but even if we stand next to each other every week we have differing views of players & what they did / did not do.

All I'm saying is that without seeing it for yourself then comments will always be open to the subjective nature of other individuals.

Plenty of teams will be beaten by London at the Stoop this year, so I'm just happy we've gt the two points. Sounds like it was a scrappy performance, but on day one of the season in sub-zero temperature that seems fairly understandable.

Absolutely correct, which is why I always make sure I have the opinion of at least 3 sources before judging on any performances I haven't seen.

Im sure he was subbed.

that

Think LMS came off for Perry in the second half?

2 points away from home in those conditions? I'm happy with that.

Every person whose there i've been txt by says Foster had a mare.

Would take a win whatever the performance today. London won quite a few games against us at the start of the season so happy the team have come away with 2 points.
Will take a couple of games to knock off the rusty play.....looking forward to our home game v Salford.
