Obstructions, assaults, forward passes and holding down in tackle! I'm sure if we all keep watching the game from Friday again and again we will find some more excuses to why we lost.

Are you Shaun Edwards in disguise or Joe Lydon or Andy Farrell or Dennis Betts or Phil Clarke, etc, etc.

FFS, get a grip of yourself. This is a Saints forum and people can be as one eyed as Barrie Mac if they wish to be. I've never read such stringent criticism towards the partisan attitude that all fans show for their own team. Especially from one of their own, alledgedly.

I sincerely hope we do.

Been going since I could, 1996. I'm nobody's flower either!

I know you call it how you see it, we know it all too well. Wish you'd keep a sock in it a bit more than you do. Fans just don't like to lose, it's human nature and most feel the need to try to justify it somehow to make them feel better. It's how it works, why get so irate about it?

If this was a conversation all we'd be doing is listening. You're not an ex copper as well are you?

You mean where Makinson scored? I know. It was a disgrace.

Wish FM commentators stated your first try today was from a forward pass.
This in effect won you the match.

That would be the one we had chalked off, for a forward pass.

No it was the first scored try. The ref went to the touchjudge and it was given.

That wasn't about it being forward. It was about a possible knock on. They discussed, and awarded the try.

And it was Armstrong who scored it, not Makinson.

You should have heard Radio Leeds comments!!!!

It was in the second half, but it was about how the ball came out from either Soliola or Puletua.
Would that be the same incident?

It would if it was in the first half because Soliola was involved in the play leading up to that try. The ref and the touchie were in discussion a little while and then the try was awarded. It was either the first or second of Armstrong's tries, I can't remember exactly. Our very first crossing was chalked off due to a forward pass. I think the poster has conflated a couple of incidents.

Wello dropping the ball with the line beckoning,not kicking for touch with the last penalty,a poor kick straight to tompkins,switching off in defence with 1 minute to go are more why we lost than the forward pass,the game was there to be won and without being harsh on our younger players an older head would of helped to win it in the last few minutes

i thought that about the obstruction but it would be harsh, and they're never going to give that in such a big game against the home team, knowing us we'll get a decision like that given in our favour when we're battering someone at home by 40 points!
