Have been saying the same since Friday, nothing wrong with it.
If you sing "there's only one Sam Tomkins" when he drops a ball, expect him to enjoy scoring a try in front of you.
Great player. Has a bit of niggle in his locker, but meh.

| Why Charnley? Yeah he's got a terrible hair cut but other than that.
Roby deserved a slap for not handing the ball over to Carmont, but instead childishly kicking it away. Disappointing that, as I didn't have Roby down as that kind of player.
I'd say Perry deserves a slap but Hock already gave him one.
To be honest this current Saints team doesn't really have anyone that I'd honestly want to slap. Now the previous Saints teams of the SL era, well that's another matter. It still es me off to see Tommy Martyn, and he stopped playing years ago!

It's hard to believe that he is [ideliberately [/itrying to to "mame", if he did it "about 15 times" with no injuries at all occuring from those attempts, surely?
You're trying to make something out of nothing.

Just because it doesn't injure someone every game doesn't mean it's dangerous. When was the last time a spear tackle actually hurt anyone for example? Still just as dangerous.

| Tomkins, Hock and Bailey. Predictable I know, but otherwise it would be Briers, O'Loughlin and Atkins.

So we'll see if this figment of your imagination gets picked up at any of the video review sessions. I believe the results are out tomorrow with the disciplinary hearings on Thursday.

| Lee Smith
Carl Ablett
Matthew Elliot (was about 14 at the time I think but still remember him turning round to us in the West stand at Wigan and giving us all the v sign after Radlinski snatched the last minute try).
The 2 players are very average who are cheap shot cowards.

You'll have to wait for the next "big game" before you see him/her. Unless you want to travel the 150+ miles to MK.

Wilkin would be about the closest but your right and that would worry me as a Saints fan.
I can't help feel the Saints team at the moment is just a bit too nice for it's own good. They seem to have a lot of blokes that you'd rather go for a pint with and slap them on the back then in the face. Even the big bug*ers like Puletua and Soliola seem good eggs.
Perry could get there but he'd have to find some form first.

To be honest I haven't seen a genuine spear tackle in a long time. The ones that tend to get cited these days are 'legs above horizontal' which is an altogether different beast. Peackock's looked quite bad the other day but even in that one the player wasn't driven into the ground, although he did land on his neck. The tough policing of this offence has, in reality, all but eradicated it.
As for the 3rd man in around the legs; you do realise it's not an offence to do that, don't you? Never has been and never will be. Even if you're not familiar with the rules, the fact that it is never cited should give you a bit of a clue! I think you need to take up watching another sport if this is bothering you so much. Maybe boxing. However I suggest you don't start complaining to other boxing fans that those nasty men keep hitting each other. Just saying...
