Yeah, those Wigan fans were mightily entertained when he nearly took them down.
A man of the time, and as great a time as it was, the game has moved on. We'd be creamed playing like that now.

| I don't think saints play with the same swagger and belief they used to do.
I think that's the fallout from losing 3 grand finals on the trot. Sean long said after last years grand final ''it's demoralising you know, you start to doubt yourself'', so if sean long is thinking that with the amount he's won what were some of the others in the team thinking?
Long is now in a total new team with new surroundings, but the rest of the saints team are still there.
Eastmond and pryce were both players who could play off longs nouse, but now they are needed to provide that and they are not players who will do that.
You'll be up there but i don't see you making any finals this year lads.

You're assuming that Millward would have us playing like that now? He may still do flair and off the cuff but also defence.

I was being a little OTT but tbh I really doubt we could do much worse than Potter at the moment , the players dont seem to want to play for him and it's showing with the poor performances

| Pryce is getting some $hit on here which he may deserve the way he's started this year and played the 2nd half of last season but he's not the only player not playing well.
The other players often bagged on here are ade, meli, flannery and maurie but there are others...
We have a current international who is living off playing well in one game at leeds in the cc. This guy is more invisable than pryce but never ever gets any stick.
Also i have forgot the last time i seen KC, gidley, wilkin or clough play well.

I thought Wilkin was one of our better players against Hull.

Graham tried hard, as always but didn't has much to back him. Early on (when we made a few breaks) they came off Wilkin and Graham pretty much every time.

His last big job doesn't suggest he does though.
People are remembering a very good period for us. Millward was only a part of that, he would no longer have Sculthorpe, Cunningham, Long and Martyn at the top of their games. Instead he has Flannery, a well past his best Cunningham, a very inexperienced Eastmond and a runner with no form in Pryce. We don't have the players to play off the cuff like we used to and defences are far tighter than they used to be.
People think Potter is a disaster? We'd see real disaster if Millward came back.

3076_1671446335.jpg SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

You really have your sensible head on today, that I believe is a realistic assessment.

Some speccies from other clubs said we'd never win the big games when Anderson arrived, but I stated it didn't worry me too much as long as I didn't have to go through any more 70-0 drubbings which we'd get handed twice a season under Millward.

We gave out the drubbings instead, which is a [imuch[/i nicer feeling!
