he came back on or was you not paying close attention? lol seriously trying to blame O'Loughlin for the kid slipping over.

He will get a ban but as usual they will work in so he only misses minor games. Prob one match ban so he will get a rest in the cc.

Why do saints, Widnes and Warrington play local derby over Easter, yet Wigan get the bulls at home? Also seems very convienant Wigan had London the week before the busy Easter period.

So basically it's rest players the week before Easter. Pick full strength for Good Friday. Then rest players against the bulls and championship side the following week after Easter.

All the other sides are struggling with Easter but seems Wigan got it easy.

I said at the time, the lad slipped into it. SOL would have hit him in the chest otherwise, not much in it for me

Not seen it on the tv but it doesn't matter if Richards slipped or not, if the is contact to the head then it's foul play. If the was a slip then maybe it wasn't deliberate but either way if he's hit the head it's foul play.

More or less what the ref said to SOL at the time. Penalty sufficient for me.

So why put on report ?

No idea, maybe to see if his fist was clenched?

I agree with Pete. That roby has been well below par. I've noticed a couple of times the ball is being played and he's not watching. I would say though in his defense. The coach is insistant on burning him out before the end of the season with this 80 minute madness

By putting it on report the ref gives St Helens a free substitution so they can take the kid off and check he is ok. If it's not on report it counts as a sub.

Ok, I didn't know that

I agree, people seem to forget that he has only had a hand full of first team games. Not up to the level that Makinson and Swift are at but much better than Gardner.

Inexperience is one thing, but that didn't make him one of our better players! 5 tackles 5 missed tackles is pretty poor. Hopefully he will be better as he gets more experience - but he was poor yesterday. Gardner would of given us some directness when trying to work out from our half which we were missing.

(That is not to say, Gardner would of definitely been the better choice for Friday - he comes with his own set of flaws)

Brown IMO was talking about:

LMS. I think he's scared of Wigan. Must have been who he was talking about.

Turner as well who got destroyed by some hillbilly playing out of position,

Am I really reading some people saying Dawson had a decent game?

He is terrible, championship standard at best.
