The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you. Welsby-Dodd-Simms-Eaves-Rizzelli, not Eastmond...the future is coming.:Dwarfs, Gnomes, Halflings/GNOME2.JPG



Hope some of the Mick Potter "knockers" on here will come on board and be counted.

Quote: Judder Man "Hope some of the Mick Potter "knockers" on here will come on board and be counted.'"


Here are a few

Quote: Judder Man "F*** off Potter.'"


Quote: Judder Man "We have Potter
They have Mcnamara
all we need is Cullen & we've got a full set!'"


Quote: Judder Man "give scully the coaching job and get rid of that pratt potter....absolute poop again tonight...at least the team will probally want to play for sculthorpe, its obvious they dont want to play for potter.'"


Quote: Judder Man "a sheep would probally do a better job'"


Quote: Judder Man "Predictable. Near enough every play we did was the ball to the first receiver and then he would give it either back inside or outside to a forward to drive it in, and then we wonder why Hull managed to get 3 and 4 in the tackle.'"


Quote: Judder Man "To those mocking the OP, it's not a knee jerk at all. People, those with any sense at least, have questioned Potter since he was announced as coach. He didn't have sufficient experience, he doesn't have a personality and is completely clueless tactically.'"


Quote: Judder Man "Potter has turned us from "The Entertainers" to a team that happily trundles the ball forward and then makes a hash of the last tackle. Our pack isn't big enough to burst up the middle, yet up the middle we go. The Saints of old would through the ball around and entertain the crowd, but Potter has us playing a boring, ineffective brand of football. His tactics are poor and he capped it off by putting Roby on the wing. Something has to change ! Now !!!'"


Quote: Judder Man "no,we are missing a coach who knows what he is doing.'"


Clueless, know nowt, knee jerk s.

I hope potter throws the SL trophy in the bin when we win it

Why? Saints fans in the main are clueless. There are people like Gaz and FearTheVee who keep their feet firmly on the ground, but the majority on here have been so spoiled by success that if we arent winning by 60 at half time, including length of the field tries going through 43 different pairs of hands and our coach running through the crowd high fiving everyone then the coach needs sacking.

The fans dont deserve someone like potter and he wouldnt because, hes the most professional coach we have had in years, but id love it if he stuck two fingers up at the fans.

The best attacking team in superleague (tries and metres) for the last 2 or 3 seasons would say otherwise. Saints have not had there regular half back pairing for most of the season, so the team has had to adapt and play to there strengths, from the pack.

Try reaching a GF without both first choice half backs then you can talk about tactics.

Nice insult. Weapon of the weak minded. Many years unfortunately. I've even seen us win at Knowsley road. icon_wink.gif

Potter has done an incredible job, despite what some may say. This year in particular we've been excellent and if we hadn't picked up injuries at the wrong time we may well have reached a Challenge Cup Final aswell. Two Grand Finals in Potter's reign, superb effort.

Potter is leaving... seriously ? When was this anounced, and why ?
Who the heck are we getting in his place, I hope its Ian Millward.
