"That player should be hauled off the pitch and made to write a hundred lines I shall not pass the ball like that" Ray French, Priceless

which pass was that referring to?

Ball goes wide to Shenton who gives a great quick ball to Gardner to go in for his second. Foster misses the covnersion.

Full time hooter goes, Saints 34 - 18 Crusaders.

Well atleast we only got beat 12 - 4 in the second half! Our performances once we gain a lead are shocking but still it's 2 points in the bag! Welldone lads.

why oh why do they let the other team make a comeback every week?
surley simmons can see it......with a big lead they shoul'd be putting the other teams to bed.
...(never satisfied even when we win

)

Not sure, I was making a brew at the time with the sound down (son in bed and his room is right above), just caught him saying it and gut laughed

I'm inclined to agree, the fact that we let the other team score 2 or 3 tries at the death when we're winning needs to be addressed. Last year 4 points was the difference between 2nd and 3rd, who's to say that won't be the case again this year.

He can. He said so in his pre-match comment on the Saints site. He also said in his post match comment that he told them at halftime to respect the opposition. But they didn't. They got casual again.

Guys 2nd in the league??????

Are we turning into the Whino's on here??

We want to be a championship winning side. You don't become one of those by putting your cue on the rack when things are looking good. You become one of those by killing off your opposition. We have adopted a casual attitude which is a bad habit that is proving hard to break.

Thankfully that is our only realy gripe at the moment and they must be doing a lot right if we are complaining about things when our team is winning games in one half, things could be a lot worse.

But I agree it is something that has got to go from our game before it costs us in our final position or worse a knockout match, its casual rather than just lazy but it is a bad habit than can be hard to stop.
