Quote: St pete "I wouldn't say this is one of the best packs we've had in 20 years.'"
I like this pack. It doesn't have the big names of previous years. But it doesn't have a lot of the dead wood we've carried either. Good skills across the board. Aggressive. Maybe short of one player with electric pace and a bit of leadership. But it's impossible to have everything.
It's easy to romanticise previous teams. But I can remember big names turning in some pretty ordinary performances. Indeed, under Millward you were never entirely sure which Saints pack would turn up.
The gold standard is Anderson's first year.
