You tell him O-Mo ..... hmmm maybe not eh

Nice one, now we can talk RL most on sky talk , and like you although I don’t wish Sam, rat boy, Tomkins whatever anyone wants to call him any bad luck I do think his stay will be short in Oz, but on his return it won’t be back to us, or SL I think he’ll go to the dark side for good!

If he doesnt make it in the NRL then if he want to keep his salary at a comparable level then Union will be his only choice as I dont think it could be matched with the cap as it is in SL. A team with money at the back of them (and willing to spend) , Warrington, Salford, Wigan , Leeds could apply for dispensation but I imagine that would cause the teams with money who dont get him to create trouble. Imagine Leneghan get permission to pay him 500k a year with 250k 'outside of the cap' the good Dr at Salford would demand at least the same

Plus for all the fluff the Wigan chairman talked about (like players returning etc etc) I dont see how thats manageable with a cap. Wigan will replace players lost and I would expect spend upto the cap, if a player then wants to come back someone will need to be shifted, easier said than done at times

He is an exceptional player and as I’ve said before, I hope he does do well, but I do think under the nice boy next door image, his bread head is getting a bit too big for his pink boots. Having said that he probably will end up in (if you’ll pardon the expression) rugby union, and go down a storm, all be it a northern storm. As for the likes of Dr Coolcash he like, Mr DW in football will soon get sick of chucking their cash down the sh*t-house for no good return.

Surprised you lot are so pessimistic, we were in poor form for the five games before Monday, plus I can see us resting a couple, the ones that do play may well have one eye on the cup as well. I do hope you guys get it together it's no good for the league you being in this state

Poor form? Its all reletive, pal.

5 weeks poor form vs a season of dross.

Your change of post now reflects the fact you read the rest of the thread I assume. If you attend you are unlikely to see a Saints team who are 'up for it'... unless of course you mean up for a beating. We run out and we've lost most games before we've kicked off because we just seem to have the wrong attitude.

If an outsider looked at our form since the Magic Weekend, they might fancy you to do the job. Look at our form below and keep in mind you're in 7th place:

Wakefield (a) - 9th - Losing with 10 mins left, two late tries and a penalty seal the win
Widnes (a) - 11th - Losing with 15 mins left, Level with 10 mins left, a late try and a drop goal win it
Warrington (a) - 3rd - Lost by 10
Castleford (h) - 12th - Lost by 14
Bradford (h) - 10th - Losing with 5 mins left, level until the last second when we score a winning try
Widnes (h) - 11th - Battered them by 44 points

Sadly as it's a Monday night game I will not be there.




Still I've backed us to win on the predictions thread. No logic behind it, just could not put Wigan to win.

Then they'd be bonkers.

And yet the Ref and the RFL subsequently saw nothing wrong. I watched the game and didn't see anything which is also called 'snapping the pole' at St Helens and other teams.

The tackling technique is outlawed and Wigan don't do it.

As for the Bradford got sick, are you basing this on hearsay from the forums or did you go to the game an witness it yourself?

Wellens does that week in, week out but still gets slated.

I do agree though, our forwards need to put in a huge performance tomorrow.

Effort is part of it but has never been Wello's problem. We are crap at the moment but it is a combination of factors, some players cant be bothered others are past it and others have never had anything to be passed. A really bad combination of things to have in a squad
