Most players read this board and if they don't a family member or friend will

| The only player Saints fans can be accused of having a direct impact on for me is Eastmond. He was openly boo'd at matches. If the players come on here and see things they don't want to see.. Tough! They are grown men! if i'm performing poor at work im told about it!

I nearly choked on the glass of water I was drinking at the same time as reading this.

And a chuckle from me as well, I,m assuming Wellens is excluded from this statement.

| The main issue for me is organisational...
Lomax isnt an organisational half back, more off the cuff, taking the line on is where he is better. Playing alongisde Gaskell, who also doesnt seem to have the ability to organise the team effectively is where we are coming up short. People have slated Hohaia as a half back, but off the ball he organises the line well when he is at 6.
Until Lomax or Gaskell can learn to organise an attacking line, them as a pairing will not work imo

Unfortunatley, whilst you may speculate that the quality of superleague has declined, there's not many teams that are going to be a pushover this year. Bradford have got some pretty good forwards in Scruton,Manufukoa (sp),Sidlow,Walker and Whitehead. It won't be an easy day out.

Why are we culpable for a player's performance levels dropping? Is it because we said something on an internet forum which you say he probably doesn't visit?'"
Maybe because he picks up on the booing and moaning 'the fans' give him when he makes a mistake? Duh

Look what you do to a player, I really hope he leaves us and finds a team where he can shine again where the fans won't constantly complain when he makes a mistake. Just like Smith and soon to be Foster, when will you all learn? Absolute idiots, you have destroyed his confidence and it won't be long before you destroy Gaskells, Makinsons, Jones' etc. I don't agree he should play at scrum half at all but seriously the way some of you go around it is just plain childish and pathetic, hard to believe some of you are fully grown adults and i really doubt you are to be honest. Really think all these youth players are gonna wanna go for Saints if they are offered scholarships from the like of Wigan and Warrington? I know every team has a set of fans like most of the posters on here but at the end of the day teams like Wigan and their fans get behind the team and their players, wish are fans were like them.'"
That im afraid is totall rubbish!
Wigan fans wanted Richards out after a season, giving him stick when he made a clanger etc.... 2 years later he was MOS. Instead of these boards the club should put meetings on where we can discuss there tragic displays. Let the individuals explain why they cant be botherd taking on the line, when a family have paid more than £50 get in.

I don't understand the link between the video and your comment. For probably 75% of those clips he was either playing half-back or on the wing.
Unless you're being sarcastic and in which case you've made your point perfectly?

The support play on most of them try's is fantastic, on the shoulder support and shows bursts of speed. Them are Jonny's best bits. No great passing moves, no fantastic passing etc... He is a full back.

I see what you're saying about the support play, but that video isn't evidence of him being the "perfect full back," seeing as very few of the clips actually show him playing full back, that's my point.
