| It was the end of an era but not specifically for saints.
It's been 23 years since bradford, leeds wigan or saints didn't play in a cc final.
Expect alot more of the same in the CC over the next few years.
May take a few more years for the grand final to be donned by someone other than the above 4 but it'll happen pretty soon.

Where do Bradford come in this? It's 23 years since Saints, Wigoon or Leeds haven't played in a Challenge Cup Final. IIRC all the Bulls appearances in a Challenge Cup Final have been against us or Leeds.

| It's the end of an era for one Saints team. But give it a year and these youngsters will be dominating again in a new Saints team.
Eastmond and his ilk still have a lot to learn, but just give them a season or two and they'll be hard to beat.

3076_1671446335.jpg SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

I remember Wigan thinking the same, with Brown, Hodgson, Robinson, Tickle, Wild, Hock and O'loughin coming through who were, with all due respect better players than Wheeler, Dean, Armstrong, Dixon and Ashurst.

LOL
Will they f*ck.
Eastmond is the only gem.
It's alright saying, ''oh we have these youngsters that will magically step up and starting winning trophies in x amount of years'' but bar eastmond it'll be tomorrow never comes.
Eastmond [ialready has[/i stepped up and if you had more youngsters as good as him you'd be looking at doing well.

| I was listening to Granada Reports at tea time last night. They had an interview with Ian Millward which was very good. When asked about whether he thought Saints were coming to the end of an era he said NO. He said Saints always look forward two or three years and they had some good youngsters lined up to take the place of others who were coming to the end of their time. Saints will always be there or there abouts in the top four he said. He had only good things to say about Saints. I think he still misses us.

Because he knows he has no leg to stand on in slagging us off, and would probably end up slapped around silly in court if he opened his gob in the wrong tone.

Leeds have won three titles in a row on the back of players of the quality of McGuire, Burrow, JJB, Diskin etc. and that shows you don't even need a gem to lift the silverware just a competitive, well-drilled and professional outfit.
