I'll take that wager

| Quote: Ashmeister "There is no team in Super League that is so well disciplined that they dont give away a penalty in one half.
Ian Smith is and always will be a wa*ker!
HKR deserved that victory because we was'nt at our best. I thourght Fozzard was brilliant.
It's not doom n gloom we'll still be up there at the end! 14 of our lads were English tonight. Brilliant!'"
How many penalties did Saints give away against Rovers at Knowsley Road last season?
Didn't you play a game at the Stoop and concede 0 penalties aswell?

The difference is Leeds' top youngsters play in the first team while yours play in academy games.
Maybe when your old boys retire very soon you will find out the value in that.

| Quote: Judder Man "4 games last year, 2 out of our first 3 games this year. Lost 4 games out of 6, 2 games were with controverisial circumstances hence no more games afters Andersons spat.
Having watched rugby league for a long, long time, worse referee have seen for a long, long time. Some of his decision making he just makes up in his head.'"
You know it is people like you who must make supporters of other teams think we are a set of idiot whingers, you need to wake up and face it, we were undercooked and just came up against a team playing very hot and determined at the early part of the season
Hull KR have drawn with Bratfud and by all accounts _should_ have beaten the Whinos so why are you so keen to bash the ref, you would be better watching the game, it is no disgrace and it is no disaster. face up to it man on the day they beat us not the ref
Smith has reffed us for years, in superleague games up to this year we won 18 lost 7 Away games with him reffing. At home we had won 13 and lost just 2. So that is 31 - 9, if he is bent / hates Saints / etc etc then he aint making much of a job is he.
My advice to you is just watch the game and if we lose take it like a man not whinging like a little girl, we will still be there at the sharp end

I think your perception of these youngsters is distorted somewhat; and will be amplified when the likes of Cunningham & Gidley retire.
Eastmond looks a great prospect granted; and Frodsham has potential to do well but there's not a cat in hell's chance all four will play will play for England in 3 years.
I'Anson is a better prospect than Wheeler and Liam Watts is a better player than Frodsham.
You really need to take a step back and not be consumed by the typical RL media noises and the "bubble" surrounding your club.

You can't compare two players, like Wheeler and I'Anson, who have only played a handful of games each. When they have played a few seasons of Super League then you can determine who is the better player.

Fair point.
I certainly think all fans of all SL clubs hype up their youngsters to be more than they actually are, but your clubs case, I get a strong impression that is even more so.

Dave Howes said Watts is the best prospect he has on his books.
But hey-ho, you carry on believing every young Saints player will turn out to be as good as Roby & Graham if you want...
