Hopefully we can wedge him somewhere in the stands between Browny and KC.

Quote: No1 Saint "His passing was far superior to anything Ive seen from Ashe or any other makeshift half we've tried. Hopefully we'll keep him and he'll settle in.'"


I agree he did ok, he looks like a halfback and that's something we ain't seen in a saints shirt for a long long time but I feel that fact we getting carried away by few nice passes just shows how far we have gone backward. O'Brian did what any half decent number 7 should be able to do.

I think O'Brian will me much better next week, he will have had another week training and be more settled.

We were light years off again today. Bullied up the middle & pedestrian in attack bar our usual ten minutes flurry. Caught at marker again because we haven't the forwards to contain Huddsfield, Brough played in slippers he had that much time.

Until we bring in a front row & two halves weve absolutely no chance. We can bleat about decisions as long as we want but in reality we werent even close.
Our weaknesses are easy to see & were easy to defend against, if I could fast forward to next season Id do it in a heart beat

I really do not think we was. This seems to be the stock phrase whenever we lose.

I don't think we was bullied in the pack today, we let ourselves down by lacking creativity on their line. I'll have the stats up either tomorrow or Wednesday and I'm fairly sure they'll show quite an even meter count.

I thought it was a creditable performance from Saints.

As i thought with Roby in the team the forwards get a lot more go forward due to his distribution and general threat around the ruck.

Our weaknesses were as follows:
Wello at Fullback who was targeted by Brough with his booming kicks. They knew full well that he would only be able to trundle it back and made our forwards return it from deep first half

Percival. Targeted heavily for the second week in a row defensively. I wont blame him for the Brough try though as that was Wilkin being stood up. However ive noted that when teams get on top of him as they have for the last few weeks, his game starts to crumble somewhat.

Half backs looked lost, however both showed bits of promise. Turner scored a decent try and o'brien looks a good passer of the football, cant tackle to save his life though, and saw none of his supposed kicking game.

Best player on the pitch was Manu who looked class. Puletua and Walmsley also had strong games.

What we need though is to go with certain combinations and stick with them.

If Lomax is back next week then he has to go to fullback.

I see a few fools are calling for Browns head
The simple answer is that whoever is in charge they wont have a chance with a team with no half backs of merit. The time to judge Brown is next year when we will have a scrum half and hopefully Lomax playing regularly at fullback.

I have no doubt they'll have made more metres but I certainly don't think we was 'bullied', we made a good yardage today.

I agree with you. I thought we held our own.

Respectfully, that's tosh. A good coach makes the best of what he has. So far, all Brown is doing is putting unnecessary pressure upon our team by constantly changing them around. There was no need for wholesale change today but he made it anyway and so people didn't know their partners, in attack or defence, and that undermined everything we attempted to do. Brown is stupid in this regard but he clearly will not change his ways and so we will continue to slide down the table, needlessly.

I believe we made more metres tonight. At least we did in the first half, can't imagine it changed in the second half.

At half time the stats showed we had made more metres than Huddersfield, so considering the possession we had in the second half I would be surprised if we had not finished the game with more overall yardage.

Were Hudds gained territory was in their kicking game.
Hudds looked noticeably tired in the second half. I think that's why Brough took that drop goal he knew the Hudds pack was fading.

I am one of them fools calling for Brown's head. I never wanted him at Saints in the 1st place but that's beside the point. I appreciate he has had no scrum half but I would argue that we've not had one since Longy left. Please tell me why I should have some faith in what he's doing? What are the positives he's brought to the club?

Giants pack wasn't fading, they were saving energy

Due to a ridiculous schedule we play again on Friday
