You've said that twice now, but I think you'll find that Mellor did a stint (albeit a brief one) in the 1st half.

The subs were obviously a case 'whoever is vaguely fit goes on the bench' - neither Walker or George were fit to be there by all accounts, I assume they were 'fitter' than Manu though.

None of that excuses the poor line speed, slack defence or clueless attacking with ball in hand - but we are clearly down to the barest of bare bones.

And still we hear nothing from Marc Green. Presumably he is hoping we will be give 20 points from the appeal.

You looked a tired team to me. You looked knackered after we scored our second try.

In oxymoron terms.... the silence is deafening!

Think I will have to follow Mr Green's precedence and say I am unable to attend games that take place on a Saturday,Sunday and Friday,

We looked knackered before the game started to be fair.

Well, we did, O'Brien was desperately unlucky to be denied. You must have not been watching it.


Well, he has. You must not have been watching the Warrington game.


I think that's a tad unfair, you need to look after young players, if they're not ready, then they're not ready. Addy has had some decent games, just Saints wasn't one of 'em.

Walker on crutches in coral stand. Amother one bites the dust.

Walker isn't the most talented player we have had in a Bulls shirt but I can't remember a game where I've watched him and thought he didn't give his all. We might well need a few Chev's next season if we drop out the top tier.

I agree with that

He's not, and never will be, a prop - and I'm sure he'd be the first to say that. But he's stuck his hand up and thrown himself into the role when we were short.

It's hardly his fault that, for a variety of well-chronicled reasons, we are criminally short of props

From a Saints point of view I thought FA was spot on.

For the opening 20 it was a bit of a slogg, but defenses were on top. There were good tactics from Bradford, with that wind behind them they could just kick us back to the 20 every set.

But once the line broke for Bradford that's when the game plan fell apart. I'm not sure had you held us in that first half, that you would have had enough to cope in the second with the wind at our backs, but it would have been closer. There was one point were the dummy half for Bradford almost scored. We seemed to fall asleep and I could not see, but assumed he landed short.

Second half the legs, the heart and the energy was gone from Bradford. There was not much they could do. But I don't think you can blame the players the coach or the owner. This all comes down to the previous owners. You can't sign players as they are all under contract. The players you have got could have walked at any point.

The points deduction whilst IMO something the game has to enforce, has made it a bridge too far. You are only one win behind Wakefield, so in terms of a normal season it would be a hum dinger of a relegation battle. But without recovering 2 points from the appeal, it just seems too far a stretch to win say 6 games between now and the end of the season.

Chev is never short of effort in my opinion.

I was watching, we scored 0. Not could have scored 10.
We scored nothing, zero, zilch, diddly squat. Out of 80 minutes you've picked one attempt from dummy half as a reason we could have scored 10 points?



I was at that game. He did ok. Nothing more. I doubt NRL clubs watched that game and though "hmm that Gale is class,he could replace Cronk, Thurston" In fact I doubt Warrington (who have a half back issue) will be knocking on Mr Green's door to sign him.
Again one game. What about the other 12. Leeds, Wigan, Hull, Hull KR, Widnes?

I would have Gale ahead of Addy. But that doesn't make him "a class HB"

Potter isn't a class act when it comes to coaching? Seriously, has today totally blown your mind?

Quite, I've read some daft comments but that has to be right up there with the best of them.
