[b:3w2ur1db]Superleague Titles[/b:3w2ur1db] Warrington Wolfs - 0 Wakefield Trinity - 0 Leigh Centurions - 0 [quote="Budgiezilla":3w2ur1db]Surely it can only be a player from Catalans. Probably the best RL side I have ever witnessed in this season's comp.[/quote:3w2ur1db]:



Quote: silver2 "You're having a laugh aren't you? St Helens probably didn't even warrant a sentence in his life story. His stay there was the equivalent of taking a break at a motorway service station.'"


The now immortal Mal Meninga produced a man of the match performance by leading St Helens to a lancashire cup final victory against bitter rivals wigan on their home turf. To this day I think David Stephenson is still trying to escape Mal's pocket

The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you. Welsby-Dodd-Simms-Eaves-Rizzelli, not Eastmond...the future is coming.:Dwarfs, Gnomes, Halflings/GNOME2.JPG



Quote: thepimp007 "Genuine question will Barba be seen as the same whenever he decides to leave? Or does it depend on the silverware coming this year too?'"


I would say no, Ben Barba has probably been one of our worse players in the last 3 or 4 games he's played. From what I can remember Meninga was "on the button" most of the time scored 38 tries in the season, didn't carry any controversy and what stood out was how tough he was and very rarely dominated.

Yeah that was my thinking, although he didnt look fully fit last time i saw him, knee looked heavily strapped. I think Lyon, Gidley etc did more. Don't get me wrong it has been great seeing someone of his quality here but I think he owuld need a couple more seasons to go into folklore

He was top drawer, but it was 28 tries in the season not 38.

Quote: JEAN CAPDOUZE "Some might argue that Malcolm Meninga was the greatest player St Helens ever had.

Remember that St Helens has also had classy players like Jaime Lyon and Matthew Gidley as star centres in their times there. So to rate Malcolm Meninga as St Helens best ever player is quite an accolade.'"


Would place a fair few above Meninga as the best I have seen play for St Helens.

At the top of my list would be Karel Thomas van Vollenhoven.
