Bit of a false statement considering we r in the semi final mate, Austin is class but is playing around a crap team.

I don't understand people calling Austin a 'bully'? What is that even supposed to mean in the context of rugby league? Who is he bullying? Is he calling someone names and taking their pocket money too?

It's a term used in and around St Helens, it doesn't mean anything it's simply a line filler when they've exhausted their limited vocabulary.

It isn’t used quite as often as “bang average”, in Sintillins it means not very good in bed

So you’ve never heard of the phrase flat track bully?

You really are a simpleton if you don’t know what flat track bully means.

I genuinely hadn't. Having looked it up I get the context now, although I still think it's a bit harsh on Austin (or any other halfback for that matter).

He'd better not be, thats Jake Connor's gig.

Surprised you've not seen it used on here last season to describe saints, who were flat track bullies till it came to the semi finals of both competitions.

Warrington have been bang average for months now. Yet they are second in the table and 1 game away from Wembley. Doesn't say a lot about the standard of the rest of super league, does it?

It’s just one of those things. He just can’t or won’t turn up in the big games. The recent game against us summed it up. First half and your forwards took it to us and laid great field position for him and he was absolutely nowhere to be seen. Hastings, McGuire, Williams and Kelly would have had an absolute field day in that first half. Say what you want about him but Lomax always turns up in the big games.

It’s quite a worry for Warrington! Maybe he’s just waiting for the business end of the season. I don’t know! He’s shown what he can do against the lesser teams. At times unplayable. Just needs to do it against the top teams

Hull are 4 points clear in 3rd having lost 40% of their games and conceding more points than they've scored. The standard this year us awful
