We're arguably in as good a position to beat them tonight than ever before!
But I still have this niggling feeling that we'll come up short. I mean, from my point of view, Saints played very average in our last two meetings and still we couldn't get the win.
We have improved tenfold this season, crucially in the mental department. And we need to beat them this time.

War does not determine who is right - only who is left.

Correct ... he was only ever going to go for a solo 'pie-muncher' try.

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: the flying biscuit "I 'm not at all concerned about losing a game that was a dead rubber
in real terms we were beaten by a team that trundled it up the park with minimum fuss, they scored a fluke "try" By Wellens that gave them belief that it was their night like usual.
Then cunningham scoring a try which came from him simply having no other option but to go himself, he looked for runners and had none! that again endorsed the fact that things were "going their way"
The saints pack as a whole played well, to say James Graham on his own dominated our entire Pack (including Carvell who was our best player) is giving credit where it isnt due.
but they made their own luck and fair play to em fair result. but I dont have to take anything with class it isnt my style....'"
You sound like a wire player with a monkey on his back. |

Fat blokes in the mud, flat caps, bogs that drain pi55 directly onto your boots - Now it's all 'Big Ask', 'Arm Wrestle', 'Collision' 'Contact' 'Facials' 'Upper Body Strength' 'Big Units' 'Scooting from Dummy Half' 'Energy Levels' 'Laying the Platform' ‘Middles’ and 'T-R-Y'. Let’s not forget resilience.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_32137.jpg |

For me most of the points have been made but to summarise.
1. Wire made a great start which might have worked against us for the following 70 mins.
2. Matty Smith had a point to prove, and he did, good luck to the lad.
3. The game should have been KO, which is really what Playoff footy is all about.
4. Saints played a very calculated game, kicked their goals and took 2 point pens rather than trying for the 4.
5. Saints adapted to the conditions and credit to them for that
6. My neck hurts from having to keeping moving either side of an 8inch stanchion to see the game
7. Wire panicked with 25 mins to go
In a strange way it may work in our favour (fingers firmly crossed)

How can I miss you, if you won't go away????:17064.jpg |

| Quote: Duke Eddington "Since you brought up the subject of grounding the ball, how long as a player been able to ground the ball with his testicles, A la Myler, if the ref had gone to the video Saints would have had another try. Wellens grounded the ball, Myler didn't. Get over it.'"
I'm with you on that....Myler had as much knowledge of grounding the ball as Wellens did, which was absolutely zero.
It definitely isn't sour grapes on my part, just an opinion that the rules are a joke that allows a try to be awarded for what is basically, accidental downward pressure. |

Don't rate Foster. Can hardly call Graham and Soliola youngsters. |
