My inner conspiracy theorist wonders why they never show the penalty count anymore! 

Superb win. We have our team back :

All those lights, trophies, fireworks and bluster, for nothing! Brilliant. 

Splendid.  The loss of Thewliss threatened to derail us, we missed some glaring one on ones, suspect one or two weren't 100% and Kendall swung from the baffling to the incompetent but bravery won the day.

I honestly thought we would run out of steam there. In the end we had 2 chances to win by more near the end with Tai and Powell. Top win. 

Sam says we may have 4 or 5 missing next week! 

Plastic scousers bringing  out their old trophies. How small time.


Wilson WILLING a saints score on every occasion (so bad, I muted the commentary fromn60 minutes)


Kendal unable to referee musical chairs for an 8 year old birthday party 


....but most importantly 


WELL
DONE
WIRE

Since he's been back, has Briers been sponsored by Waterfields?

Because he got one in first half, I am fully disgusted with him for that. I just hope it’s not the next thing coming into the game.

Sneyd MoM not surprised by that but Currie was massive defensively tonight.

A real smash and grab. Saints are far from great but they had us on the ropes all night and we just about kept finding answers. Currie was superb, my player of the match even though he had a lot to deal with in Percival (Saints' most dangerous by far). Walker was terrific too; really was no reason to bring him off for Powell.


It's nuts that we have had Musgrove not even in the 17 for weeks. Not saying he was amazing, but got through plenty of work and a far bigger body than we've had in the pack. Fitzgibbon added a lot, let's hope it isn't another month until we see him again.
