Yep ... this is a great game of rugby.
Saints forwards are so good but we are looking lively with ball. It is a different world from some games.

Wonderful, and the Williams try was a thing of real beauty.

Has the Union coaches presence made the ref forget which code we're playing? I'm astounded St Helens have been allowed to get away with some ridiculous holding down. I'd be confident of thinking he'd forgotten what a penalty is entirely if he hadn't given that one at the end. Some absolute class from us to get back into this game.

Agree with this, loads of messing and spoiling tactics in the ruck. We should probably have been awarded 4 or 5 more penalties IMO.

Shame mamo is going cas..he's a class act

I suspect we are going to be fined massively for that fire alarm stoppage. Sky saying fireworks let off in the north stand.

Edit. A friend in the stadium saying it was in the away end. So saints letting flares

2 brain farts, 2 tries in the following set

Bentley come out of the same mould as cockayne and Bailey, 'orrible c**t.

Lineham has been awful. 2 brain farts that led to tries, no spacial awareness putting himself in touch, now this high shot.

We've been shambolic, this half.
No real directon, too many mistakes, and we've got what what we deserved.

Ah, well

Never got going second half. Couple of freak tries, some stupid plays, some dubious calls and the man who would make his own mother turn away in disgust, James Bentley.

They have had absolutely everything from the ref tonight!

Lineham had to go, when we restarted how was it their ball? How was that a strip? Moore is a crap referee.ruined this game with some really poor decisions IMO.

Philbin, currie and longstaff have been outstanding tonight.

How did Bentley get away with mouthing off after he scored his try? And why would anyone with even 1 brain cell believe it was necessary? He got a lucky bounce & struts like he's Ellery Hanley.

He is a thoroughly unpleasant grub with zero redeeming features

Shame but nothing to worry about really. We weren't going to catch Saints in the table and our misses tonight will cause St's more trouble next time (if we play them) than Lomax will do to us. The bounce of a ball and a try against the run of play beat us tonight. Nothing there to make me fear them in knock out football.

Something really needs to be done about Bentley though. He has no interest in playing the game and just wants to talk crap and cause injuries. He reminds me of playing for Rylands just under 20 years ago, every game would devolve into a fight due to one player on our side in particular just wanting things to kick off. He's like Connor turned up 10 notches except Connor actually has skill to contribute to the game. He is a grub of the tallest order and seeing Philbin knock the twunt on his was a highlight.

Yeah agreed. Lucky tries really.

I feel we got it wrong going for the 2 when we were 8 behind. Really dissapointed with the referee performance of Moore. I think he made some baffling decisions that all went in saints favour. The ruck officiating was appalling.

They won't miss Bentley he is nothing but a grub.
