Blimey, a saints fan moaning about the disciplinary process, how ironic. Thought they were the darlings of the British game who have made us all so proud with their antipodean antics back in February?! Spare me. They've had it coming.

Powell seems to like a ball player at 13, a big ball player. Philbin extremely limited when it comes to his ability to play with ‘soft hands’.

Unless Philbin has been working on that side of his game. Hopefully he has, but I think he’s more the battering ram rather than the player who can do both, ie Kasiano, McGuire.

Will be interesting to see how it plays out.

i reckon IMG have told the refs and disciplinary to ensure Stains dont win again as its bad for the sport

Was going to post similar and I guess it’s why Clark has been playing that role in the interim.

Thought the Leigh 13 looked good in that role on Fri.

If we have a fully fit pack I think Philbin would struggle to get a place, fortunately that is not likely to happen too often. But he does add depth to the squad and allows Powell to rotate his big men. When we get towards the end of the season having seasoned players like Philbin around could be crucial in the knock out stages.

I see Wellens has had another whinge too. It's funny that they're rattled but history shows they will eventually intimidate the refs into chucking a few decisions their way when it really matters.

Breaking News Saints appealing Knowles ban, now that’s a shock.

Which is what all the moaning is about from the Club rather than fans. Force the ref to think v carefully before giving even the most obvious of penalties.
Their fans seem to think we are the RFL’s darlings, hate to think what sort of ban Maguire would have got if the RFL didn’t like us.

Nothing to lose, if overturned great, if a game added allows them to play the victim (again).

Surprised it's took this long for that lot to lodge an appeal against any of there players bans..hope they give him an extra game now that would put redvee into meltdown

Thing is, if I were a referee & I had LMS doing his moaning Cockney geezer routine in my ear everytime I reffed one of their games, I'd probably eventually get hacked off and start to wind them up with a few ropey decisions too...

Ruddy el, he was only charged £50 at Greggs.

You're either the biggest WUM or you're just genuinely full of S H 1 T

Knowles has lost his appeal.

I haven't liked him for a while
