No, who actually, won it?

Looking forward to hearing how this is Mylers fault.

On the hooking debate...with Darryl Clarke I am really concerned we haven't got a big fish in small pond player like Saints got with Shenton.....

Its a harsh description but he's been a shadow of the player he was at Cas.....It has been very obvious Higham has been more of a threat than Darryl and as a team we looked better when Higham was hooker and Clarke was on the bench.

But we have bigger issues than Clarkes form

Philbin had a real positive impact. Penny didn't put a foot wrong. Bridge and Westwood looked crocked.

That has to be the poorest effort from our pack for sone time though.

Watching Carney today just makes it more obvious that we do not have any trophy winning halfbacks.

btw thought Clark went okay today. At least he was playing up the ruck and with his head up.

I didn't take enough notice but the pundits and cameras seemed to be obsessed with images of Todd Carney.

'kin hell.

When did we turn into a team that should be winning every game with ease otherwise we're sh*te?

We lose away at Catalan and suddenly we won't make top 4 and half the team needs shipping out.

Get your heads out of your backsides.

We lose a minimum of 5 games a season, Catalan away almost always being one of them. If anyone needs to look in a mirror it's you 'fans' that are so quick to bash a team you claim to love.

They never actually said.

Thank you for talking some sense here. There were numerous factors against us, injuries and an untried half back pairing being the biggest things, I know Carney and Dureau were too but they're a lot more experienced. Clark is starting to get those wheels turning, Roy is playing like a forward now, Philbin was great with every carry, Penny yet again didn't do much wrong and a lot of things right. Don't think there's any cause for crying just yet.

No structure in attack ,no plan whatsoever & we missed Myler in defence. Cats were not great today but they had structure & a game plan ,which they obviously worked on during training, & they kept hold of the ball better.

Clarke is at his best when we have a quick PTB. Our forwards looked lethargic from the off. The lack of energy was obvious. Philbin showed them how it is done. Defending was a nightmare. Penny came out of the game with credit but Wheeler was poor and our kicking game is not improving any. Catalan kicked us to death. Last weeks game took its toll and we couldn't have picked a worse fixture to follow that. Onwards and upwards but lets us hope Ratchford is back next week.

Forums are about opinions, good or bad, today we stunk, don't expect positivity.

We might make the top four but we have no chance of winning anything without an effective kicking game.

relax........Saints only got 30 points out of 44 against the same 11 teams home and away (22 games) That now make up Super League. That is 15 wins to 7 defeats....

3rd game in, better to play like that at this point than later in the season.

For me-

1) 1st half no intensity, defensive line moving up at an average pace and slowing when reaching point of contact.
2) kicking game average compared to Cats kicking game.
3) some poor defensive errors, Bridge on (I think) 1st try, and Wheeler 2 poor attempts for 2nd try (I think) and for last try.
4) Asotasi looked the forward with most intent
5) Some odd desicion making, like grubber kicking at the post (and missing with ball going dead) when we needed another set of six at a crucial time in the game.

It's 3rd sl game in. We shouldn't panic. Positives- Penny, Philbin and (supposedly) one trick pony Russell's running.
