I hate to do this to you (well, actually, I don't ) but when Longy was out injured earlier this season, we did Leeds over twice and beat Wakey by a long distance. He won't be missed as we have plenty of options for his spot, all of them very good.

Cunningham, however, is another matter altogether. But he should be back by the semi.

Didn't get a visa did he?

Not on the juice are you?

Shame!

OI!

I didn't have a drop until AFTER the game when I was almost dragged into ther Gas Club. New baby, getting up at 4:30 and Top Gear is not an ideal combo.

Eastmond looks very impressive tonight.

Thought he was fantastic and looks more dangerous than Long going to be a tough semi for us either way.

Now I see why Sean Long was not offered a 2 year contract. I thought his passing, kicking and trys scored were brilliant. He is going to be the one to watch on the day.

After watching tonight's game we need to be on top form to beat St Helens something we have not done for a very long while.

If any of you bothered to go to saints last year you would have seen Eastmond tear us apart,

Cayless unlikely to be back as still out injured and the possibilty Maurie Fasavalu has broken his arm this weekend.

Confrimed that Maurie is out for rest of season.

Graham also got busted wrist ligaments

Looks like Saints may be going into the semi final with only 1 recognised front rower in Hargreaves.

It's not nice seeing players injured but this is great news for us.

Indeed, I hope all the players have a speedy and full recovery.

That said, our chances for winning keep getting better.
