Quote: SaintsFan "He also left his spot for the first try, leaving Shenton with too much ground to make up. But it was his debut so not to be too harsh on him.

Agreed. Tomkins should be at fullback next time out, regardless of how poor our halfback combo is without him (although it wasn't that much better with him!)

I agree. I also think Briscoe did very well. Roby in the second half was good too, though awful in the first.

Too many errors in the first half gave away copious amounts of possession and field position. Very poor defence from most players throughout. Graham was top dollar in defence and one or two others worked equally hard, but even Westwood, normally such a grafter in defence, decided to tickle the players rather than tackle them on too many occasions.

We looked very promising in the second half, which is unusual as that is normally when we collapse, but we need to (a) get rid of our errors - some of them are ridiculous; (b) defend because even when we had the numbers to cover we opted not to be bothered; (c) get a kicking game; (d) follow up - too many potential try-scoring offloads went unpassed because players were asleep, and (e) keep up 100% effort for the full 80 minutes. We can't do anything about the halfbacks so we have to make the best of what we have. But if we play as we played for about 15 minutes in the second half then we should have a fighting chance against the Aussies. After all, we did beat the Kiwis in the second half. We are capable, even with second/third choice halfbacks. But we have to remember we're in an international, not a friendly, and everyone has to put on their best performance rather than just a few.'"


Goulding didn't leave his spot, he had made the previous tackle (which probably saved a try at that point) and was stood at marker for the play the ball

I see we are witnessing the usual tactic now from Stainsfan.

ie Staying away from the thread having been totally handed her ar$e yet again.
This has happened quite a few times before.....remember the O'Meley / Roby incident at Hull earlier this season when she went into a rage about how there should be a banning, despite not seeing the incident as she wasn't at the game, despite Hull fans stating the clash was legal. She wouldn't have it, stated the SKY red button ticker stated it was a bad challenge?
Well there was no ban, O'Meley didn't even appear before the beak, even other Stains fans agreed it was a poor tackle by Roby.

So what happened next? The threads on here/ VT / Hull board which she had contributed her bile too for days were simply ignored, she had no defence (bit like Roby in that situation), she completely ignored the threads. No apologies, no admittance of being wrong.

I doubt you will see it happening here. She's a troll, who's obviously on a wind up.
Pity she's a troll from a team who wins nowt these days!!!!!

The rest of your guys I thought lockers was not at the races & below par (but far from the worst forward)'"


Seriously? I don't get where this has come from but quite a few have been saying this.

What is off about being the top tackler, taking on some organisational duties, making the breaks and hard yards?

O'Loughlin was very good, along with Graham in the pack, and anyone that says otherwise needs to take the blinkers off. The rest of the pack need to step up big time though.

It's an opinion, I'm not singling out individuals I was commenting purely on your players (As this thread appears to be reasonably normal) but of the other forwards Burgess was a far bigger let down, Ellis was sporadic but made more impact going forward overall than did lockers(IMO of course) Fielden was woeful, Griffin out of his depth. Jammer gave his all & did well but isn't a captain by any stretch & Roby was just above average.
Compared to the limited amounts I have seen him I thought Lockers did not perform as he can and what I have seen of him this season gone he has been immense.
