Quote Axeman="Axeman"The only thing I can think is that Stains wanted an Australian Assistant coach to take over a Super League Team (wonder where they got that idea from). As they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
Pity they have got it so wrong.'"
I think some people are jumping the gun a bit. Saints didn't look so bad against us on the opening day, did they?! Then they thrashed Salford, and lost narrowly to a very good Wolves team.
OK, they've limped a bit since then, with an unconvincing win against Catalans, and the loss last night to Quins (when they were very poor by all reports), but I can't see them playing like that every week, can you? They've still got some of the best players in SL, and if they can get Eastmond firing again (or someone else for that matter), then they'll still be challengers. Don't forget they've still got Roby - who may not give the team the pyschological boost that Cunningham did, but he's still easily the best hooker in SL (and was last year too).
Don't get me wrong, I won't be shedding any tears if they do fall apart - it's just that that's not what's happening - not yet anyway. This could easily turn out just to be a blip.
