SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

I think Joel is fortunate to get in there.
Percival was a BIG miss for us when he decided to join Saints. He has all the hallmarks of a great centre in the future.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.......
I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.

Are we talking Sarginson or Percival here?
You keep Gelling and Sarginson, we'll keep Percival - everyone's happy. |

These kind of threads only serve two purposes;
1-They divide people on tribal loyalites, Gelling vs Percival is a perfect example of this. On the one side the Wigan fans will pick Gelling as they've seen him week in, week out produce the goods and likewise it sounds like Percival has done the same. Realistically the only chance either set of fans get to see the other teams players are when they play against certain teams or when they are on sky.
2- It depresses me as to how poor SL has become. We have just combined players from what are two of the biggest three clubs in the land and there's a few decent lads in there such as Lockers and Roby but if you go back just over 10 years and Murrayfield it would have looked something like this (again subjective)
Radders
Dallas
Gleeson
Connolly
Albert/Carney
Long
Lam
Faz
KFC
Smith
Joynt
Furner
Scully
That is some team imo and the backline is a class above what will be on show on Saturday.
Sad times how far we have slipped as a sport.
