A superb team effort. For me though the biggest positive was the return of Lockers. He's still the man, and Saints have just been reminded of that yet again. Wouldn't swap him for Barba or anyone else in SL. What a player and captain.

Williams back to his best.

Gildarts step of barba

Greenwood’s offloads

Lockers try

Hamlins fend on Wilkin before the Bateman try

Sam Powell’s defence

Even Oli Partington nailing Luke Thompson as soon as he came on the field

We were back to our physical imposing best, mixed in with some fluid attack.

The players seem to have sorted there heads out and our ready for the charge to Old Trafford.

The passion on show from the players when Gildart scored was something else.

Best performance in a long time, defence was superb, for most of the game and we actually looked like a team in attack. Escare looked a threat in broken play - Greenwood was excellent - I was very impressed that when he made a break he didn't panic and throw a bad pass he showed good decision making. All the forwards went well - some very strong hit ups, Navarrette made some good yards and I thought Hamlin looked busy and effective when he came on - looks like a good signing.

And to stop Saints collecting the LLS was the icing on the cake!

There wasn’t a player you could fault and you can just tell we’re on now and ready to have a real tilt at getting to and winning at Old Trafford.

He wasn’t our best player but I’ll pick out Sam Powell for real praise. He has struggled his backside of this season in the halves but back in his proper position he was superb. His mental toughness to bounce back from that tough patch is a credit to him.

We really did miss Sam Tomkins

, Fantastic performance from one and all, Best part of the night for me was the LMS No Try, Made even better due to LMS prancing around like an idiot

I just hope players like Hamlin and Navarrete keep their places once Tautai’s ban is over.

It'll be criminal if Tautai gets straight back in, not a patch on the props who played last night.
Is it just me or was the "finding your front asap" tactic binned last night in favour of trampling the opposition into the ground ?

No it's not just you. I thought that as well.
Also agree about Tautai.

Superb performance. It would be easy to pick out a few individuals for special mention; Greenwood's MOM performance, Powell showing that 9 is by far his best position or Lockers.. well, doing what Lockers does! However, that was a team performance pure and simple. Every player doing their job to the highest level. The same to the end of the season will have us crowned champions.

That result confirmed that on their day they can demolish anyone

Yet again due to work commitments I couldn't get to the game and a bit gutted I wasn't there for a fine performance and what sounded like a decent atmosphere.
I thought all of the players went well but Greenwood in particular stood out.
For the first time in a long time we played with intensity from the first minute and played some decent rugby.
Great to watch and I hope we can keep this up now for the next few weeks and that the props carry on playing like props.
