3076_1671446335.jpg 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 |

| Quote: DaveO "A lot depends on whether French comes back and is fit and if Field turns out to be a good player. Otherwise we are in the same boat as last season with all our attack going through one player, Cust instead of Hastings. TL is past it and Powell isn't good enough on attack which is why French and/or Field are important. The coaching team can play a part here and if it's obvious there are issues with these two I'd expect them to act rather than make them automatic selections. Same goes across the park really. I am hoping to see some assertive coaching dealing with any issues rather than trying the same thing over and over if it's not working. If the coaches do that we are already in a better position than last season.'"
I don't think Cust will try to be drummer, lead violinist, trumpeter and conductor. Hopefully that will allow other players to do their jobs particularly not having any of the kickers caught on the 4th tackle.

| I asked over the phone when i bought mine, we will be getting physical cards this season through the post.
The club also updated in an article a couple of days ago saying the cards will be posted out imminently, so any day now i would imagine.

Well it worked, pre season at Wire 7 hours trip, last night at Hull bit easier as only 6 1/2 hours, would have been less if we didn't turn onto the closed A63 route initially, cost us half an hour. Booked for Friday as well, means a mad dash after work on Friday as it's a 100 mile trip, but the rugby being played is worth it. Nice to have some enthusiasm and excitement for the game again. Last night was the best atmosphere at a game in many years for me.

Yep, it's 75 miles from home to Wigan, an hour from work to home on a friday, and the journey across the Peak District to Wigan is the worst I can think of, but we shall be there somehow! If I go straight from work in Nottingham it's 100 miles, but an easier journey. Hull is all Motorway so dead easy ( so long as the roads are open).
For the first time in years it seems like the effort is worth it for what's on display.
