Speaking of Farrimond, I'm pretty sure he was called up to the England academy squad.

Why did he not play? Was he not selected, or did we pull him because he's playing on Friday?

I still think back to their reaction when we announced Peet & his assistants (shopping at home bargains was it?)

Ill be honest, I wasnt overly keen either but its worked out very well so far

I would be very interested to read what our Saints friends have to say. I think this problem runs far deeper than Paul Wellens. Questions need to be asked regarding why significant contract extensions were given to some of their players in the twilight of their careers, the quality of recent recruitment, problems with retention that has not been encountered previously, and the need to promote players who obviously are not up to the job. Are Saints in financial difficulty? I hope not, we need to see a competitive St Helens team.

Saints have just come to end of their cycle.

They have a great run and made the most of it winning the GFs.

A lot of their best players have got old, injury prone etc.

They’ll still be competitive but they’ll be in transition for a couple of years (as we were under Lam)

Last night was one of the worst perfomances i've seen in 53 years of watching Saints no idea in attack awful kicking as per
Then in his presser Wellens threw the players under the bus
Plus Dodd having a go at the fans at the end of the game

I can see Saints having a decent dig to start with on Friday as a reaction from yesterday so we need to be up for them early on.

This has got me thinking, will they put in a better performance than Leigh did against us last night, I thought they played really well overall but in the end our class came through.

We owe Saints big time for Good Friday where I thought we let ourselves down but we're unlucky to have a few decisions go against us. I think winning this Friday could really give us momentum going through the rest of the season, no doubt Peet has given the players targets to meet.
