The muppets on Sky made a big deal about it. Stevo called them unprofessional and it seems to have touched a nerve.

There are other ways to raise money for charity (e.g. everyone throw in £10 into a kitty for each try we score) without running the risk of getting slaughtered and looking like a bunch of complete bells.

Still, that boat has sailed now

Still, that boat has sailed now

Jamie Foster runs about with a daft haircut every week, I don't see why it should distract them. Leeds were quite simply second best by far on the night and were soundly beaten by a Saints side with fire in their belly.

Daft hairdo's has never stopped the Aussies handing us our ar5es for 39 years has it

Seems to me like a load of nonsense from a typical Stevo rant begging for the flatcap, whippet and a pint of mild days.

Stevo seemed to think Leeds were going to steam roller Saints (and tipped them to) from the beginning and seemed to spend the next 30 minutes trying to justify why that wasn't happening, without acknowledging the fact that Saints were simply running hot for the first 25 minutes and blew them away.

It could have been worse . We could have lost to Widnes

I think that Peacock and McDermott are - to paraphrase - protesting too much. The team was off its game from the off, Sts were up for it. If Leeds had been genuinely up for that game - e.g. like they were for the Manly game - they would have only lost by a fraction, if at all.

I blame the "Rugby Gods"

The only response to this is the proverbial, "and if pigs had wings ..."

There was a gulf between those two teams last night that left me totally gobsmacked.

Whatever it was, I think it would have taken a bit more than Leeds "being up for it" to have reversed that result in any meaningful way.

Leeds were certainly very poor , but could it be that Saints wanted to play for their new coach after getting rid of RS who they did not want to play for ./

Exactly what I said last night.

Saints were obviously going to be fired up last night and seeing the Rhinos would have only added fuel to that fire. There are hundreds of ways to generate money for charity that do not wind up the opposition .
