Yes. They were your words, that we have never been missing 5,6 or 7 to injury. We clearly have.

| These were the teams the last match we played. Granted I don't know enough about Saints, but I would say 2 missing and 1 out of position. Feel free to correct me.
Wigan have 5 missing off the top of my head with 3 out of position and at least 1 sub that wouldn't have been in the 17.

That wasn't a one off either as Isa played at centre all season and Faz probably played more games there than he did at SR. At one stage we were missing our entire 3/4s.
When did Saints last have that sort of issue for a prolonged period of time?
As NK has said - you have the best 17 by a mile but whenever you decide to rest players you get beat so a selection crisis as above would see you playing as utterly dross as we were.

You put this in speech marks (so therefore implying I’d said this word for word)-
“But it’s a fact you have not had 5 players missing all at once”
Never said it

| Quote: NickyKiss "You’ve not answered the question. Will you be a better side with Hopoate at fullback, rather than Welsby? My memory of Hopoate as a fullback is as a pretty average one and he’s lost pace since those days. Cade Cust has played as much at hooker as he has in the halves in his first team career at Manly and Field has played more halfback. So I can’t say Field is a specialist fullback but I also can’t say we may be better with him at 6?! Makes sense

Doesn't matter when he was injured, he was missing the game through injury.

Perhaps you should stop stating these "facts" mate
So let’s get this straight, Saints have had injury problems like everyone else and in over 4 seasons you’ve found a solitary game you had 5 first teamers missing?!
Mate, you’re doing everyone’s work for them.
Get back to that Saints website with your pencil.

Eh?! That makes no sense. NK claimed Saints have never been without 5, 6 or 7 first team players due to injury. I just proved they have.
If anything, preparing for one side and ending up with another is worse.

Hahahaha nice try,. you're twisting things now. I never claimed we have had the same injuries as everyone else.
Let's make this really really simple - you said it was a FACT that we have NEVER been missing 5 team players with injury. I have just proved you wrong. Literally end of story.
Just admit you were wrong, go on....
