| Incidentally looks like Briers is coming to Saints after all. Matt Shaw and John Davidson now reporting. I was told this on the 9th June on a night out and laughed at the lad who told me. Looks like he was spot on.
And Saints are appealing the appeal for Mbye. Must think we have a real chance.

| Quote: Stu M "Fair points however as much as Hurrell is a turnstile in defence, he offers an attacking threat close to the line as evidenced by his try on Good Friday
Also yes you are right in that Whitley and Wingfield would not be in a first choice 17 but they would be first choice replacements. So instead of those we are looking at Royle and Davies- a huge drop off
There is no doubt Wigan have the stronger squad and I know you are missing a few too, I just feel that our absentees will impact us much more.'"
Hurrell, Walmsley and Makinson are massive metre makers against us in the past. The first 2 are good for an offload too.
Other than Paasi we seem to handle the others okay.
If however is playing hooker holds up okay for us, it should be a Wigan win.

| Quote: Stu M "Looking more and more likely that Dodd has been dropped, Welsby to 6, Lomax to 7 and Robertson making his debut at FB. Huge call by Wellens and a last roll of the dice. Had he had 10-15 mins earlier in the season against the likes of London he would've been more prepared.
Now he's thrown in against the best team in the comp away from home.'"
Gotta start somewhere.

Ben Davies is an interesting one. I’ve always liked him. Think he could do a job in SL for a lot of clubs.
I’m not saying we should be all over him but I think their is potentially a very good player in there.

Genuinely not sure what games you have been watching him in or how many but he is the epitome of bog standard. Him and Royle are just not Saints standard.

| I think the truth around Davies is somewhere in between the two posts above. He was far more impressive under Woolf than he has been recently, whether that's through tactics or lack of opportunity I'm not sure. I don't see where he ever starts regularly for an ambitious club but a good reserve to have with a bit of utility. I think he could get a bigger contract and a starting gig in lower SL but wouldn't be surprised if he stayed in a similar role he has now.
