The club has posted pictures of Willie Isa running on the Brick pitch. Not sure what that means in terms of timescales but it's good to see him back looking healthy. It's always felt like they've kept timescales hush hush in the hope he may pull of a comeback this season. Getting a place in the 17 may be another matter.

That's a lot better than good, outstanding turnout

Hopefully the game lives upto it, last time we came to you we was 12-0 down before i got back from the bar

I noticed to the hush hush on him “out for the season”

Peet won’t be to resist playing him off the bench at old Trafford if we get there for the last game of his career

I wish O’Neill and Cooper were running alongside him.

The main thing is just to see the guy running about again but if there is any chance of him making some games, I wouldn't be surprised to see him get a bench spot. I do think it would have to be in advance of the play offs though (probably for the last regular round fixture) and I'd say it's an extremely long shot. I do wonder if he may play on next year with him losing this season.

I hope not, just look at Saints and the drop off from their older players. Sometimes you need to be ruthless

I get you but Saints have had a lot of players grow old together (Makinson, Percival, Lomax, Walmsley, LMS, Roby etc) and we're not in that position. We have Cooper leaving and then after that there is only really Faz and Isa over the age of 30 and we have a pretty young squad. In fairness I'm not sure I would keep him and would at least like to look around and see if there is a decent (and younger) replacement we could bring in but if he did decide to play on and there wasn't much out there, I wouldn't be against him being a squad player again in 2025. There is also the possibility that he decides to play on elsewhere next year.

Harry Smith. Discipline. Bin.

Anyone know why we are playing in away kit ?

Tries conceded were quite soft. Few too many errors for a big game. But right in it.

Something to do with the brick charity.
Bloody madness
