and more talk this morning about the NRL being in loose talks to invest in Superleague. They won't be doing that to help us, that's for sure!

When I watch Robertson play he reminds me of Kalyn Ponga. Maybe without the lightning pace but he is no slouch.

I think Sailor will hinder his development tho because welsby 1 Sailor 6 is highly likely to be first choice next year

In how many minutes?

Ponga is what I said too when I first saw him in May 2022 against Wigan scholars. First time I saw Farrimond too and they were the best two on the pitch by a distance

Agreed NK. I think he’s a 6 too and that’s where he has played the majority of his youth rugby.

From the brief bits us non Saints fans have seen of him if he can bulk up a bit IMO with his footwork and hands he might be an option at centre for you, definitely looks like a great prospect whatever position he ends up in if you can keep hold of him (NRL, not another SL club)

Best we can do is try and stop them increasing their points difference by 50?

Saints are going to have to throw some money at him and quick.

Did you see the Broncos/Eels game, Stu? Sailor was solid at the back, and scored a lovely solo try, Clint Gutherson couldn't lay a glove on him.

Can see Saints not making the playoffs maybe? Their injury crisis is getting worse and they could end up moving down to fifth today unless they manage a shock win versus an in form Hull KR, as Salford play Huddersfield and should win.

Leeds and Leigh are now snapping at their tails too as well.

The only reason I was routing for a Leeds win last night

Looking forward to todays game, do I shout for Saints or do I shout for HKR oh the dilemma!

A win/win situation as long as we don't mess up tomorrow

I did yeah, he played well. I think he’ll go well next year but Wellens will soon coach that flair out of him. He’ll be dropping off an inside pass and kicking to the corners in no time.

As for today it’s strange going to a game expecting a defeat but that’s the reality. As fast as we get players back we lose more. Bell and Sironen gone from last week and despite being named in the squad, Walmsley has supposedly pulled a quad so we are worse off than last week despite having Lomax and Matautia back.

I just want a good effort today, personally I’d try a couple more kids but he’s very risk averse Wellens so I can still see Davies in there who is a bang average player.
