Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

| Quote: MadDogg "You're right actually. Carney never came over here did he? Did Bird play half a season for them or something?'"
Bird played most of the season for them. He was class when he played 13. Proves just how good he is when he got back into the NSW side almost straight away. |

Is a good first 17.

This is Saints we're talking about though. They're only a couple of weeks away from their next injury crisis

Carney
Dureau
Pryce
That's actually quite scary, considering they have Bosc as well.

They don't have Carney yet.
Dureau and Pryce is a class partnership though.
I think we will see Catalans splashing a lot more cash now they have developed their stadium, they now have much better income. The sooner they get the rest of the stadium sorted, the better. |

| Course, we knew Pryce was off to Catalonia a while back on this board ![]()
I think he looks a great talent myself.

Two poor signings for me. They've signed Laffranchi about two years too late and I can't wait to see Lance under the high ball

| Quote: Pemps "Bird was outstanding in his latter games for Catalan. He was easily the best player in SL for mine.'"
Bird is a top class player and is current soo player. Carney wouldn't get a visa to play in England as he's had few problems.
On the subject of pryce, I'd like to have kept him but wasn't to bothered if we'd let him go and reach him with a quality stand off but that won't happen. My biggest worry was letting him go and not replace him.
IMO we ain't spending to the cap and looking to do things o bthe cheap by using the youth as a disguise. We've had KC, longy, gidley, pryce, Graham and eastomond all leave or leaving in the last few years and all will be top earners. |

Your youth at the moment is proving it's worth but I agree you require a few quality signings to maintain competitive at the top of the league. |

I wish Leon all the best,he has been an excellent player for us and a 3 year deal as he is almost 30 Saints would never have matched.
Our squad is looking a bit thin for next season but I am expecting one more signing and hopefully we can still compete which I have no doubt we will.

Sorry but a 30 year old pryce on a 3 year deal is better than a 29 year old Hohaia on a 4 year deal.. IMO of course. |

The length of the contract was a sticking point between saints and pryce. I find that strange as we've give perry (30) a three year deal, hohaia (29) a four deal, laffranchi (30) a two year deal and TP (32) a two year deal. |
