Im so glad Saints have been playing better because if they had carried on playing so bad we would no doubt of been too confident and totally ballsed it up. Now we wont understimate them and the whole team will know we have to play well to win. I know we lost against Wire but if we can put that level of performance in again without the daft errors we have a great chance imo.

Quote: tugglesf78 "Prescott has more heart in his little finger than Perry has in his flabby belly. laffranchi is showing decent form, but for my money Mossop is currently the best prop in SL.

I would rate Hansen and Sia on par tbh. Both are capable of a crunching tackle, both graft hard but Hansen is not is as likely to miss a tackle (and he makes much more). Soliola is better at making the meters granted, but i would not swap HH for Soliola. I would imagine you would not do the same for Sia.

TP is one hell of a player but then again Hock is devastating with ball in hand. Again i would not swap.

Roby is undeniably the best 9 in SL and perhaps the 2nd best in Wold RL. I just hope he can still function properly after MM rattles him a few times.

We have also got Lima backing up from the bench and he has been bush wacking all before him this year.

Now i know that you have won a few games now, buts lets not be silly. Perry is going to get handed his ar$e of the Wigan pack.

If the Moose is anywhere near full fitness we will have too much fire power for you.'"



Your right I would not swap Sia for HH. Hock and TP I would say are similar players but I would rate TP a class ahead of Hock. If you imagine Hock without the penalties and the ability to carry the ball more meters in the tackle then that would be TP.

You would be absolutely correct about Perry 2 weeks ago, I do think he was one of the players who wanted the coach out, there where a few who were unsure about Royce but the difference in a weeks performance from Perry would suggest his performances where well below what they could have been.

It's only been 2 weeks for us and yes it could be a false dawn for us, so far people are happy to say the other side played poorly. Can't comment on the Wire game from the USA, I listen to the 2nd half though and our defense sounded awesome.
I saw the Leeds game live and yes we stormed ahead but there was a good 60 mins left and Leeds could have pulled back one or 2 tries before half time. Again our defense held firm and stopped any possibility of a comeback.

I think our focus under Royce was heavily on defense, but Ironically without any attacking plays, we just end up defending for 80 mins.
Now under (RC & Rush) we are attacking again, it gives the opposition more of a challenge as they can't just concentrate on breaking us down, but also have to worry about our strike power coming at them.

Quote: Jukesays "I agree, but not I'm not overly worried by it because a quick glance at other teams records shows that there defence isn't sparkling either?

Yet conceded far less against the Top teams???

Correct IMO.

PLUS

I think teams are getting used to the new 10 substitute rule and I think that may be having an effect on intensity with players having to play in slightly longer spells?

Me too!
Saints are the best team in the world again, we've got no chance, how can anyone possibly live with their sparkling brilliance?

I'm glad you've come to that realisation early mate! icon_wink.gif

Prescott and Mossop v Perry and La Franki
Hansen and Hock v Sia and TP

Yep we only have Roby whose better....
You're maybe in with a shout about TP (I can't spell his name either) but right now I'd prefer Hock. As for Perry, icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif I think you might want to reconsider that one, regardless of how he's played in the last two games. La Franki, apart from having another hard name to spell, is good but Mossop is better. I still maintain that a low or error free Wigan, are a good 15/20 points better than a low or error free Saints.

We still managed to beat you in the playoffs last season and even at that point we where not running like we currently are. Like I say it maybe just a brief respite for us Saints fans. But so long as we keep up the performances I'll be happy. Win, lose or draw.

If you had come to Saints fans after the Bradford game and offered Saints 1 win from the next 3 then most would probably have bitten your hand off.

2 wins from 3 and we are already in dreamland.

If we get 3 from 3 then we are really back in the fight, but if not so long as the performance is good we'll be happy as larry.

Every team has known how vital Roby is for years now and haven't really been able to stop him. Same with Sam for us, he's there x factor and star player and stopping the pair of them is very very difficult. Hopefully, MM can knock seven bells out of him in first 20.
