SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

I'd probably go with Manfredi on the wing (if he comes through Wednesday o.k) and Escare on the bench.

Would it be safe to say Escare is fully fit now ?
A couple of months ago he looked like he was dragging a fridge behind him when put in the clear, no-one was catching him at the weekend, great to see.

All the good music has already been written by people with wigs and stuff.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_75893.jpg |

| Quote: Grimmy "Yeah I think the Marshall injury forces our hand to a certain extent. Escare is too short to defend kicks effectively on the wing. Teams would target him big time. Plus it makes the kick to the corner a none-option for ourselves.'" He's the same height as Jason Robinson, I seem to recall he had no problem on the wing |

Mullen is a quality option for the wing also, we really are quite blessed in that position. Marshy is likely out till Mid-March/Early-April 2020.

It was a different game back then though. Opposition wingers generally weren't as tall, and the kick to the corner wasn't as prominent. |

At least a fullback on the wing should be comfortable under the high ball. I am all for rewarding players who have done well as a way of encouraging them to work hard. There is no need to rush Manfredi back whilst Morgan is performing well.

John Kear spotted it at Wembley in 1998!! |

Wouldn't rule out Manfredi playing again this season, makes a nice incentive for him and with our injuries on the wing, there's a fair chance that we'll need him.
All that said, there isn't a cat in hell's chance that'd let him play any part in the Saints game, even if it means playing someone else out of position.
We'll have several games after that which are almost dead rubbers. If he's genuinely ready, play him in those.

I agree with this. Especially considering that Escare has a fair amount of experience on the wing. And Mullen, although he didn’t possess the explosiveness of Marshall or Burgess, looked assured and solid when he played on the wing earlier in the year. |
