Illustrates the huge problem with Super League that Saints' early season struggles has absolutely no impact on their ability to win the title.
If there was a top 5 or even top 6 system maybe this wouldn't be the case.

If second place is what you seek , then i take my hat off to you...well done..Even last season you could see that Saints were about to sink like a stone...fair play you got to the final again, but were totally outclassed by an average Leeds side...there is no way that you will be in any final this year under your current coach! |

My thoughts exactly. The fact Leeds were crowned champions after the start they had last year makes a mockery of the competition. Cullen was spot on when he said that neither coach will be particularly ar*ed about loosing. Their main concern will be keeping their players healthy. |

But it's always a bad sign when you have to dip into the past to find consolation ... as one of your lot said to us a few years ago.  |

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

The difference is that Leeds had plenty of injuries, along with adjusting to life under a new coach. I didn't think they would win the GF, but it was clear their early season form was not a true reflection on those players.
Last season saints had a poor start but they had the eternal effort of Roby and Graham keeping them going, that partnership has now been cut in half. What kept them fresh last season was the introduction of regular spots for the likes of Lomax and Gaskell. That honeymoon period has now run its course. I can't see where they will get their inspiration from in all honesty.
From what I am hearing from saints fans, it sounds like their worst home performance for a long, long time. It shocks me that there was no late comeback from the red vee, not guts, no determination. None of the things you usually expect from saints.
So far this season they have beaten London in the first game, London are currently one of the worst teams and everyone has beaten them. They then played Salford and were outplayed for large parts of the match, perhaps the Langtree Park first game factor got them through? Since then they scraped a draw against Hull KR and then lost the last 3. Saints have gone 4 games without a win. Someone please tell me the last time that happened! |
