They were added to the list just to ensure the Team bus knew the way to Sir Matt Busby Way

Quote: JWarriors "All 6 of them won the grand final last year. They’re very good players.'"


Spot on.

As for a relegation dogfight we are closer to 5th than we are to relegation (and are the same number of points away from 4th than bottom) but everyone seems to overlook that.

Here is a genuine question to all the Saints fans.....

Your equivalent to our side on Good Friday would be, and feel free to offer better alternative replacements:

Coote, Swift, Costello, Percival, Grace, Fages, Welsby, Walmsley, Lomax, Douglas, Peyroux, Ashworth, Lees
Bentley, Amor, Taia, Knowles

You then lose Swift after 20 minutes and move Peyroux to centre and Costello to the wing.

How do you get on and how many weeks can you play a similar side or a side missing your entire first choice pack (Walmsley, Roby, Thompson, Taia, Paulo, Knowles) before you start to lose games?

I would Think the team you posted above would win more games than they would lose.
Your 4 points off the bottom place London and 16 points off top place saints.Your 7th place in the league out of 12.The only way you would alter our chances of getting to Old Trafford would be to have a Terry Newton type of player causing mayhem.

I don't remember Catalans or Warrington having to cause much 'Terry Newton style mayhem' in last years semi finals?

Although Catalans did cause mayhem at Bolton, the game was over by half time wasn't it? icon_lol.gif

Quote: NickyKiss "Remind me who one of the greatest coaches of all time picked at centre out of Gildart and Percival last year will you please?

It’s slipped my mind.'"


Doesn’t mean he was right does it? Gildart got torn a new one at Anfield anyway. Also, out of interest, which centres were chosen in the dream team? I take it Gildart was, as he’s so good.

A team chosen by journalists or one chosen by Wayne Bennett. Mmmmm, which one should I choose to respect most? eusa_think.gif

Well, you have started a thread dedicated to us.

Last season Percival scored 20 try’s, set 17 up. Whereas Gildart scored 13 and set 8 up. Percival is far better and the stats back that up.

Percy isn’t fit to lace Gildart’s boots. Let’s not forget, Mr Bennett also opted to play a second rower at centre instead of him too!

You’re arguing against statistics with one mans opinion.
