Probably the odd game but that doesn’t change the fact that he’s a better 13 than a front row and when he’s at 13 we look a better team

It seems a while since we had Ben down at Belle Vue

We might have the best referee in super league on Sunday, just hope he doesn't need to rely on either of the two touch judges.

Especially after last week with that HKR penalty that never found touch!

He'll huff and he'll puff and he'll blow his house down

I'll get my coat......

Whoever plays in the centres will be up against Hurrell and one of their second row forwards.

However plays for us , if we can put half the passion and effort into our games as those horrible lot the Rhinos, we certainly won’t disgrace ourselves.As much as it hurts me to say this , I’ve not seen our team play with that intensity for years , if ever

Shame that intensity was missing last week.

And the week before!

It’s usually about Friday when you begin to think that maybe just maybe they will emulate the team from our first season that beat Saints at Oakwell or the victory when our winger scored despite his shorts hanging round his knees. It is then that you remember they may not have been the best individually but they were a team unfortunately our current squad, in the majority no longer live up to this standard. It could be complacency, bad coaching but whatever the cause they are failing the supporters.
I hope they watched the Leeds game so they may learn what it means to have pride in the shirt they wear and a desire to fight for the supporters who will carry on supporting long after they have left. They may be transient Trinity representatives who have a choice where they play unfortunately the supporters do not.
I will probably make this my last season regardless of the outcome but it will not stop me being a Trinity supporter despite what Vastman might think and that why I am angry we are in this position again.

Even then we nearly threw it away by conceding a last minute penalty.

Saints squad for the trip as follows.

1. Jack Welsby, 5. Regan Grace, 6. Jonny Lomax, 8. Alex Walmsley, 9. James Roby, 10. Matty Lees, 12. Joe Batchelor, 14. Joey Lussick, 15. LMS, 16. Curtis Sironen, 17. Agnatius Paasi, 19. Jake Wingfield, 20. James Bell, 22. Ben Davies, 23. Konrad Hurrell, 24. Dan Norman, 27. Jon Bennison, 28. Lewis Baxter, 29. Dan Hill, 31. Taylor Pemberton, 34. George Delaney.

Shame we are missing so many players.

Really hoping we can pull a special win out of the bag.
