I'm sure I read or heard that he picked up an injury in the game against Widnes

I thought saints looked bang ordinary without barba last night. Had they fielded the same team against us last week I reckon we'd have won

Agree with you there Jake and also thought that St's got all the decisions particular in the messing about in the ruck/holding down and Wilkin should have seen at least a yellow for his trip on Tomkins which was a clear professional foul.

Although not at their best, I would not describe it as ordinary. They were better then Wigan in most facets of the game. One thing to note was the pace of the game which was rapid.


Wigan did themselves no favours with poor last plays and kicks

wigan aren't very good though. The defended OK but their attack was woeful.

I think they suffer from the same issues we have (not converting possession within the opposition 20 into points). They do however consistently move the ball downfield well (60-70 yards per set) as was evidenced against us recently.
