| Saints look a mile ahead at the moment but the challenge cup is 3 months away, teams don’t always sustain that sort of form for the whole season, I’m not saying they won’t be just as good then but in seasons past the best team at mid season doesn’t always take the honours. A few seasons back Leeds looked woeful and took a few hammerings, made the GF from fifth or sixth but in the final they were outstanding and looked nothing like the team from three months previous

| I was genuinely surprised at how we (Wire) played on Saturday given our truly abysmal showings the previous 2 weeks.
Price has obviously drilled into them the game plan - kicking game, strong chase and big efforts to restrict meters in tackles 1 to 3 based on line speed and numbers, BUT fair play to Hull. You took chances when they came and we never really looked like we'd shake you off until the final try. Ratu showed great speed and stood up our defence like a kipper, and the Kelly kick was top draw.
Radford pointed out the deficiency - high kick defence - and I can well understand his frustration if you'd been working on it all week.
I counted the wrong calls by the ref and I saw 4 that went against you - including the Shawl break which I didn't think was a knock on. There was 1 against us. I've counted worse but even so...
Onward and upward.
I actually am In 2 mins about getting to Wembley. Depends which Wire turn up.
We could get totally stuffed.
You may yet have the last laugh.
