Standard thing after any head injury, prior to first game back.

Indeed, but we need to start planning for the future beyond Ellis, other players need to "step up"

Step up? Other players need to start building a ladder.

Fair point, they have long way to go to be comparable to Ellis

Ellis Out

Well lets face it he was an overpaid & past it player when he signed for us wasn't he according to fountains of knowledge in East Hull and Leeds.

Probably go down as being one of the best players to have played in the world of RL let alone to serve our club. Will any other English player do what he did in the NRL? Josh Hodgson may come close.

Its not just his ability as a player on the field but his leadership both on and off the field that we will need to replace when he calls it a day.

Bit of blow he's been ruled out for the St's game but a chance for someone to step up and prove their worth. We should still have enough to see off what I have to say is one of the worst St's sides I have seen in decades.

dangerous to right saints of, still have some quality players on the pitch, saying that we should be looking at 2 points but might be closer than some are predicting

It will be close, I never expected the score at Huddersfield, especially after the dire performance at Salford

Not righing off St's at all but believe the 17 we put out without Ellis is still stronger than the 17 St's have and should be enough to win at home.

For me in the games I've seen of St's this season they look awful and Cunningham looks like he has the same touch for them as Agar did for us.
If we do not win I would be more than a little disappointed as think if we are to build on last season then games like this even though we have not hit form yet are games we should be winning.

I think we'll win, but I doubt it will be a big margin

Weather looks to be OK for tomorrow night. Hopefully Kelly and Sneyd can build on last weeks win and run the show for us.

if you look at the saints forum (red vee) they are not confident in the slightest and are pretty scathing of cunningham's team selections and he stands accused of putting square pegs in round holes. they think he's the worst coach in their history.

Similar to what people thought about Agar!

2 points for saints then lol
