they had it on teletext though,at the same time.

A great win and one that I admit I didn’t see us getting. Thought Westy was outstanding and made Wigan second guess in defence which is something we rarely make the opposition do.
Think Ellis made a huge difference just by his leadership on & off the pitch. He is a true leader and seriously lack that in the team.
So many performances all round as they stuck together and dug in. Still some daft stuff and Jake needs to curb his mouth but still a massive boost to get 2pts.
Now the work continues as failing to capitalise on today’s performance and result but slipping up against Huddersfield will put us back to square one.
We always seem to the team that teams get their first win against when they are in winless runs.
Hats off to all concerned for getting a result today.
Still think we are a long way off where we should be but as long as we build and move forward from this point then that’s all we can ask for.

Much, much improved team performance. Plenty to work on but still, getting a win on the board is massive.

Have to back up next week, I’ll worry we’ll throw it because of how hopeless Hudds have looked so far, they’re bound to turn it round and spank us

Its a major concern the number of tries we let in just before half time and full time.
It has to be a lack of concentration.
Its the same when we score and the opposition use a short kick off.We seem to switch off and they regain possession.
We make it so difficult for ourselves.We pin Wigan down in their 20 then give away a penalty on the second or third tackle and as a result of the leg up field they score.
Connor mouths off to the referee.Free kick leg up field and they score.
last 2 minutes scrum on their 10 and they go 90 meters and score.
Massive effort from the team,you cant fault that but we have to learn because it happens too often to be a one off.

Monday morning early commute for me after some cold beers in the heat last night
GREAT to see the win !
Thank goodness for Hardaker missing and the boys seeing it through
Hopefully that’s a catalyst
I feared the worst and Ellis made such a difference both on and off the pitch
This group of players are Top 4

“What he (Gareth Ellis) brings before the game, the words he says in the changing room at the right time, with the right temperament and message - he's like a breath of fresh air."

Outrageous dummy by Westy for his try and the pass by Connor for Ratu's first was brilliant.

Let me congratulate you lot at hull..you've made our day Here at saints....let's hope your on the up now..you've had loads of injuries to put up with..good luck for the rest of the season..(and coming from an awld saints speccy never thought I'd say this) ...sneeeeeyed

This hard time we've been through was almost worth it, for days like today.

Great effort by the lads, and the joyous celebrations of the fans when Sneyd kicked that was fantastic. So we'll done to us, enjoy!

Great win Lads .’Well done

Massive relief to get that 13 game monkey off our back, and we deserved a win for the effort we have put in across the 3 games. I didn't think we could win the forward battle without Taylor, but it sounds like a few guys really upped their game today. It should be a great confidence boost, and there are good signs. Our attack seems a lot more varied and expansive this year. With Taylor back in there and Green/Bowden back to fitness we can really ask a lot of questions of teams, not to mention what Kelly can do.

We need to make sure that this is merely a stepping stone to better things though. A win today doesn't right all the wrongs of the last 9 months, but it's progress. Let's back it up next week now and start to get a bit of momentum going.

Maybe Ellis should be the coach

Maybe you should give it a rest.

Maybe you should be, with your vast knowledge of the game.
