see all the players took the knee along with alstone, not a keen fan of this, racism is wrong in any form

Pretty impressive first half from Saints. Thought Catalans started brightly too but Saints just too good. Hope it's not a blow out score.

I have mixed feelings about gestures of this type, as they can end up being an easy alternative to meaningful action. Similar to clapping NHS workers. Also, once started when is it stopped? It’s pretty much bound to be premature in thIs context.

On the other hand, what else or more can the sport do? And it probably annoys some folk who, imo, deserve a bit of grit in their shoe.

Looking like it might be now.

Enjoying the fast pace, and not missing scrums at all.

as i say racism is wrong in any form, saints looking good, very fast game

Nicely put

Me too, glad Catalans are on the scoresheet but Saints in commanding form. Good quality from both given the long hiatus too.

Watching the speed of the game, think we must have another hooker on the bench.

Saints looked very good, as usual Catalans flatter to recieve, poorly coached IMO, started the season well due to Tompkins and Maloney.

Saints looked very good, no signs of rustiness. Odd to think that we don't play them until November - unless we get them in the Cup semi or final of course.

Not a fan at all
its hypocrisy by most players in sport doing this because come the time when we have fans back in the grounds they wont be doing it

Mild Rover has it spot on re: the taking of the knee.

I guess the RFL and Super League didn't really have a choice with this as all other major team sports have been doing it. In which case it kind of loses the point.

Still, if it winds up or upsets a few people then so be it.

Bright start from Huddersfield.

Isn't it nice watching a Leeds home game without the band?

Great finish to this one
